Electronics giant Samsung is set to launch the world’s most expensive dog kennel.

Dog owners will soon be able to put their pet in the hi-tech luxury kennel at a price of £20,000 (Ksh 1.8M) for the ultimate luxury living. The futuristic structure was inspired by the growing trend to merge technology and pet care.

The kennel took a team of 12 designers and fabricators over six weeks to construct.

The proto-type indoor kennel consists of two areas; one for rest and relaxation, the other for dining and entertainment, as well as an outside astro-turfed leisure area.

TECHNOLOGY AND GADGETS
"With the Samsung Dream Doghouse, we wanted to reflect the nation's growing trend for using technology,” said Andy Griffiths, President, Samsung Electronics UK and Ireland.

Samsung research of 1,500 dog owners found that 64 per cent believe their dogs would benefit from more technology and gadgets, with a quarter (24 per cent) admitting they would like their dog to have treadmill and the same number (24 per cent) a TV or tablet.

A further 18 per cent said that they would like their dog to have a hot-tub or spa, while 22 per cent found the idea of a dog operated feeder the most appealing.
