Default Albino Bloodhounds Kennels and Training Area

Off to the left of the Creature Holding Room, you will see a door you probably haven't noticed before if you've been around Level 4 for awhile. When you open the door, you will find yourself in a short white hallway that curves a bit to the right before opening up into a very expansive room with raised ceilings and extra lighting and echoing with the sounds of barking dogs.

To the right along the wall, there is a line of a dozen large kennels, each containing a single albino bloodhound. These large dogs are decidedly not your average pure white bloodhound, if there is such a thing, as they have been bred and trained for the sole purpose of hunting nogtails. However, they are, for the most part, friendly creatures that enjoy the company of humans - mainly, those that work with them. So if you are one of their handlers, they will probably be especially happy to see you. The dogs tend to blend in with their environment, the entire place having been painted a rich white with the exception of the floors outside the kennels and enchanted windows. They may have spilled their food and water bowls in their excitement to see you (assuming they haven't consumed all their food and water beforehand), so make sure to clean their messes up if need be. On the wall to the left of the kennels is a door, behind which is stored the food and supplies for the dogs.

On the far side of the room, across from the kennels, is the large enclosed arena where most of the bloodhounds' training will take place. The arena can be charmed and enchanted to feel and appear as any surrounding that the dogs could be in when working on a job. When the arena isn't charmed, the floors are covered with faux grass, with wall-to-wall enchanted windows to give the place more of an outdoorsy feel. On the wall to the right of the arena is a door with all the equipment needed to train, including fake nogtails and piglets.

Only those charged with caring for these creatures have access to this room. All others need to first gain permission from the Department Head and Bloodhound Team Leader to have supervised access.
