Has anyone ever used this on a ground kennel before and if so how did it work out ?

My mistake, it isn't crusher run as I was told but it is called 1/4" midas (sp) or block material , same stuff used in making concrete blocks. Has anyone used this for flooring before in a kennel ? I had a guy say it sets up hard after it gets wet and is similar to concrete.

I've not use it in a dog kennel but have put some on a gravel road and it did pack like concrete but in winter it turns mushy. it be alright thou under a kennel with a roof.

Thanks JC, it will have a roof over it. I seen a kennel with it today and it looked good, the guy used a garden rake to clean up the waste and pours bleach over it about once a month. He said it was easy to keep clean too.

I used 2" of crusher run as my 1st layer in my kennels. On top of that went 2"-4" of rock dust. The crusher run keeps the rock dust from sinking into the dirt/mud at least that's what a buddy told me. My kennels are in a pretty dry area, but I did it anyway.
