However, the owners of these kennels seem to be rather poor, as they have to live in them with their pets. They can't afford a house of their own!
Hi 40 Deluxe. There are people in Australia with those kennels as well. some don't even have a dog. There are reasons for these "dog houses". Some choose to live in high population density cities where building blocks are small and expensive, some by financial constraints and some simply don't like housework. However there is a silly practice here, when a couple retire and the kids have left home they build their "dream home" which is much bigger than they really require. It is prominent, sort of a display and I call it their trophy home. A display of their success, "look, I made it in life".
