dog pens

i dont think making a kennel out of breez blocks is a good idea ferretuk.

a friend of mine living in wales had a show dog it was an english bull terrier. that won a lot of shows in wales and every country in the uk .england scotland ireland.

a top judge was up his house 1 day and my friend was telling him that he is having trouble keeping weight on the dog. when the judge said what kennel have you got to which he replyed a new block kennel the dog has only been in it for a few month's.the judge said that the dog was using up a lot of energy just keeping warm in the block kennel. and it would be like a fridge in the winter holding all the cold.my friend picked up a sledge hammer there and then and smashed the block kennel to bits and got on the phone and ordered a wood 1.within a few week's the dog had put weight on and kept in on.

go for wood mate

edited to add. on a cold frosty morning go out side and feel how much colder a brick or a block is compared to a 2/4 piece of wood the differenc will be plain to see

 

HAD HE NEVER HURD OF A HEATER MINES BRICK BUILT, HEAT LAMP ON THEM 24/7 AT THE MO, SOMTIMES WHEN ITS REAL COLD A PUT THE CONVECTOR HEATER ON

do you also take them a cooked breakfast of bacon and eggs and a cup of tea every morning.

fair comment but how many dogs sleep out in run if the sleeping quarter is warm dont think you should worry too much about breeze blocks been cold ya could always knit it a big thick dog jacket

i am thinking of doing three course in breeze block and put a wooden frame around with mesh on and for the sleeping area build up a breeze block frame with a wood roof felted

Just build the sleeping area out of wood and some bedding cushty. long live the breeze block. Isn't this the buy and sell ting?

well what if you insulated it , put some 50mm or thicker kingspan/cellutex board down , then put ply board over for strength for the floor

line the walls too and same thing again , kingspan on the walls and cover with ply

and to top it iff add in a heat lamp leave on for an hour or so at night to warm it up and insulation should hold the heat in

USE THERMALITE BLOCK THAT WILL KEEP YOU DOG WARM
