Nestled deep in the rolling bluegrass hills of Kentucky lays the grounds of a large kennel spread across ten acres.

On the main property is the house. A large beige craftsman style home with dormer windows on the top. A two car garage is attached to the house. One half of the garage has several cages and a large washing sink. Along the back wall is two large cabinets containing various supplies such as bowls, leashes, and toys. The bottom shelves of the garage has labeled buckets of dog food.

The other half of the garage had a thick horse mat on the ground for indoor training purposes

The other half of the garage had a thick horse mat on the ground for indoor training purposes. There was a gate separating both sides, with a latch door.

A few yards away was an even larger, detached metal garage. Inside here was an office and fifteen kennels on each side. Both ends of the garage had opening garage doors, to allow the kennels to be aired out.

Wood separated the kennels on the sides and black wire with latch doors allowed open view from the front. Each kennel had a dog house with blankets on the inside. Two bowls for food and water hung on all the doors. Various toys were available for every dog.

Woven ropes leads hung outside the doors of each kennel, allowing quick access for the caretakers to take the dogs out

Woven ropes leads hung outside the doors of each kennel, allowing quick access for the caretakers to take the dogs out. The entirety of the main property was securely fenced.

Just off the main property was a pond, with small coops on each side. Lily pads floated on the corner of the pond. The bubbles from an air pump could be seen in the middle of the pond. Various ducks swam across the water.

Behind the pond was a small wooden structure with hay littered on the inside of it

Behind the pond was a small wooden structure with hay littered on the inside of it. A large water trough sat on the other side of the structure. Different goats grazed the field surrounding the pond. A separate enclosed pen attached to the back of the wooden structure allowed the goats safety for bad weather and the night.

A path cut across the field and looped around the pond, then followed the fence line going into the main property

A little ways away in front of the house and kennels was a large agility course. Large wooden walls and structures were available for training. Various jumps, tunnels, and other challenging obstacles were scattered across the grounds.

The rest of the property was covered in tall trees
