Is this pen good for a pit bull - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

10 by 10 wire roof reinforced fencing cement under the dirt and gate locked closed when she is in it.
A tarp will be placed once it gets real HOT

The pipes are to hold the tarp

She is in the dog house in the top 2 pictures

Looks better then Snows Pen.

**Desflahd** · 03-31-2012, 01:39 AM

As long as the chain link is in good shape that should be fine.

**Fainnamoony** · 03-31-2012, 01:41 AM

looks fine as long as she isn't a digger. that would be my only concern

**BrainTop** · 03-31-2012, 01:49 AM

Is she spayed? If not, I would not keep her in there when she is in heat unless you have a fenced in yard that no intact males could get into....

**bestbyV** · 03-31-2012, 02:06 AM

theres cement under the dirt sidekick

lailabug yes she is spayed

**fkjghfg** · 03-31-2012, 02:12 AM

doesn't look bad. how thick is the chain link? I had bought an outdoor kennel and thought it would hold my APBT but she was out of it in like 1/2 hr. the chain link was think and she destroyed it. LOL.

**bestbyV** · 03-31-2012, 02:16 AM

yea i had a smaller pen like that and she chewed thru it
This new one she chewed thru so i added more fencing around the perimeter of it the same stuff i put on top

**Thifiadardivy** · 03-31-2012, 03:28 AM

Tarp will make it hotter. I think

**bestbyV** · 03-31-2012, 03:51 AM

no it will provide shade. i did it last summer

**Peter Hill** · 03-31-2012, 03:57 AM

You've posted in the past that she's already escaped the chain link kennel. So then you reinforced it with chicken wire. Get a proper chain spot and be done with it.

I didnt block you for that i didnt block you at all

she hasnt escaped it i put chicken wire for a roof which i removed and replaced with welded wire fenceing

**Ilaubuas** · 03-31-2012, 07:03 AM

If she is in the pen a lot through the day, I'd put the tarp on now. It still must get off if she doesn't have much shade.

**bestbyV** · 03-31-2012, 07:09 AM

shes got the shade of the house right now on one side she lays in her house most the time anyway

**huylibizonoff** · 03-31-2012, 01:05 PM

Looks on the flimsy side to me, but I'm not terribly savvy. Is the chain link itself in the ground? If not it could easily be pushed under. I don't like how the gap between the door and fence widen towards the bottom.

**OvDojQXN** · 03-31-2012, 01:14 PM

as I always say a fence is to keep things OUT...a chain is to keep things IN, I would put a chain spot inside for peace of mind

**FYIbiatches** · 03-31-2012, 04:51 PM
