At this point you should probably know what exactly a dog kennel and run is. Well, it is one building separated in two halves. The one half is fully enclosed including a floor up off the ground. This protects your dog from the elements and provides it with extra warmth in the cold seasons. The other half of the dog kennel and run would be the run section. This part is open to the ground and the walls are composed of wire mesh so as to be see-through and breathable. Thus your dog can have the option of being out in the weather when it chooses.

Another nice thing about a dog kennel and run is that you can choose how durable it is! Most builders will offer two grades of constructions - standard and heavy-duty.
