Need a plan for strong steel outdoor run for Amstaff
Josephine1831 replied to Josephine1831's topic in General Dog Discussion
Hi Everyone. Just wanted to show you the dog pen I eventually made. He will never escape. This image is before I put the door on and the mesh roof. Just got to cover the mesh floor now for comfort. Dirt? Thanks for all your ideas!!!! Really a huge help with ideas Jo -

Cheers Persephone I priced some 5 mm mesh today. 3000 mm x 2400 mm. 50 x 75 mm. Can't get 50 x 100 mm in Australia so it seems. I don't want him to get his jaw stuck if he does have a good go at it. tdierikx, thanks, That sounds good. I am an old woman too!! haha. I do my own welding but not keen to weld galvanised, so I'll think about your wood! I have an Amstaff breeder phoning me tomorrow with advice too. Feeling more confident to make something solid, thanks everyone!!!! -

Thanks animallover99. I have emailed them for some info. Be great if the 3mm is strong enough. -

Thanks Persephone How do you join the sheets please? Do you weld or wire onto steel tubing? I guess it is galvanised. I can find a pen and copy that, but just wondering how you do it. -
Hello - I am a new member. I have an adorable 2.5 year old Amstaff and I need to build him a strong, safe and escape-proof outdoor run, for times when I am away from home. I'm in a rural area so I have to be absolutely sure he can't escape. Currently, I put him in boarding or take him to my mother's house when I go out, but it's not a great long term solution. Would anyone have any ideas, plans or images of dog runs that are suitable that they are willing to share? Thinking dimensions of about 4 m x 4 m, or thereabouts, possibly bigger? He'll be right beside my other dogs so won't get lonely. The others are in wooden/wire runs but Kotz would escape those very quickly. I've uploaded an image of him Love him to bits!!
