The extension process is simple, involving only two additional supplied parts. It can be useful to have a variable size kennel in circumstances like when the puppy grows, getting a second dog so both can be accommodated in a single kennel or providing comfort during different seasons. The kennel can be "closed", warm and waterproof in cooler weather, or "open" to allow a through flow of air for cooling during hot weather. It is constructed of durable timber and in flat pack form.SEVEN.
