Hounds Retreat was inspired by my own rescue greyhounds and my work in dog rescue and boarding kennels. Every one of my dogs has different needs, and I know how hard it can be to find the right kind of support.

That’s why I created a place where dogs get the care and enrichment they need—at their own pace and in their own way. My goal is for Hounds Retreat to be not just a retreat for dogs away from the busy world, but also to support owners who need it too.
