Aviaries - would these be suitable

I'm looking into getting 2 aviaries for the bunnies.

Just wondering what panels people suggest?, obviously we want very secure ones as we have 4 large dogs.

Also any tips on making it secure/safe before we start building it?

I was thinking of using these sort of panels, only I have never seen anyone on here use them so I was just wondering if there was a reason why?

As long as the gaps in the wire arnt to big I cant see why you couldn't use this style enclosure. The reason people dont use this set up will be the cost I imagine. :)
 
Just noticed this
not suitable for very aggressive dogs ( chose our ex strong mesh panels)
so not sure how strong the one you linked is. Not saying your dogs are aggressive btw but it would seem a willing dog can get through this style? :?
 
Have you seen the pre-made aviary panels like these ones: http://www.chirpycoops.co.uk/index.php?pid=161&sid=70

I have these, Chirpy Coops built my 6x6x3 grass run for me, they built a gate on one side for me, it's very heavy solid wood too, not sure how it would cope with curious dogs, but it takes 2 people to lift the thing, awkwardly! (And Chirpy Coops is a little family run place, the guy who made it, delivered it AND built it for me! Lovely company! Supplied most of Rabbit Residence's runs too.)

Think it was about £120ish for it?

I'm sure if you said what you wanted, they could build you it more secure with more braces to make it stronger.
