[QUOTE="Shari, post: 157457, member: 1848"] Hey, Lisa. I can't look at the picture (blocked at work) but here's what we did... If you can get some rebar or other metal rod that's long enough, bend it in a small arc and put it over the kennel every couple of feet for the length of it with a "backbone" down the middle to hold them in place (weld or wire it), then put the tarp over that. Will keep the rain from destroying the tarp. I've done this before with a cattle panel, which would be easier unless you have a handy welder around (which we do). Cattle panels are about $25 at a farm store. Can help you find one if you need. Then when Rowdy gets out of the habit of jumping and the tarp wears out (eventually, it will anyway, but it should last several months or longer with the supports under it), if you think you still need something, you can put a length of woven wire over the kennel. I have a ton lying around, wish you were close, I could give you some. [/QUOTE]
