joenovosel Webboard User Reg: 02-01-2006 Posts: 23 Loc: slc utah Offline	i am wondering if any one knows how to keep an outside kennell from smelling. i keep it cleaned out like every 2 days theres not a big mess in it. i have 2 dogs i looked i n here and i saw people using wood chips. does this help with the smell and how easy are they to clean the poop out of? i also have a 4 yr old lad shepherd mix she will not go to the bathroom in the kennell how do i get her to? shell hold it for a couple of days before shell go. if i leave her in the house alone then shell go every day in the house... no its not anything medically if shes out of the kennell and left outside shell go no problems. how do i correct this?

For cement, 1/2 cup bleach, 1/2 cup Pine-sol in 5 gallons of water, scrubbed and rinsed well works nicely. For rubber mulch, pea gravel (probably dirt too), use a garden sprayer (attaches to the hose) set to dispense 1 tsp of bleach per gallon of water. Rake through mulch or gravel to make sure it is thoroughly soaked and rinse well. I have not used this on dirt, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. If the smell is truly foul, consider improving their current diet.

You both are probably best off if you take her for a short walk two or three times a day where she is used to going. Just take along a baggie and pick it up to keep your yard clean for your kids.
