For the past couple of days I wanted to put the tarp/cover back on my dog's kennel, especially since it's getting warmer. But the fence size is the average 4 feet height, and for the past 7 years I've had the tarp laying flat across. And it's very uncommfertable to stand hunched over for long periods of time under it.
So I had the idea to raise it, to a peak. I've seen kennels like that before, so I wanted to do that to mine. Well, the only thing I really had to use were poles used to hold up the net for the trampoline. We haven't had a net on the trampoline in a few years, and the poles didn't have any use, so I decide to use those.
So now my kennel has a nice peak in the middle. Standing tallest at 6 feet and slopes down to the back at the fence height of 4 feet. It covers half the size of the kennel (kennel size 10 x 20) and the tree in the back takes care of the rest for shade. It might not be the prettiest thing to some people, but hey, it does it's job: gives the dogs shade and allows me to stand up straight.
