[nottzhunter08 898]

ive got abit of space but not enough for 3 kennels lol my idea is to concrete a good section of my garden split it into 2 and have a well made dog box in each one pal. bitch in one the two dogs in the other. cheers for advice guys

nottzhunter, I wouldn't kennel two males together. For runs, I wouldn't go any smaller than say 10x4.

 

Good luck with whatever you decide.

My dogs runs separate are 5 ft x 4 ft out 2 good walks a day if the dogs are brought up together from pups don't see the problem with them being together mines were for 5 years never had a problem there run then was 8 ft x 6 ft plenty room

[nottzhunter08 898]

So how much space do you have? Wouldn't be me kennelling 2 dogs tbh

[nottzhunter08 898]

i have enough space for two runs mate. the dogs have lived fine together up to now so cant imagine it being any different once there kenneled. cheers

Not being funny mate but you've asked for advice on kennel sizes, you've been given it, you say you don't have enough room, so were asked he much room and still you've not told us the area size you have to work with so how can anyone help you? If you tell people the area size you have then maybe youll get advice

My run is 12ft long by 10ft wide with a 6x4 shed as a kennel. I keep a Saluki X (24.5") and a Deerhound cross (26") in there and they have plenty of room to eat, sleep, do their business and have a bit of a play around

[nottzhunter08 898]

ive 20ft lenght and 14ft width of area to play around with.

2 dogs together wouldn't be that bad if there wasn't a bitch next to them. They will scrap when she's in season.

[sikastag_1 689]

Then you've room for 2 10x5 kennels and a 10x4 with cabins in them or with 10 foot runs and a shed block with beds on the back and storm drains outside the front end or I'd maybe make 3 10x4s depending how tight you'll be to the edge of the concrete, plenty room for a block of 3 mate

iv'e a block of 2 kennels/runs. each kennel is 5ft x 4ft. each run is 6ft x 4ft. Ample when they are out twice a day. They only use the run to sleep/sun bathe in. They are both fed and watered in the kennels so they can't see each other eating. Dog's need their own space and this is why i would never bed 2 down together at all.
