Pet Product and Service Award 2019

We are delighted to announce that we have been awarded the Best UK Wooden Animal Housing Manufacturer of 2019!  We were contacted by Lux Life magazine with the wonderful news that we had been nominated in the Pet Product & Services 2019 awards for our 100% customer satisfaction and high-quality wooden buildings.  Thank you so much to those who nominated us and voted.  We are so pleased to have recognition for all of our hard work over the past few years.  It hasn’t been easy juggling a business with family life, but we love what we do and certainly have no regrets!

Apex Kennel and Run with Combined Shed

A single dog kennel and run with a combined garden shed based on our Sandon Double dog kennel.


A popular product that maximises space in your garden, our combined dog kennel and garden storage shed provides a dual use building.  The wooden shed gives you an outdoor space for storing dog food and leads or garden tools and equipment; whilst the dog kennel and run provides your dog(s) with a safe and secure outdoor housing solution.  Built from high quality materials to include tanalised timber, tongue and grove cladding and heavy duty galvanised dog run panels.

Flight Aviary to the Isle of Wight

We went on a road trip to the Isle of Wight to deliver and install our popular wooden flight aviary.


We were very excited to receive an order for the Isle of Wight as it is somewhere we had never been before!  Our customer was happy to pay the extra cost to cover our ferry crossing and, as well as that, he also added a second aviary to his order!  We got the Portsmouth-Fishbourne ferry crossing after a decent journey south.  The sun was out and we were surrounded by gorgeous scenery.  It was the first time we’d visited the island so we took in the views on our way!

Bespoke Double Dog Kennel and Run

Based on our Sandon Triple dog kennel and run this double kennel had a total footprint of 15ft by 10ft 6inches.  Our customer wanted a single unit separated into two dog kennels that would accommodate her two different dog breeds.  So we altered our triple wooden dog kennel to have a 5ft wide kennel and run for her Akita and a 10ft wide kennel and run for her Great Dane.  The pop holes were made larger with one being 2ft x 2ft and the other a whopping 2ft wide by 3ft tall!  She also purchased our high quality stainless steel kennel dog bowl holders along with adding an internal draught board in the sleeping area.

Anti-Chew Lining for your Wooden Dog Kennel and Run

Stokbord dog kennel lining

Find out how to deter your dog from chewing the inside of your new dog kennel and run

There are many materials and kennel designs out there to prevent your chewer from damaging your wooden dog kennel.  We already provide PVC lined insulation which can hide any framework, but we wanted to offer another alternative.

So here it is… 6mm Stokbord at 4ft high can be fitted to the inside of your dog kennel’s sleeping area to remove any access to exposed framework.  You can also opt to have the lining to the front of the sleeping areas and to any exposed timber in the dog runs.   Made from 100% recycled plastic, this is a more environmentally friendly option and is also non-toxic.  When lining your kennel, you want to make sure that any materials used are safe for your dog.  This is the main reason why we have chosen Stokbord as it has no sharp edges that other materials such as sheet metal can have.  Please feel free to contact us for more information, or to discuss other materials that are used by our competitors.

Stokbord is an agricultural material and has a wide range of uses in the industry.  Used for many years for herding and containing cattle and livestock.  It is a strong yet flexible recycled plastic board that will extend the lifespan of your wooden dog kennel and run.
