Dreaming of Lake Tahoe’s mountain landscapes, fresh air and hiking adventures? Interested in private beach access, plus a full week of fun and education for you and your pups? You can still catch the early-bird rates for the Wild Blue Dogs Fall Camp, taking place September 18-24, 2022.
Wild Blue Dogs, a nonprofit organization that raises awareness and funds for canine cancer treatment, has led several years of successful dog camps on the shores of South Lake Tahoe. A good time and feel-good vibes are guaranteed for all. Choose between several lodging options, including a dog-passionate lodging property and classic 4-H camp cabins, or make your own reservations at an off-site property.
These interactive camp sessions are all-inclusive, and you’ll choose from three lodging options. It’s bring-your-own sleeping bag and toiletries for the on-site 4-H cabins, where you’ll be assigned a roommate for your adventure. Down the road in South Lake Tahoe, participants stay at the dog-passionate Tahoe Beach Retreat and Lodge.
Camp activities are designed to strengthen the bond between you and your dog. Past sessions have included dock diving, swimming lessons, paddle-boarding instruction, agility courses and group hikes along Tahoe’s dog-friendly trails. The week also features educational seminars led by veterinarians and canine health professionals — covering everything from nutrition to early cancer detection. It’s the kind of hands-on learning that makes a real difference in how you care for your pup at home.
The setting itself is hard to beat. The camp’s 33 securely fenced acres on the southeast (Nevada) side of the lake mean your dog can run and play in a safe, enclosed environment. Between scheduled sessions, there’s time for beach walks along the lake, naps in the shade and the kind of relaxed socializing — both human and canine — that happens naturally when a group of dog lovers spends a week together.
Or you can make your own reservations off-site. The special pricing for fall camp activities expires on April 30, 2022. You’ll also receive a $100 bonus when you refer a friend (or friends!) to Wild Blue Dogs’ camps.
