Dog kennel ideas

[Liamc 34]

Just moved house to something with a much bigger garden, going to get a concrete base and some drainage sorted within next couple weeks. Wanted to see some pictures of other peoples set ups before I decide on mine and wondering what size people have their pens? My last house they just had the run of the yard. I have two lurchers mother and daughter kept together. Any info/pics will be appreciated.

Mother is the blue bitch, she’s collie/bull/grey

The dog I lined her with had a bit of all sorts in him to be honest. Was a great looking dog. She had a litter of 10 all good healthy pups.

Im waiting to move house as want to get more dogs for trialling and working. 
 

I’ve spent ages looking at loads of different options but think there’s big pro’s and cons between different setups.

 

I’d avoid wood totally now, and myself I am leaning heavily to the KM engineering setups, as if you ever do move you can take them down and move them with you. 
 

It’s a lot of money for a block / brick building and all the time I hear of lads splitting up with the Mrs or anything.

My mate with indoor kennels has noticed the dogs coats aren’t as thin and weather resistant as they were when his kennels were just outside pens.

What size are the pens dc? You got a bigger one for the runner?

terrier runs were 5 ft x 5 ft,2 m high...lurcher run was 3.5 m x 2.2 m with the box on the outside
