A dog kennel on castors made using recycled pallet timber.
The project
I'm a novice woodworker, but have found all the posts on Workshop to be educational and inspirational. I have a passion for recycled timber and pallet projects – it’s cheap and environmentally friendly.
I built this dog kennel using recycled pallet timber. It has a small gap at the rear for water drainage and her bed just folds in two so you can pull it through the front of the kennel.
How to build a dog kennel
This stylish dog kennel is a great project to take on as a family and will look great in your backyard. Check out this step-by-step guide: D.I.Y. dog kennel.

Hi @frazer
Unfortunately I don’t have the kennel in my possession anymore. A friends dog needed it more.
My kennel was made for the beautiful Zola, my Border collie, she’s a medium to large breed so the kennel size could be different depending on the dog.
I’ll try to get some measurements over the coming days.
Kind Regards
Spencer
