As has been said the shredded wax paper is good stuff, will last we'll is hygienic and cheap enough. Haven't got kennels myself but all out dogs in the past were kennelled with this stuff and did well

Bed down excel horse shavings, scented so if dog pees on it it soaks up and don't notice.the smell, it also stays dry on top. Only problem is it does make a bit of a mess but if you can sweep up regularly it ain't too bad.

Aubiose is excellent. Its a technical horse bedding, wicks the wet away from the surface to maintain a dry layer nearest the animal. £10 a bale. I get through a bale a month for a large lurcher and a Labrador.

was thinking about giving this a try the other day,do you use it like they recommend you do for horses?

 

getting it wet before putting it in their kennel just doesnt sit right with me.

I use plastic barrels for kennels. Just put the bedding in dry. The top two or three inches is always dry and have no problem with condensation.

 

The lid on the end of the barrel is only half removed. The half remaining keeps the bed in. A little will be walked out when the bed is fresh, but the dogs track in moisture after walks and through respiration, so it settles quickly.

 

And it really does compost well. Excellent stuff in my opinion. It shall remain my beddi g of choice for a long time.
