I did the same as Patches.I used 2'' pipe welded on an old mobile home frame.I used 2x4 panels on the sides.5 1/4 deck boards spaced 1 1/ 4 for the floor and metal for the top.Also used the 2x4 panels as partetions mounted with hose clamps so I can move them to make an additional kennel......BEST DOG PEN I HAVE EVER USED......The only thing I would change if given the chance is I would possibly use hog panels for the floor instead of wood,but at the time I did not have access to hog panels...The deck boards work very well,I spray them out daily with the garden hose...

I bought the kennel panels from tractor supply comp some were branded akc others were from a different comp made for tsc. all rusted out on the bottom rails. 5x10s were around $300. After bitc&%# and complaining I got know where with them. Contact or look up danny glista on here he had a thread on this a few months ago and found a place in michigan that made panels that were coated to last forever. Priced at around $700

Use 4" blocks 3 block high ( 24" ) then horse panel on top. Or a 4" poured wall n panel on top. Seal the concrete or block good n keep it bleached n sealed frequently. Slope ur concrete at least a 1/2" per foot so waste will run rite off. If u can get ur hands on some corn cribs u can take them apart n use those panels they are even thicker than horse panels.

You can also take and old tire and wheel and put a 4 inch pressure treated post in the hub and make them a piss pole in the middle of there kennel or the blocks are have your panels powder coated and then you won't have to worry about it actually I have one male and this is the only kennel that bad like your talking and when he goes there won't be anymore
