does anyone no how big of a dog box i need and how big the runs should be im wanting to hold 8 dogs and would like it to be one single unit with dividers

[S.R.Patch]

3' X 8' w/ a 2'X 3' dogbox on the back is as small as I've seen.
If you build a platform 10' X 12' , and divide it into 4, 3' X 8' pens, you'll have 2' left on the back to sit you doghouse.
