Well a bit of snagging to do ( A drain gulley I f****d up !!!!) & after 8mnths in my new house the kennels are nearly as I want them..........Spent a few quid but Im sure the little feckers who live in them will pay me back x 10 !!!!!

They look handsome, mate. And I honestly hate to piss on ye parade, But; Let us know the moment ye have the Dogs in them and we can all watch the clock till ye on here screaming that some c***s ~ " Pikeys ", 'obviously' ~ have come over that fence, emptied those kennels and shot off down that road and gone.

Double padlocked with a sensorlight out of the pic to go up Ditch , The little road at the back is a rear acces for me & my neighbours .........Plus living in an area where the local scallys know better........

The terrier runs are 6ft x 4ft & the bigger run to the right is 6ft x 6ft............They go right around & include to half galv panels..........The lot cost £350 from a local fella & are just the job..........

Hows it going G....??....... Good to hear from you mate..........Good solid looking setup there , Just a question how do you get on with those wood shavings on the floor..........????.........Talking to a mate yesterday & he swears by them.........

Derbyshire, you going to the one just through buxton g-mac?

Nice Runs Elisderyn,hello G.mac as you can see i'm still hunting for tips on building my kennels/runs!

Elisderyn,i notice that you have small kennels inside the runs,i assume these are removable for cleaning/maintence etc;a sensible idea also the small kennel size for terriers just allows enough room

for terriers to sleep in and not foul them up,i discovered early on my terrier started using the back end of a kennel(too large) for shiting in and is a pain to keep clean,i will be incorporating that detail into my setup,thanks for the pics,have a good season everyone,

Higgins.

The kennel boxes are actually outside the galved run area & I have joined them by cutting through the mesh & then fixing them to the panel................I used to have big boxes before & as you said they would get shitted right up........This time I made smaller boxes & lined the inside with PVC sheeting & then siliconed it all , Really esy to clean out , I finished the actual boxes by cladding the ply with Galved treadplate , good protection & they look the part as well...........I did f**k up though by cutting the holes in the box flush to the base which allows them to drag bedding everywhere , oh well live & learn......

[higgins 75]

Elisderyn some good points mentioned there and duly noted,your set up looks excellent

only wish i could speed up and get to the end,still taking my time,going for some more cement tommorrow so i can get on with Phase Two,i will be putting pics of my progress on smoochers

for now as that is where i started the topic,all the best,

Higgins.
