£250,000 Dog Kennel

By Miss Cellania in Animals & Pets, Architecture on Nov 27, 2008 at 12:52 pm

The most luxurious dog kennel ever is in the planning stages.

A dog lover has turned half of her £1.4 million home into a luxury “kennel” for her Great Danes – complete with their own plasma screen TV, lounge and spa, it was revealed today.

The surgeon, who wants to remain anonymous, told her architect the hi-tech bungalow on the Lower Mill Estate in Gloucestershire must include separate deluxe living quarters for her two pets.

The plush kennel, estimated to cost more than £250,000, will be the latest eccentric build on the Cotswold Water Park, already famous for its futuristic, sustainable designs and its population of beavers.

The doghouse features two bedrooms and a living room, a 52-inch plasma screen TV with surround sound stereo, sheepskin-lined beds, retina-controlled “dogflap” doors, a temperature-regulated dog spa, security cameras, and internet-controlled heat. Link -via Arbroath

    This is exactly what we need for a failing economy.

    Conspicuous consumption is never pretty.

    We are indeed in the gilded age. Where there is a demand, there will be a supply.

    “internet-controlled heat”…

    Does that mean there is a webpage out there waiting to get hacked so we can cook the spoiled things?

    Wow, I have a very similar setup. It’s called “my house” and my dog is nice enough to let me live here with him. :)

    Wow, I didn’t realize we’d solved human poverty. This is great news!

    I wouldn’t do this if I had the money to spend, but if someone can and feels like it, then it’s no one’s business to criticize it as it isn’t our money. My only real criticism of this is that all this luxury is lost on dogs. They’d just rather chill on the couch with you.

    wouldn’t they be happier with £250,000 of sexy bitches?

    So the owners never have to see or interact with the dogs, they can just push buttons remotely and take care of their needs. Nice.

    Wow… just wow. If someone has that much money to just throw around, how about making a luxury homeless shelter?? Can I get an AMEN?!

    I think the planes would be 250 miles apart after two hours. If I’m right and picked as the winner, I would love Mr. Bacon’s Big Adventure!
