£250,000 Dog Kennel Posted: 27 Nov 2008 09:52 AM PST 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.
