daegy76,
How big is the box? How many young dogs do you have in this Kennel box?
If you have 1 or 2 young dogs (3 to 6 months old) in this box and the box is full width on above ground kennel. Try putting a divider in the box to make sleeping the chamber no more than 24 inches wide.
Hope this helps.
Don

I haven’t needed to try this…but I’m told that it will work (I think it was Bob Huffman who suggested this). First off clean their box out good…then pour their feed in the floor of their box…the idea is that the pups will not “mess” where they eat. Then once they get in the habit of “messing” outside…I’m sure one could put their food back in bowls.
Good luck…
