Our story

Hey, I'm Rumble.

I'm a rescued Bernese Mountain Dog, and South Lake Tahoe is my whole world. Pine trees to sniff, snowbanks to face-plant in, a lake big enough to drink from forever — honestly, I lucked out.

My human noticed there were a lot of us Berners around town and figured we should stop just nodding at each other on the trail. So we made it official. Now Berner Crew gets together year-round: easy walks, snow days, beach hangs, and the occasional pizza-adjacent puppy picnic.

Everyone's welcome — Berner owners, future Berner owners, and humans who just want to meet a few big fluffy dogs. We give back a portion of what we do to NorCal Bernese Mountain Dog Rescue, the good folks who helped me land here.
