the big chief 3,099 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 The bottom one looks like mine but my grandad made mine at a fraction at what that probly costs buy some wood and build one good project for the summer Quote Link to post
Jesslurcher 25 Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 http://www.reeveskennels.co.uk/ or I've also seen some pretty decent ones on ebay. Honestly I wouldn't spend the money on one when you can build it for a fraction of the price yourself. I had my pen made a few months ago, its roughly 18 x 12 foot but I only had to buy panels for 2 sides as I used the garden fence and shed for the other two. It cost roughly £500 for it all but it could have been done cheaper if I had of bought second hand panels. Looks the part, easily maintained and plenty of room for a stretch 2 Quote Link to post
FUJI 17,328 Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 I bought this for mine,not to cheap I must admit but I won a few £££££ on the horses so payed for it with that so basically it was a "freebie " lol...got a few hanging baskets etc on it now,looks quite neat and tidy... 5 Quote Link to post
redcharge 378 Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 I wouldn't bother with timber. Galv runs, box section roofing and sleeping box would be my choice. 1 Quote Link to post

bobby blackheart 1,209 Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 cheaper to buy the sections and build it yourself-depends on the room you have-but first sort your drainage out-dont matter how fancy your kennels look- bad idea if they stink of piss all the time so think of that first.atb 1 Quote Link to post
paulus 26 Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 has already said build your own to suit the available space, apart from the kennel on the right this lot cost about £50 including all the galvanised panels and plastic windows. Recycled wood can be picked up daily Quote Link to post

Looks the part, easily maintained and plenty of room for a stretch has ur dog ever jumped out of that run Funny you say that, I seen her trying it the other day and had to move the box into the middle so she can't hop onto the box and out. Trying to figure out what I can put round the top to stop her though Edited May 31, 2013 by Jesslurcher Quote Link to post
