What size kennel should I choose?Choosing the right size kennel is dependent on many things. Size of your dog, breed of dog, how active your dog is and how long the dog will stay in the kennel for, i.e. few hours or all day? For example, if you have a medium sized dog who stays in the kennel most of the day, then a large sized kennel is best.
-
What shape do I choose?The shape of the kennel may be a personal choice. You may want to choose the roof shape that best suits your property or your style. Cougar Kennels range includes curved roof, gable roof or sloping roof designs.
-
Can I change the layout of the standard design kennels?We are happy to discuss your preferences, as you may decide the sleeping area would work best on the opposite end, or the door on the opposite side.
-
Can I change the way the door opens?Yes, we are happy to make minor amendments to the standard design kennels. Have a chat with us.

Does the tin get hot?Yes, the tin will get hot in the sun, so we have built the enclosed kennel area with insulation between the exterior panel and the treated plywood lining to help keep your pet cooler in summer & warmer in winter.
