Reply to comment by maciver6969 in How can I build an outdoor dog kennel using supplies from Walmart and Tractor supply by Oragami

If I want to go the buying used items route for some/all of what I'd need, it seems to me that living in an area where there's a fair number of people that raise cattle may have some older but still useable things I could buy from them

So central Texas style weather? So sun shade, wind shade, rain protection... Cold but not for long - you could do the diy route with cattle panels and then make a plywood and 2x4 box with a slight slope to the top to shed water. Solar screen material from home depot/lowes can shade it really easy and is cheap, They also have a waxed canvas tarp that is water proof and ready to hang on the kennel.

How would I go about making a gate so I can go in/come out?
