Portable kennels come in a variety of shapes and sizes to accommodate practically any dog or area. Not to be confused with crates, a portable kennel is usually outdoor structures (although some people use them in garages or basements) ranging in size from about 4 feet wide by 6 feet long, to just about as big as you want to make them.

The actual portability of them depends on the finished size of course, but all portable kennels come apart and set up relatively easily if you want to change their location. Generally, they have the advantage of being large enough for a sleeping area (with a dog house, if you like) a play area, and a potty area.

A portable kennel can be used either as your dog’s main exercise and play area in the yard, to contain him if the rest of the yard is in use, or to visually and physically designate a potty area in your yard. They usually come with an attachable roof, so are generally a very secure option for containing your dog safely.
