What Affects the Dog Kennel Cost?
Size of the Dog Kennel
It’s obvious that the sizing of the dog kennel would affect the price of it. The more materials we have to use, and the more time is put into building the kennel, the higher the dog kennel cost would be. The Dog Kennel Collection can custom-build kennels in various sizes to fit your specific needs. Our smallest dog kennel size shown on the website and catalog is a 4×8 and our largest size is a 24×60.
Style
In our collection of dog kennels, you will find both the homeowner kennels and commercial dog kennels come in traditional and elite. The difference between the traditional and elite is the trim package. We also offer dog kennel/shed combos as mentioned above, which would increase the cost of the dog kennel.
Features and Options
Features and options here at The Dog Kennel Collection are practically endless. We will mention some, but we will attach a link for the catalog below, so you see what we mean.
One of our customer-favorite options is the electrical package which is an additional $486 for residential kennels and $1,165 for commercial kennels.
A unique feature we offer is the Radiant Floor Heat System with Thermostat-controlled Whelping Pads. This kennel option has multiple heat zones in one whelping nest to allow to keep the temperature consistently warm which is especially important for the first two weeks of a puppy’s life.
This feature can be added to the commercial kennels, but the cost would depend on the size of the kennel (call for pricing).
Dog Kennel Shipping Cost
Shipping costs can vary anywhere from $100 to $5000+, it all depends on the size of the building and the distance to the delivery location. Some larger commercial buildings require to be delivered in halves, so that will cause the shipping costs to be in the $5000+ range since it would need two trucks or two trips to be delivered. On average, here at The Dog Kennel Collection, we charge $2-$3 a mile depending on the size of the building.
