Oh for God’s sake, some people have more money than sense: this £250,000 kennel is case in point. If you're shelling out mega bucks like this, you'll probably want to know what you get. Here goes:
- Lined with sheepskin
- Temperature-controlled bed
- 18 inch deep spa
- $194,507 sound system
- Dog-friendly programs on a 52-inch plasma TV
- Chilled, filtered water
- Two dog bedrooms
- Climate control
Oh and they have‘Dog-vision’ webcams which allow their owners to monitor their activity 24 hours a day. It's all very nice, and I'm sure they are very happy, but as all dog owners know, their pets would be just as happy rolling about in sheep crap, chewing bones and chasing other dogs around.
