Kennels

 

 

Even with these facilities, BMK dogs spend more time out of their kennels than in them and they spend most of their time socialising together and with the family.
Construction

Our Kennels have been planned carefully to blend in with our environment, providing spacious, secure accomodation which is naturally sheltered.

The kennel buildings, set back in a rocky bank, stand on a concrete base and damp-proof membrane. They are purposefully built low in order to preserve the body heat of the dogs and also encorporate a wind break entrance. Thick glass blocks allow daylight to filter through, although the position of the kennels means that there is always shade and they are cool in Summer. On the doorsteps are "patios".

Inside, the dogs sleep on a raised wooden platform which can be easily removed for cleaning. The sloping roofs can be lifted to further assist in cleaning. In Winter we fill the kennels with an abundance of fresh straw. There is plenty of room for two dogs to share each kennel although we also have facilities for complete isolation.
