these are a few pics of a kennel my granpa just built me . i was very happy on the way it turned out. just postin to give you guys a few ideas. thank you for the comments.

If you don't mind me asking, how much do you have in it? That is nice, I really like it. That is exactly what I am wanting to build, but a double. Thanks for the pics..

no prob i got the house built for free from a feller that does heatin and air but the rest i got right at $140.00... thanks for the comment as well.... i think it turned out very well

her are a couple pics of my kennels have around 80.00 each in them

modock and mafia,

I am planning on building my 5 beagles above kennels. I was wanting to know what size are your kennels and how many dogs do you have in each kennel? Thanks for any help.

Here are a few pics of my kennel 450.00 invested 3 runs 4x8

A couple of suggestions. I just built a kennel today and used chicken slats as the flooring. Very easy on dogs feet and easy to clean and will never rot, rust or go bad. Weather does not effect it. Also I leave about 3" of space between sides and floor. When you spray them out everything goes right out under the sides and nothing is left. I will post some pictures of my new kennel in a day or two and hopes it gives others idea's. I know I have taken quite a few idea's from this board and used them.

My dogs will escape through 3"!!! I have some serouis escape artist, and they are like cons who have 24 hours a day to figure out to break out. I went back to ground kennels with pea gravel. My dogs just didn't move around on wire enough, so i really do like the slats better.
