Article Title: An Introduction To Dog Kennels
Author: Samantha Clark

Dog kennels and dog kennel fence are meant to keep your dogs
cozy and comfortable, protect them from climatic conditions and
provide them a personal space. High quality dog kennels are not
connected by chain for your dog's fur may get caught in them
causing him injury. Versatile kennel structures that can keep
your dogs safe and secure are the best options. There should be
no exposed wires and kennels should be properly ventilated.
Portable dog houses and good for traveling with dogs and make
your dog more comfortable outdoors.

Dog kennel flooring

Wood is good option for dog kennel flooring provided that it is
treated so that it is waterproof as well as stain and odor
resistant. If your dog kennel flooring is made of wood that
hasn't been adequately treated then you will encounter many
problems. Should your dog accidentally soil the wood floor of
its kennel and it isn't stain and odor resistant then you will
not only end up with a nasty looking stain on the floor but
every time your dog needs to use the bathroom it will smell
that spot and be automatically triggered to use the same place
over. There are some different ways to remove the odors left by
dog urine or excrement but the easiest by far is to do your best
to avoid any accidents from happening in the first place and
make sure that the dog kennel flooring is properly protected
against any such accidents.

Using the solution, clean the area thoroughly with a mop. Mop
the area thoroughly with clean water to remove any traces of
soap. Dry with an old cloth thoroughly.
Spray an enzyme inhibitor (use one designed especially to be
used on wood surfaces) onto a dry rag and wipe the area.

Portable dog kennels

at home for dog run and exercise yard. Use at dog shows and
sporting events for temporary confinement. Easy to set up at
the site; Covered for shelter from the sun; Fits into a pick-up
bed for safe travel to and from your show or event.

How to build a dog kennel

A company that sells dog kennels was offering a free course to
anyone that bought their kennels on how to build a dog kennel.

The kennel is constructed out of 150x19 rough-sawn treated pine
for the floor and roof (this timber is commonly used for fence
palings), 50x50 gauged or dressed untreated pine for the
framing, 50x50 gauged or dressed PT (pressure treated) pine for
the under floor skids (dressed or finished size is usually
46x46) and one sheet of 9mm exterior plywood from which the
walls are cut

Dog kennel fence

The best kinds of dog kennel fences are made out of heavy-duty
wire mesh and are rust proof so that they are both durable and
easy to clean. Keeping your dog kennel clean means not only
frequently washing the inside of your dog's living area/house
but also cleaning the surface of the floor the roof cover and
the dog kennel fences.

Any surface that is not kept clean can be a potential breeding
ground or refuge for bacteria and parasites. Some of the best
dog kennels fences are made of 100% commercial grade steel and
have good solid frames, with quick connect frame components,
and then have heavy duty uni-body chain link wire mesh or 8
gauge heavy-duty 2x4 welded wire perimeters that are attached
to the frames with the direct drill and weld method.

Steps how to kennel train a dog

There are three main segments of training to teach a dog any
exercise. This applies to obedience and all other areas of
training as well i.e. protection work, agility, etc.

With the help of the above three steps its helps a dog goes
through the process properly, it will actually go up in drive
after it gets corrected because it has learned that it is now
going to be put in a situation where it gets it's drive goal.
