To dream of a dog kennel means that in real life, you have to limit themselves largely to accumulate the amount needed to buy things without which you can not conceive of their continued existence. Empty doghouse portends frustration over the fact that the purpose to which you have so long and persistently sought turned out to be completely different properties that make you frustrated and in love as such and in general human decency as a human trait.
To dream that you are at the kennel, indicates that you are feeling shut out of some situation or relationship. It may also represents feeling of being unwanted or unloved.
