anti dig bars don't work wither. nothing on this kennel is what it is supposed to be! it stinks! My husband had to practically rebuild. There is nothing to mount the feeder with. this is completly false advertising. Please don't spend your hard earned money on this product
need to add, when I called the owner to complain about rusted parts & parts not fitting into each other & that there were no directions, he said all the dammage was done during a move I made. While meanwhile, the kennel was NEVER set up proior to the move. It was dropped of at my home and moved in the original package. One of the bowls snapped off and now has to sit on the ground until my husband can find time to weld it back on. Mark Kitchen also stated that if I rhad to pay 15% and shipping!
This kennel is a huge waste of money. The inbred retraded owner has no clue regrding the inferior powder coating. The build process resulted in many of the connection point to be mislocated. It's a rusted piece of crap. DO NOT WASTE your hard earned monet. You can buy a much better design at Lowes for half the money.
I built my own solid metal roof that protects it from rain and snow and escapes. You can see the kennel on my YouTube channel near the end of the video titled, "Zeus & Phoebe enjoying a Sunday afternoon." YouTube does not allow me to place the link to it in this comment box.
I did not purchase a floor nor a roof from this company. The kennel sits on dirt so I put down 1/2" hardware cloth to completely cover the floor of the kennel with at least six inches of hardware cloth outside of the kennel. One end of the kennel has a raised enclosed two story "bedroom" which houses a heater for winter along with food and water dishes and an inside carpeted ramp to the upper bedroom. I put down green astro turf outdoor carpeting to cover the exposed hardware cloth.
To be fair AND honest, this product works as stated. I was able to assemble this, seen in the video, by myself almost as quickly as the four people in the video.
Yes, it did have some chipping when I purchased it. Yes, some chipping has occurred since, especially where a heavy chain wraps through and around the wire and door.
This is a terrible product. It takes way longer than Mark Kitchen says. It's the worst purchase I have ever made. You HAVE to add the side covers otherwise the dogs food gets wet if it rains.
It was rusted when we got it, and the pannels don't line up.
also you NEED to put it on a concrete slab. The floor is terrible. Poorly made.
It's like a prison!! And who would leave their dog out in the snow, in a space not big enough for them to generate heat!! I think it is cruel to keep your dog locked away like this!!!

So, it takes four adults to install this kennel? Kidding.

I just bought one and the paint has chipped in a couple spots. It came that way, pre-chipped with rust.

Is there nothing to stop it from falling over if you had for example an excited dog jumping against the sides?
