Our Kennel Set - Up
From Dec. '04 - May '06, we did a complete change in our kennels. We had a few with genetic problems & a few that simply would not care for there wee ones from the time they began to whelp. This also gave us a chance to redo our kennels. All of our kennels are about 1 ft off the ground,we do have a bigger pen,that's on the ground like an exercise pen .
Since we lost our vehicles & our home we had to move,to our current location on Jun 30,08.
I have placed pictures,for you to see our set-up. Every summer it seems that we remodeling our kenneling system. Hopefully summer 2010, we will be adding more kenneling and pens in our shed. I only hope that some day we can afford to give them extra heat during the winter and A/C during the summer. All the kenneling are surrounded with sheds & plenty of trees this helps for wind breakage during the winter. I have found it easier on everyone this past winter'08/'09, then in the previous years.
Every morning, I'm outside hosing down kennels & feeding everyone, water buckets are scrubbed as needed, do to algie/lime coming from the water. The pens are scrubbed down as needed as well..
I would love to have a better set-up then we have,but this will have to do for now.
All the puppies are fed Purina & the adults Retriever...
NOTE: Summer of 2010 we sold out our shetland sheepdogs & as well as found homes for some of our adults labs, that were unable to pass hip/OFA & CERF/eye exams... The kennels you see are in the same position,but not the same & also we have fewer dogs as well.. Once we start our new set-up,we will be taking new pics along the way. This is a goal we have set to be started for spring/summer 2011... It will look awesome after it's completed.. We have plans on creating a nice size run for our labs and ratties, throughout, the summer 2010 we have been purchasing fencing as well as kenneling for this project & yes, this was a goal we have been planning since spring 2010.. |
