Gloucestershire farm looks to open commercial kennels

A Gloucestershire farming family is hoping to open commercial dog kennels on its land near Dursley.

The Steel family’s plans include converting calf-rearing boxes to eight kennels and a separate isolation kennel and external cladding to the existing buildings’ walls with timber.

In addition, the plans include an exercise field that would be fenced with a deer-proof design.

The plans state: “During their time at Ham Farm the dogs will provided with an exceptionally high level of care and they will be housed, fed and watered in well-proportioned and purpose-built kennels and be exercised in safe green spaces with ample opportunity to run and have fun.”
