Luxury mansions now available for man's best

-

AS man’s best friends, dogs deserves the best in life, and when it comes to housing, a UK company is ready to offer them just that. Hecate Verona is all set to launch the world’s first line of luxury dog mansions, with the most expensive models costing up to $200,000.

Hardwood floors made from beech, oak and larch, walls, columns and balconies carved from marble and dolomite, indoor and outdoor lighting, automated food and water systems, treat dispensers, TV and sound system, these are just some of the things you can expect when paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for a luxury dog house for your beloved, pampered pet.

They are the best pet homes money can buy, but with prices starting at around $40,000 and reaching up to $200,000 for the high-end models, you’re going to have to spend a lot of it.

During the developmen­t stage, Hecate Verona ran several tests on different breeds, and consulted experience­d veterinari­ans in order to create the perfect living space for dogs.

“As a result, the living space has been divided into a bedroom and living room, with the latter giving a good panoramic overview of the surroundin­gs,” Luxuo reports. “Windows have been lowered accordingl­y to the dog’s height which gives the dog a clear view of the surroundin­gs and its territory.”

“Our customers and their dogs typically live indoors so we see our dog manor as an extra that gives a pet more comfort – it is dog’s own house that has all the comforts of an indoor living room, making the whole experience of staying outdoors more fun and enjoyable,” Alice Willimas, Creative Director at Hecate Verona said.

“This leads to the dog enjoying the outdoors even more and staying more active and that is highly recommende­d by veterinari­ans.”

The design and manufactur­ing of these exquisite dog mansions is led by a team of craftsmen with experience in yacht building, with the utmost attention to detail. The company also invites customers to work with the designers in order to implement their own ideas for the house they wish to purchase for their pet. Only when the customer is happy with the design and features, does the house go into production.

Speaking of features, these miniature luxury homes will spark the envy of most humans. The SmartSyste­m consists of various automated solutions that ensure the ultimate comfort and convenienc­e for both dogs and their human owners.
