How do you build a brick shed/kennel for my 2 dogs?

Question

I wish to build a kennel for my 2 Beagles. I already have a wooden shed with electricity, dog flap, insulated kennel inside etc.

Answer 1

Are you wanting to brick up the existing structure?  Either way, it's not that difficult.  You'll have to dig around the base of the building and pour a level footer for the brick.  Once that is set up, you'll start by laying a bed of mortar, setting your first row of brick, making sure the row is level.   Continue up the wall, and add metal brick ties that are attached to the wall and bent out at a 90 degree angle so they can be set between rows.  They help hold the brick up so it won't fall away from the wall.  It's not all that hard, but it takes quite a bit of work and skill to make it look right.  

You could just opt for some of the cement based plank siding over the wood.
