Re: Need to buid a new kennel!
I build a dog box for two dogs on the outside of the dog run. I cut an opening through the end kennel panel to fit a K-9 Kondo steel door. The door is off to one side to keep wind out. I insulated it with 3.5" insulation and extruded foam in the floor. I also wired it for a Hound Heater.
This way they get the full run of the kennel and there's no worry about them chewing on the outside of the house.
I put vapor barrier on the inside underneath 1/2" plywood walls, floor and ceiling. For the floor, I put down 1/4" rubber horse stall mat covered with a carpet scrap.
