It looks like rigid pipe painted white to me. Wouldn't make sense to use PCv. It gets brittle in the sunlight. Then again, maybe they did use PVC :shock:

Looks as though there is a metal flashing roof over the lower pen that may catch any fall through from above, then, the hose pipe is there handy to wash it all off, and if planned well, it would have a slight slope to one far lower corner, where a funnel or down spout would direct the wash water a waste away...Patch

Well I think it's plastic all right but I'd say it's CPVC schl#80 with heavy
grey CPVC glue !! I hope the hounds in these kennels get out a lot
they look kinda cramped.

I have a buddy that sells and builds PVC kennels. They look alot like the ones above, just 1 story though. It's cheap, very sturdy, easy to clean, and no maintenance. He also builds the boxes out of the the plastic decking and vinyl. The boxes and kennels will last forever.
