Should your dog accidentally soil the wood floor of its kennel and it isn't stain and odor resistant then you will not only end up with a nasty looking stain on the floor but every time your dog needs to use the bathroom it will smell that spot and be automatically triggered to use the same place over. There are some different ways to remove the odors left by dog urine or excrement but the easiest by far is to do your best to avoid any accidents from happening in the first place and make sure that the dog kennel flooring is properly protected against any such accidents.

Using the solution, clean the area thoroughly with a mop. Mop the area thoroughly with clean water to remove any traces of soap. Dry with an old cloth thoroughly.

The kennel is constructed out of 150x19 rough-sawn treated pine for the floor and roof (this timber is commonly used for fence palings), 50x50 gauged or dressed untreated pine for the framing, 50x50 gauged or dressed PT (pressure treated) pine for the under floor skids (dressed or finished size is usually 46x46) and one sheet of 9mm exterior plywood from which the walls are cut

Dog kennel fence

Keeping your dog kennel clean means not only frequently washing the inside of your dog's living area/house but also cleaning the surface of the floor the roof cover and the dog kennel fences.

Any surface that is not kept clean can be a potential breeding ground or refuge for bacteria and parasites. Some of the best dog kennels fences are made of 100% commercial grade steel and have good solid frames, with quick connect frame components, and then have heavy duty uni-body chain link wire mesh or 8 gauge heavy-duty 2x4 welded wire perimeters that are attached to the frames with the direct drill and weld method.
