Show me your pics of dog kennel runs - and required wrapping

Dbounds.  Take a look at my setup.   More info on my BYC Page, but the top of my run is chainlink.   THe problem with this setup is the juncture of the pen to the door has all kinds of gaps.   

My cousin uses the welded wire like for enclosing gardens on top of her dog lot panels. Not as strong as some wire but light enough for the top.

I will try and get pics tomorrow sense we will be going to do some changes to mine.  But we are planning on putting a metal roof on the top of ours. right now it has chicken wire and its sagging.  I am using a chain link dog run and the only thing i do not like about it is the gaps from the poles and the door. So I just put a small board on the outside and wire it so it covers the gap. I only do this so my smaller chickens can not get out when they get big enough to where they do not squeeze themselves threw the gap I take it off.

If you check out my Coop Page you can see my 12 ft by 18 foot chain link chicken fun.

Below is a pic of ours:


We used PVC for the roof & zip tied some deer netting to the PVC. This pic was taken on the inside of the dog kennel:


Here's a pic of the PVC brackets that we used:

Okay...here's a pic of my setup. We used 2 (10x10x6) chain link dog kennel runs and attached them. I wanted separate runs so that I could put my (breeding pen) on one side and my friendly egg-layers only on the other! We used 2 (12x18) tarps over the top and fixed them tight w/ zip ties and a couple of bungie cords. We used 2 umbrella/tent spreaders in the middle of each run to tighten the tension of the tarp & to allow rain & snow to run off as to not accumulate on the tarp (not to mention to offer shade from the scorching sun during the summer months). Seems to be working well for my silkies and ameraucanas...good luck!

These are some great setups! 

I've been watching for some dog kennels and chain link fencing on craigslist, hoping we could use some for part of our run as well.

Yes, to purchase a new dog kennel run can be quite expensive! We were fortunate to acquire all of our panels used with the exception of one gated sides; however, when I went to purchase it was on sale, so that was a blessing!
