    Nice setup.

    Those are some big kennels -- I would split them in half so you could leave blank spaces in between the dogs.

    Dogs in heat need to be further away than a peter will reach.....dogs that don't like each other can be separated as well.

    With a pack of lacy dogs, it's a constant shuffle at our place.....(this dog can't be next to this dog, this dog likes to be close to this dog, etc. )

    The hallway area may also create a "conflict area" if you let two out at the same time. A crowded dog is an unhappy dog.

    looking forward to seeing the final product

      Looks nicer than anything I would build for a family pet outside. But thats just me.

        I built mine three kennels on a 30" wide slab, 15 foot deep, 10 of that kennel. back of kennels open to individual 65" runs. Metal top over the entire slab.

        use old style 6gauge chain link if at all possible. A lot of dogs can chew/rip a hole in 11 gauge chain link. Won't happen on 6 gauge.

        If you do a run put predator wire along to bottom to deter digging.

At first I used the method you mentioned above by washing down then scooping and it got old real quick with 3 dogs. My new system is a breeze and nothing to pick up after washdown.

            Alright looks like I’m goin with the 3 dog setup. Changed locations on my property so I will slope from back to front with a built in sloped from right to left concrete trench on the front. Now gotta get roof, enclosure, and fencing lined out
