Thank you Andy Papadimitropoulos for building them for me. Thank you also Carl Post, Andre Ruggieri, and Bill Ashcraft for all of your help. I appreciate the time and effort everyone put into building and setting them up.

I can't believe how well it's designed, thought out, and the amount of craftmanship. From the tiled box floors, the puppy feeding area built into the whelping box, heavily insulated boxes, and summer/winter doors. The list just goes on!

This is only 1/2 the kennels the rest are in the garage. We plan in moving soon so decided to wait till we move to put both sets up.

Very Nice Kevin. What size are the runs??

I just bought an 8'X12' barn that is set up with 4 insulated fiberglass boxes on the inside.

Congrats on another win with Abbe.

They are 3 feet wide and 4 feet long.

Abbe isn't doing well. I thought she was a bit off Sunday but nothing noticable to cause any concern. She was limping after we got home Sunday and this morning she didn't want to get up, just layed there. So, started her on antibiotics for Lyme. This is the 3rd dog this year so far Becky, Cyrus, and Abbe.

turned out nice. I like the chew proofing. I did that to my kennels and it works out great.

what kind of roofing is that?

Very,Very Nice!
What are the measurements for the dog houses. I just build new kennels and put Seneca boxes in the runs but I like your setup better and may have to remodel some.
