I stand to gain very little from the Strike.

I agree, but then I firmly think that this action is over stopping the losses, not trying to make gains

I have a 3 year plan in place to get dog kennels and move to the county Just need to hang on in there for 3 years ( Jimmy Carrs Laugh )

What kind of dogs are you going to keep ?

What he said. Basically buying a house with boarding kennels included on the property. The 1 we looked at had 12 kennels, which were fully booked thru the year, and it was roughly £30 a day plus extra if they stayed overnight and needed extra food etc, so thats £360 a day, £2000 a week! And basically all I would have to do is walk dogs for maybe 3 hours a day, and clean up poop. If the house is in the right location, this was in the country near a stream and woods, its perfect. People will always have dogs, people will always like holidays abroad, people will always need dog kennels - we where just short of the funds and it would have left us stretched, so we decided to wait 3 years until we are in a better position

It might just be me jcl but if it was in a rural location and so lucrative why would they sell?

They where desperate to move abroad, he was 68 and she was a bit younger, and theyve done it for about 15 years after they retired. They dropped the price a fair bit too. Unfortunately its sold now, but there will be other opportunities, it just wasnt meant to be this time. 100% a future plan though

I could not do that job/opportunity after the dogs I have faced good luck though we all need to get out of this place and soon.

TBH Jimmy, it sounds a good plan. A girl left RM from our office after taking a dog grooming course and was mobile for a time and worked part time as an OPG. Fortunately she lived in a large house with land and built some kennels and has now branched out to a pet shop. Personally I wouldn't leave my dog in kennels and never have with all the dogs I've had but lots of people do; my next door neighbour regularly leaves his pet at a kennels and it's quite a distance away.
