Veteran K9 Ranch – Building A Home for Heroes

We are SO PROUD of our New Houston Area Kennel for our Hero Working Dogs!

With any new facility there are needs for start up items to help make our kennel the best it can be for our Retired Contract Working Dogs, Military Working Dogs and Police K9’s.

So many have given toward the needs of the ranch! We appreciate you so much and will post an updated video soon! (Updated 5/21/2017)

Veteran K9 Ranch Start Up Needs

Upgraded Kennel Air Conditioning Unit – NO LONGER NEEDED

This was donated to MissionK9’s Veteran K9 Rescue Ranch by:

American Comfort Solutions – WWW.COOLAIRSAM.COM – Thank you SO MUCH!!!

800 ft. of 6ft. Galvanized 9 Gauge Chain Link Fence and Associated Hardware

Cost of the Fencing is approximately $6000 plus installation – This is for the perimeter of the property and is still an need, although not critical. (Updated 5/21/2017)

Upgraded Septic System – once Outdoor Runs are installed it will be a must have.

Cost of Septic Improvements are being evaluated at this time and when outdoor runs are installed a separate system will have to be in place.(Updated 5/21/2017)

Exhaust Fans for Air Movement in Kennel and DeHumidification

Cost of Exhaust Fans and Installation is $1500 for a pair of Louvered Fans – This is still a need but not critical. (Updated 5/21/2017)

External Doors for Kennel Runs

Cost of Doors and and Installation for all our runs is $6480 – Still a need but not critical. (Updated 5/21/2017)

Drywall Installation for External Kennel Run Doors

(Building is Metal, once holes are cut the insulation will be exposed.
Drywall is needed to prevent the dogs from being exposed to it)

Install and Materials are Approximately $2800 – This is still a need but not critical. (Updated 5/21/2017)

Vehicle for Veterinary Transport, Kennel Supplies, Etc.

We have leased a van to serve our needs temporarily – We can certainly use a vehicle specifically designed to transport dogs however the cost is high. (Updated 5/21/2017)

With any new venture, there are always start up expenses.

We thank YOU for helping us make our new facility the BEST it can be for our Retired Hero Dogs!
