Kennel
The word kennel has several meanings in relation to
Dogs:
- The small shed in which a Dog is kept; a
Doghouse.
- A collection of buildings or a property in which many Dogs are housed,
maintained, and bred, often used in the plural "the kennels".
- A breeding kennel, a
breeding
establishment for the propagation of
purebred Dogs,
whether or not the animals are actually housed in a separate shed, the
garage, a state-of the-art facility, or the family dwelling.
- A boarding kennel, in which Dogs are housed temporarily for a
fee.
In a breeding kennel, there is always a Kennel Name or Kennel
Prefix, which forms the first part of a pedigreed Dog's
registered name. Breeding kennels are heavily regulated and must follow
rules laid down by the
breed club, the
kennel council, and the local or state legislation.
