[large]Got Dog? Canine Club Getaway Launches Vacation Getaway for Dogs and Dog Lovers[/large]

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) July 3, 2009 -- Canine Club Getaway, the only all-inclusive Catskills resort vacation where the dog is an integral part of the fun, launches its inaugural Getaway this fall. Scheduled for September 10-13 in Acra, NY, Canine Club Getaway will bring together dog lovers and their pups with top trainers and behavioral experts, dog sport instructors, a veterinarian and other dog professionals for a fun-filled weekend extravaganza.

"No dog left behind," is the motto of this unique vacation experience, which founders Janice Costa and David and Carole Kralstein describe as "a vacation paradise for dogs and dog lovers."

Attendees will have the opportunity to enjoy a host of dog-related activities, classes and seminars including agility, lure coursing, frisbee, flyball, rally obedience, hiking, swimming (and yes, dogs are allowed IN the pool with you!), prep classes for the Canine Good Citizen and Therapy Dog tests, "barks and crafts" and more. Those who want to venture into town can enjoy nearby golfing, antique shopping, boating and fishing.

But while dog-day afternoons are half the fun at CCG, taking your dog on vacation doesn't mean you have to "ruff" it, according to Costa and Kralstein.

"When you're not playing with your dog, you'll enjoy heated and air conditioned rooms with cable TV, wi-fi on the premises, delicious gourmet meals by a renowned chef, formerly of NYC's Russian Tea Room, Yappy Hour by the pool and nightly entertainment that runs the gamut from live music and dancing to karaoke," Costa notes.

"We're all about making sure the people and their pups feel pampered, because that's really what a vacation is all about," adds David Kralstein.

Passionate supporters of animal charities and rescue groups, Costa and Kralstein are also partnering with local animal groups to help raise funds to support these organizations. "For every guest who comes to us referred by an animal charity or rescue group, we will donate $25 to that group, and will make them one of the beneficiaries of our Silent Auction. We'll also distribute their literature to our guests to help raise awareness about their organization," they note.

About Canine Club Getaway:

Canine Club Getaway was originally conceived by four NY dogs in an effort to avoid being kenneled during vacation. With the help of their humans, they established what they've dubbed "any dog's dream vacation," with a host of activities that dogs and humans can enjoy together. From agility, lure coursing, swimming, hiking, flyball and frisbee to trainer- and veterinarian-hosted seminars, gourmet dining, Yappy Hour by the pool and nightly entertainment, CCG offers the ultimate all-inclusive vacation for dogs and the people who
love them.
