The Zen Dog Retreat
Located in the serene hills of Temecula Valley, California, Zen Dog Retreat provides the most exceptional care and love for your dog while you’re away. Your dog will experience life as a ranch dog and will be able to run and play on five acres in the countryside. A
typical day would include a morning hike and play time in the pasture, a nap in the late morning, a swim in the natural pool midday, followed by a meditative session on the lawn, and then an evening romp in the avocado grove. Your dog will be able to pick his own avocado and chew on any stick he happens to find. It’s life as it should be for your best friend. Your dog will experience a vacation as good as yours, if not better. At the Zen Dog Retreat your dog will experience nature, serenity, play and peace. And you will have the peace of mind that your dog will be safe, comfortable and absolutely happy.
The Zen Dog Retreat is owned and operated by Karen Alwerud, an avid dog and animal lover. For years the Alwerud family has had more than a few animals running around the ranch. At one point they had six dogs, two horses, two birds, a hamster, two lizards and a fish. Now, Karen has opened her home to other people’s beloved pets and enjoys every minute of it. Karen has been riding horses for seventeen years and has a passion for working with animals. Currently Karen has a ten year old Yorkshire Terrier named Chloe and a Senegal parrot named Riley. She will treat your dog with the same love and care that she does her own. Karen welcomes you and your dog to come take a tour of the Zen Dog Retreat and while you’re at it we recommend you stop by the local Temecula Wineries!
