I picked LANDSEND in the 70s (before the clothing company with a similar name became popular--although I most likely wouldn't win a fight with THAT company.) I got the name from a couple places: PORTRAIT OF JENNIE, an old black and white movie starring Jennifer Jones and Joseph Cotten, had a lighthouse called LANDSEND LIGHT. Also, one of my favorite (dead) poets, Weldon Kees, wrote a poem called Land's End. In my mind's eye and in reality, Landsend Kennels is an isolated place where dogs rule. There are forests, paths and all sorts of animals of nature. Landsend: End of the land.
