| - I LOVE LOVE LOVE Camp Bow Wow!
My bf and I work very long hours, especially during the summer months. Although she is kennel trained, we both felt really bad about our pup having to stay home during the day for long periods of time. And of course she cant stay in her outside dog run because of the warm/hot weather.
I began to research dog day camps and I am so happy that I found CBW through Yelp. We have no children so our pitty is our baby. She is 2 1/2 years old but still romps around like a puppy. She always has so much energy and although she swims every weekend, the bf and I are usually very tired during the week and dont take her out to play (bad I know).
Her first day was yesterday and that was a free day because it was considered an interview day to see if she would be a good fit with the other dogs and for CBW. The staff was extremely friendly and answered all my questions. I was able to give them her food and the counselor even explained that they make sure that the pups dont play for 1 hr after eating which I appreciated because I don't want my pup to get sick with bloat. If you dont bring your own food they have their own food to feed the pups but I am not sure if that costs any extra. I did have to buy one of their quick release collars which was only $6, not bad at all; and they attach a little name tag for your dog (had to buy their because I didn't have one of my own). When I arrived to pick her up that evening they gave me a full run down of her day and even a little report card that said how she did; also they gave me a little welcome bag that had a sample of their food, your pets certificate (photo on it, how cute) that they passed their interview day and some coupons. When we got home my pitty who has ALWAYS been one to jump around and run around every where, went straight to her bed and laid down and she was out. She did get up to eat (she didn't eat during the day probably because she was overly excited) but after that went right back to sleep. She didn't even want to walk upstairs when it was bed time; usually she will run up them but this time I had to coax her to come to bed upstairs. The counselor at pick up warned of "camp hangover" and boy did she have it. Bad.
I took her for a second day of consecutive play today, she could barely contain herself in the car when we pulled up this morning; I think she knew she was back for more play. When we arrived on our second day both of the counselors remembered by pup and greeted her by name immediately, which she loved. Today she overly enjoyed herself again :) Came right home, ate, and passed out on the couch with us. She could barely keep her eyes open. At first the bf was iffy about a dog day camp but after her second day and seeing how happy our pup was and how well taken care of she was, he is convinced that CBW is a good thing for our family!
I didn't feel nervous leaving her there while I was at work because of the warm welcoming atmosphere. Everyone there at 7 am was all smiles! My favorite part is that I can check the cameras during the day to see how she is doing! You can do it on their website from the computer or buy the app from the App Store if you have an iPhone, it does cost $1.99 but I think it totally worth it to keep an eye on your baby (I always see a camp counselor supervising and playing with the pups). I like that they are located pretty much in the middle of town and its only a mile from my office. I love that all the pups are kept together by size and they are free to go in and outside as they please. The outside yard has shade and artificial turf.
I am super stoked that I have found CBW for our pitty. I no longer have to worry about her being locked up during the day. I can't afford to take her every day of the week but she will definitely be there 3 (sometimes 4 if I have a few extra bucks) days a week. Although my budget doesn't allow every day attendance, I do feel that their prices are extremely reasonable for all of the wonderfulness that CBW has about them. What a great staff and clean facility! I just cant say enough good things!
I would highly recommend them to fellow Yelpers, my family, and my friends.
