I got some cut-to-fit plastic raised floor panels for SWMBO's fancy new furniture grade dog crates. If the ground is level, they would work well. If not those rubber floor mats you see in food prep areas would do it.

I used 12" x 12" flag stones, be sure and put a good layer of sand under them, unlike some people I know blush


There is time, and you must take it, to lay your hand on your dog's head as you walk past him lying on the floor or on his settle, time to talk with him, to remember with him, time to please him, time you can't buy back once he's gone" GBE

Why put the sand?

So you can pack it down and have a firm base and yes for good drainage.

The best flooring you can get for a kennel would be PolyMax Non-Overlapping Poultry/Kennel Flooring
