We build chain link kennels and dog runs for Clarksville yards, sized to the dog. A kennel is often the quickest way to get a safe space while a full fence waits on HOA approval.
Dogs are behind a large share of the fence calls we get in Clarksville. A lot of households here are military families who arrive with one or two big dogs and a yard that has no fence at all. A chain link kennel or dog run is the fastest and least expensive way to give a dog safe outdoor space, and it can go up in a corner of the yard even when a full perimeter fence has to wait for HOA approval.
We size the kennel to the dog. Height comes first, because a dog that jumps or climbs needs taller panels or a top. The bottom comes next. Clay is easy for a determined digger after rain, so we close the base with a bottom rail, buried mesh or a concrete or paver edge. In a Tennessee summer the kennel also needs shade and air, so we talk about where the sun falls in the afternoon and whether part of the run should be covered.
If you rent, or live on post, get permission before building. On Fort Campbell, the housing community's rules require approval before any fence goes up, and the same rules say play equipment has to sit inside an approved fence. Off post, a kennel that is not attached to the ground like a fence may be treated differently by a landlord or an association, and that can make it the easier route.
Dog kennels in Clarksville: common questions
Can a kennel be taken with us when we move?
A panel kennel that is bolted together can be taken apart and moved. One with posts set in concrete cannot. Tell us you expect to move and we plan it that way.
How tall should a dog run be for a large dog?
Six feet suits most large dogs. A known climber or jumper may need a top panel. Tell us the breed and what the dog has got over before.
Will my HOA allow chain link?
Many associations around Clarksville limit or ban chain link where it can be seen from the street. Check your covenants. Black coated chain link placed behind the house is sometimes accepted where bare galvanized is not.
