Humane Shelters and Boarding Kennel Buildings

The Process
What you can expect from us every step of the way.

It all begins with a conversation. Besides sheltering animals, what do you need your structure for? How many animals and operators does it need to accommodate? Is it private or public facility? Do you need grooming facilities? Who is your market? Where are you with your site selection and approval process? What’s your timeline? Have you thought about future additions? Do you need to plan for growth? We’ll ask you a lot of questions and we’ll listen closely to everything you say. We’re your partner, and want you to get the best kennel for your budget.

Consultation
Our free consultation will help you ask better questions-so you can zero-in on the features you need most and avoid overlooking something you might need. We can also direct you to the locations of the kennels, shelters and clinics that we've built, so you can see for yourself how our facilities standup to harsh kennel conditions. If you haven't already, visit the Request Info page to begin the Request For Proposal process.


	Design Blueprint After the initial consultation, we will provide you with a referral you can contact to have your kennel blue prints developed.


	Quote on Materials When the plans are accepted and approved, we can immediately go to the Engineering Phase of the process. A purchase agreement will be entered into and depending on the requirement of the project, an onsite visit may be necessary.


	Engineering Plans Created This service includes the pre-engineered building plan (Structural), the Foundation plan and anchor bolt layout. Plans are wet stamped certified by a licensed engineer for the county in which the kennel will be erected. This service is included with a signed Purchase Agreement.


	Materials Delivered As soon as a contractor has been selected, the building permits finalized and the foundation poured, we can deliver the materials to the job site.

	Building Erected Since the Houndquarters infrastructure is a pre-engineered, hot-dipped galvanized steel building, the kennel system can be erected quickly and efficiently. For projects to be erected by either the owner or a contractor hired by the owner, a factory consultant is provided to help oversee this process. The consultant is usually on-site for 3-5 days depending on the size of the project.

	Grand Opening! Enjoy your new kennel and howl at the moon.

"Our adoption center in Morganton, NC was built by Houndquarters in 2004. We are extremely satisfied with the efficiency of the building. It is aesthetically pleasing to the eye and efficiently designed, making it easy to maintain. We recommend Houndquarters to anyone who is wanting to build an animal shelter."
