    I'd be worried about flooding and snow + trying to clean them out. Great way to hide a yard of dogs, though.

    Same thoughts I had Ides along with it being easier for pests to get in.Good point about hiding yard lol.

    us northern folks dont have the snake worries yall have. Have not tried one, but they would be hard to clean out..just curipus if anyone else seen them or used them.

    One I made recently. 4x4s were reclaimed from a fence contractor I know and most of the 2x4s were reclaimed from my older above ground pen.

    This one is 4x8 feet, you can make it 8x8 feet if you want. Regular ground kennel run would be cheaper I think?

    Tenderfoot from old farrowing crates works great for flooring. If you live in the deep south it works great for the sides as well. It's basically allot like expanded metal but much thicker and it's coated and often self supporting. It is usually sold in 4x8 or 5x10 sheets and can be bought new or used.
