Boys I've thought about this kennel for over 6 months I have absolutely mad my self sick thanking so much and finally the weather has broke and wormed up her in Kentucky I have spent most of the day building my new kennel I have used all treated wood it's costly but I hope to get at least 40 years out of the kennel . Her is the kennel I got started on . Tell me what you think .

Looks like a good start, I would have gone a little higher to make cleaning crap out from under easy.

I'm putting my kennel on 6 by 6 runners where I can pull it around it should work good. We have the same design for my home made hay rings and you can drag them any where .

I got to work on my kennel a little more
Every things going great

Thats going to be a real nice kennel. Where did you get the flooring and was it expensive ?

Thanks I bought my flooring from Gothic arch green house shipping and all was 187 dalliers for 9 piece of the flooring 2 foot by 4 foot . I hope it last me a life time I've spent a lot of money on this kennel
