Thanks, Kevin.

Both of my neighbors are county sheriffs so I'm not going to risk it. The measurements I gave are for each panel. The total size of the kennel is 8'x16' so that is more then enough space for a dog. Finally I made this post on here because unlike some people I dont have time to sit on the computer ...

I just got my first hound and need to get a kennel built for him. Before I get started I have a few questions.

1) What age do you put your dog out in the kennel? He is just over 4 months old and the temp ranges from 0 to 30 degrees this time of year. He will have an insulated house to get shelter ...
