CAMP PAWSITIVE ADVENTURE

NEW FOR 2009!  CAMP WILL START THE YEAR WITH A NEW NAME - CAMP PAWSITIVE ADVENTURE!  LOCATION AND STAFF WILL REMAIN THE SAME!

CAMP PAWSITIVE ADVENTURE!

The 2009 Camp Pawsitive Adventure promises to be a fun time to enjoy with your favorite canine companion!  The camp includes all lodging and meals, as well as activities to enjoy with your dog from sunrise to sunset! This year, we are pleased welcome Luke Robinson to camp!  Luke is walking over 2,000 miles from Austin to Boston with his two Great Pyrenees, Hudon & Murphy to promote canine cancer awareness.  Luke will be teaching us his backpacking secrets and describe his backpacking adventures!    This year's camp features agility, lure coursing, land and water retrieving, sheep herding, rally, and obedience tips, as well as new events such as canine massage and carting!   We've also added a workshop with Kelly Malone.  Kelly has been our herding instructor for several years, and has vast knowledge of our canine friends.   You won't want to miss Kelly's workshop!  There will also be Canine Good Citizen testing and testing for Therapy Dogs International during camp!
