The owners of Chateau des Paws have "unleashed" the latest in luxury pet boarding. This elegant property mirrored after a turn-of-a-century French chateau replete with market square, private guest suites, antique lighting fixtures, is emblematic of one of the most sweeping changes in companion animal boarding. Its menu of services borders on the extravagant. But is also indicative of the changing role of the pet in the family, and growing emotional ties between persons and their four-legged companions. Compared to The Four Seasons for the furry set, this amenity-rich pet hotel, doggie daycare and spa offers luxurious accommodations for companion animals. Chateau des Paws is adjoined to Riverhead's East End Veterinary Emergency and Specialty Center. Services available are aromatherapy massages, lavender-verbena facial masks, and all-natural organic cuisine -- they're the hallmarks of a luxury hotel, and they're for Rex! Literally.
