Rank #8 in Best Dog Kennels 2026: 10 Ranked, Wood, Plastic and Metal
Garden Store Direct Dog Kennel, Green Roof, Large
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Garden Store Direct Dog Kennel House Shelter sits at number eight in this guide. It is a polypropylene outdoor shelter in a Green Roof finish, priced at £74.99, rated 4.5 out of 5 from 33 ratings, and ranked third in Amazon's Dog Houses best sellers list. Assembly is required, and the listing describes it as simple to assemble, easy to clean and easy to move.
The count in this ficha does not settle. The product name sells the kennel "with Two Sizes" and the bullets repeat "Two Colours/SIzes", but the specification table lists the Dog Breed Size as "Large, Medium, Small" — three. Only one colour, Green Roof, appears anywhere in the data. The bullets also credit "RImax Durable Dog Kennels" while the brand and manufacturer fields both say Garden Store Direct. And for a kennel, the one number a buyer would want — the dimensions — is not in the listing at all. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing; nothing here is from our own testing or measurement.
