In 1945, Howard Bailey started a dog kennel on the property at Stiles St, Echo valley Fennel.
In 1956 my stepfather, Fred Realm, bOUght the property on Stiles Street.
When I was a child back In the Early o's ray parents, Fred and Mary Hoehn had a 50 dog kennel
license. They raised beagles, black and tans and coon hounds. At this time there were 3 kennels
that size In North Andover
In the late 's the town asked my mom to consider having the town dog pound on the property,
she had to pass on this due to my stepdads health
In the early 2000's, we dropped the number of dogs down to 10,
I have found dog license receipts from 1999, 2010 and 2012, also dog tags from the years 1990 and
2007, showing that there had been a large kennel on the property in the past.
I believe it was around the year 2019 that ray room didn't renew her kennel licenses.
My property is very secluded and would be a perfect place to have a dog kennel, besides for family,
our nearest neighbor is mile array. The property is abutted by The Charles ward Reservation,
The Andover Conservation, Dollops Brother Construction and Wi ll nn Herbert brother).
