The Village at Squaw Valley is paying tribute to man and woman’s best friend with the 3nd annual Peaks and Paws Festival on Aug. 25-26.

Dogs and their people can enjoy 16 wineries, beer, 12 hours of continuous live bluegrass, pet themed art, and activities and outings specially designed for furry friends.

All of the proceeds from the festival will benefit the Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe.

Headlining at Peaks and Paws are the Dead Winter Carpenters, a high-energy, Americana/roots-infused five-piece band from North Lake Tahoe, and the Emmitt-Nershi Band, whose co-founders cut their teeth with Leftover Salmon and the String Cheese Incident respectively. The festival lineup also includes a host of other acts including The Iguanas, David Jacobs Strain, Head for the Hills, Tony Furtado and Bison.

The Peaks and Paws Festival is 11am-6pm each day.

The wine tasting costs $25 per day.
