Quite simply, it is a stunning, calm and restful dog hotel.

This design is ideal if you have any of these needs:

• Desire a high-end, show-stopping look with ultra quiet and calming design features, or if you have a very private setting.

• Have concerns about your climate (extremes of hot or cold temperature).

• Have concerns about security or noise.

10 Suite Dog Hotel with reception, office, kitchen, a toilet/shower room and a store/laundry/grooming room.

This simple diagram shows the different functional areas by colour:

Key:    Green = corridors | Orange = sleep/run | Blue = utility areas | White = reception

Easy to customise

• Inludes all 3 x external wall finishes of render, cladding, or a mix of both - for you to choose from.

• Make windows and doors glass (or even mesh or bars).

• Create more extensive sleep or run areas by 'removing' the corridor on one side of the building to create to take it to the outside wall.

• Don't want such a big room for grooming/store or another area? Make it whatever you want it to be! Just request changes from us, or tell your builder.

Making it happen...

To get the ball rolling you will need to supply your local authority with a set of plans to apply for planning/zoning permission.

Your plans will be seen by those who make the decision about granting your application, including your Planning/Zoning Officer, Highways/Traffic Officer, and Dog Boarding Licensing Officer.

Layout & Sizes

All dimensions are shown on the plans in a choice of either metric (metres & millimetres) or imperial (feet & inches) measurements - it's your choice.

Bringing your dream to life...

Photo-realistic 3D visualisation & motivation aids

Planning/zoning find these useful to visualise what you have in mind. Remember, their knowledge will be limited to poorer standard kennels that result in lots of noise. You need to be the expert here.

• Planning/ Zoning department
• Builder/Architect

They are also useful for showing customers what you are building and on your marketing materials while your kennels are beings built. They can be used for your:

• Future customers
• Website, advertising, brochures, leaflets, flyers & business cards

Ten x 3D Visualisations included

• 3 x Rendered Walls (day, night & snow)
• 3 x Cladded Walls (day, night & snow)
• 3 x Part Rendered & Part Cladded (day, night, snow)

Price Comparison

Compare typical architect/designer fees with ours:

How are we able to offer such a great price?

David has expert knowledge and many years of experience, so there is no 'learning curve' for him in the way that there will be for architects and designers who have not built kennels or veterinary hospitals before. Our blueprints are purchased by many owners in different countries, to be adapted and decorated by each individual to suit, therefore the cost is shared.
