The society’s manager, Vicky Finnemore, said the Fore the Boys Golf Club raised funds to build the structure with six kennels.
In January Finnemore said: “We plan on providing a highly sterile environment for puppies aged six weeks and older.”

She explained the kennels are needed as puppies are extremely susceptible to diseases and can easily be infected in normal kennels as they are not vaccinated.
“We will have three kennels on each side of the building with an entrance and pathway in the middle. We will also have a bathing station,” she said.
Fore the Boys chairperson Tim Smit said the club chose the SPCA as their beneficiary because animals are close to their hearts and he said animals need love too.
“We jumped at the opportunity to give the puppies a good start to getting adopted,” he said.
