The hounds have been settled in their new home since May 2019 at Jill Wade’s Wishful Thinking Farm.
She has more than 100 acres of fields and woods for walking out.
It’s a 30×40 foot insulated building with a concrete floor, a convenient garage door, indoor and outdoor kennels and a securely fenced yard.
Total cost of this project has come in around $40,000, but it has left the hunt about $11,000 of indebtedness.
