KENNEL WORK UNDERWAY


Chris Gray is our kennel builder. He also owns www.SevenOaksKennel.com so he knows what he's doing with dogs! Our goal is to make a stream-lined, non-chewing, sanitary, bright & modern indoor environment for our 21 doggies, with whelping areas for the mommies and babies. Full A/C with heat in the winter; a grooming area; a customer restroom; and loft for storage are in the plans.






The kennel material is sage green metal with white trim. Six skylights have been custom-made as well. The insulation arrived (it's in huge rolls). Once the roof is on, the 14 runs will snap together real quick.
