Why Build a Large Kennel?
There is a lot to gain through the addition of a play space tailored to your dog on your property, and as you learn more about this feature, you might start to think of it more as a necessity rather than a luxury. You’ll be doing a lot of good for your dogs by providing them with a kennel, including the following points –
- Weather protection. When you create a kennel with a roof, a big part of what you gain is protection from the weather conditions outside. Not only will your dogs be able to get outside without being in the rain, but they can also seek some shade on hot summer days when the sun is beating down.
- A safety upgrade. You always want to make sure your dogs are safe. With a kennel, you can place them in a space made just for them whilst at work or out of the home.
- Protect your landscaping. Putting your dogs in a spacious kennel will also ensure that they aren’t getting into your landscaping to do damage to flower beds or any other features.
- A place to play. If you have breeds that need constant stimulation and play, having a dedicated space (where they can’t escape) is imperative. You can fill this space with toys, food, and other luxuries just for them. This keeps your pooches away from furniture, the ability to dig under your fences, and keeps them from eating things they shouldn’t.
Kennel Features to Consider
- Add suitable flooring for your pets’ paws. Concrete is a good choice because of its simplicity and durability, but rubber mats or gravel are also options.
- You will also want to ensure proper ventilation or air conditioning in the kennel so your dogs can breathe fresh air as they play. Insulate the walls to trap cool air inside, and you will know your pet is safe while you’re at work or away.
- You could even add separate rooms for zones which is especialy important when running a kennel. But this is useful if your own family pet needs a place to eat and sleep or if you have multiple pups who are learning how to get along. One of these rooms could be a bathing area, especially if your dog is a large breed like a husky or mountain dog, and you go on hikes and other adventures that would otherwise cover your bathroom in mud and grime.
- Attach a secure run to the side of the metal building with a door leading out. This way, your dogs will have the luxury of moving inside where it’s cool and there are plenty of toys and food or outside to use the bathroom.
- Integrate a camera system to monitor your pets all day. Some dogs with anxiety may even appreciate a sound system that plays calming music or audiobooks.
- And of course, lots of toys and storage for them.
