Product Features

Raised Wooden Base

The integrated raised base helps lift the kennel off the ground, improving stability while reducing moisture from damp surfaces.

Apex Roof

The sloping apex roof allows rainwater to run away naturally, helping keep the kennel drier in wet weather.

Felt Roof Covering

The roof is covered with durable roofing felt, providing an additional layer of protection against rain and helping to prolong the life of the kennel.

Easy Access Roof

The hinged front roof section allows quick access to the inside of the kennel, making cleaning and changing bedding much easier.

Treated Timber

Constructed from treated wood to help improve resistance to outdoor weather conditions.

Choosing the Right Size

Your dog should be able to:

• Stand comfortably without crouching.
• Turn around with ease.
• Lie down in a natural sleeping position.
• Enter and leave the kennel comfortably.

If your dog is between sizes, choosing the larger kennel will usually provide a more comfortable resting space.

Care Instructions

To maximise the life of your kennel:

• Position on a firm, level surface.
• Ideally place on paving slabs, concrete or kennel feet to reduce contact with standing water.
• Inspect the felt roof periodically for signs of wear.
• Re-treat the timber as recommended to maintain weather protection.
• Clean regularly and replace bedding when required.
