If anyone’s in any doubt about
the need for good kennels, they needn’t be!

it’s been unbelievable as I’m snowed under with bookings

Maddie's Adoption Center has exceeded the Society’s most
hopeful expectations. From increased adoptions, including

and look at the

We love the fact that
we are appealing to people just like us who have never left
their dogs before. It is a lovely feeling to know that all of these
people are happy to leave their precious dogs with us – does it get
any better than this? We don’t think so!

Are you considering a career as a caring and professional rescue centre, boarding kennels
or dog hotel owner?
Are you having problems finding where to get
straight, unbiased answers to your questions about where to start,
or what are the best kennel designs?
Have you been to your local kennels and come out thinking "I can
do MUCH better than that"?!
Do you want to find out what it's like to completely change your
lifestyle and income doing something you LOVE - spending your
day working with dogs? Then you've come to the right place!
Over the last 20 years I've been designing animal facilities professionally,
working for one of the most well known UK animal rescues, The Blue Cross (as
well as helping many others). I've also had the privilege of assisting thousands of
animal lovers worldwide to become facility owners themselves.
My latest book, Kennel Design: The Essential Guide to Creating
Your Perfect Kennels is a BIG BOOK (over 10" square and 1.25" deep) and totally unique - described
as:
Whatever type of dog facility you’re looking to build, I am certain this book will help you create a first class
kennels facility for your customers, both two and four legged.
At Dogs Trust we are changing the
way kennels look and feel forever.

Kennel Design book! We also included the world-renowned Dogs Trust, San Francisco
SPCA, Dublin SPCA, The Blue Cross and Battersea Dogs and Cats Home as well as top boarding kennels and dog

boarding and rescue kennels to include as case studies, with BIG colour
photos, descriptions and insider information on what makes their kennels
