The Kennel Facility Design Checklist covers 43 critical facility points across 9 professional categories — built from real operating experience, not theory.

Professionally sourced facility evaluation points — none of the guesswork, all of the detail
Who This Is For
This checklist is not generic. It was designed for the exact decisions aspiring kennel operators face in the real world.
Use this checklist before you finalize plans, hire a contractor, or commit to a building approach. Catch expensive oversights before they become permanent.
Walking a potential kennel property? Know exactly what to look for, what questions to ask, and what deficiencies will cost you to fix before you make an offer.
Already operating or taking over? Use this as a systematic audit tool to identify gaps in your current facility against professional operating standards.

At johngkent.ca, he translates nearly a decade of hands-on facility management, regulatory navigation, and operational problem-solving into practical education for the next generation of kennel operators.
This checklist was assembled from real facility decisions, hard-won lessons, and the questions John wishes he had asked before opening day. It is not sourced from textbooks. It comes from the kennel floor.
