sascha 7 Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 hi all just started to build new double dog run for my whippets, ive built a ship lap shed 6 x 5 ft which has 2 dog boxes 1 metre squared each with heat mats, just wondered what is the minimum size run i would need for each, at the moment the run is a single and measures 1.9m wide x 2.4m long, putting a partition in will make it 2 runs just shy of a metre wide. Is this enough?? my whippets are both under 20 inchs tts, pup may be smaller at the mo its 16 tts at 22 weeks, im also looking for some dog mesh to remesh full run and partition, dog bars or the security fence panel type, if any body has any laying around pm me any advice or opinions would be appreciated on my dilema Quote Link to post
