52
Q

Dog minimum floor space

A

To Calculate the minimum amount of floor space:

Measure the length of the dog in inches (from the tip of its nose to the base of its tail).

Add 6 inches to this length.

Square this sum (that is, multiply the above result by the same number).

Then divide the squared result by 144 to obtain the minimum amount of floor space in square feet.

The minimum interior height must be at least 6 inches higher than the head of the tallest dog in the enclosure when it is in a normal standing position.
