Don't no how to post pics, but built a 60 ft long 12 foot wide deck. Made kennels out of 4x4 and chain link with a tin top.

I built mine with the floor 2 ft off the ground the whole thing is 16 ft long I used 4x4 wood post 8ft long for legs used 2x4 for frame work made 4 pens they are 4 ft wide 8 ft long I put tin on the roof and the back side I put 2x4 horse wire for deviders and for the front I used 2x10 for the floor with bout 1 1/2 inch space between them  then took rubber mats and skewed it to the floor I left bout a foot at back of the pen with out the mat so it is easy to wash out works great but when it rains the doors swell and makes it a little hard to open and close them
