LaurieMeet Laurie. She is like the Energizer Bunny, always in motion. One of the things she likes about working at camp is the fast-paced environment. You will find Laurie at the front desk, cleaning or straightening up the lobby and doing dishes or laundry. Since Camp is her second job, she truly appreciates the flexibility working at camp gives her. She is always telling clients about their dog and how great camp is for them. One of the most memorable moments was when a new client was worried about boarding her dog. As she started to cry at the interview process, Laurie gave the client a hug and assured her that her pup would be well taken care of. Her two dogs Magnolia (Mags) and Jordan (Jordy) enjoy their time at camp. Besides her dogs, Laurie's favorite camper is Blue. Blue just happens to be North's Member of the Month this month. When she does take time to herself, she likes to vacation in Aruba. It’s the special memories she made with her mom there, that makes her go back each time.

GingerGinger is an 8 ½ year old Black and Tan Coonhound that has been coming to camp for over six years. Ginger is the most content and tranquil dog that we have at camp. She comes to camp 3-4 days a week and boards when her family is away for a dance competition. We refer to Ginger as the mom of the camp pack because every dog in the yard absolutely loves Ginger; she is so gentle and allows any dog to sniff her without hesitation. We noticed that when other dogs are ready to take a nap, they lay behind Ginger in the yard as they may feel protected by her. Ginger usually hangs out in the corners of the play yard and occasionally heads outside to get a sun tan with her friends Ollie and Frankie. If there is one thing about Ginger, it is that she is the most kindhearted dog. Nobody bothers Ginger, and Ginger doesn’t bother anybody! Ginger enjoys boarding because she knows the counselors will give her hot dog on her breakfast and mid day peanut butter milk-bones! Ginger is a camp veteran and she continues to put a smile on our face each time we see her!

BessieThis sweetheart is Bessie! She is a boxer mix who has been coming to camp since July of 2013. Bessie comes to spend the night quite often and is literally the sweetest, most gentle dog ever. She loves her rest time in the cabin, and when you go to see her, she will roll on her back and request tummy pets, which we, of course, have to give! In the yard, she loves to be outside the most and take in the fresh air. Seeing Bessie's smile always brightens our day!

Ollie and Frankie
This pittie duo is Ollie and Frankie! They started coming to camp in March as little pups back in smalls and quickly grew up and moved to the big dogs. The brindle is Ollie and his sister is Frankie. They are just about one year old and still have a crazy amount of energy chasing each other around the yards! When they tire themselves out, they will curl up on each other and take a nap. It is the cutest thing ever! They sure do love sneaking some extra treats during their weekly play time with one of our counselors. We love them very much! -

MacMac the eight month old doodle puppy started coming to Camp in May! In the yards, we call him Little Mac- not to be confused with Big Mac and Mac Attack! Little Mac hangs out in the small dog yard, and he never stops playing! Well, maybe he’ll take a break to get some love from the counselor. Okay, he’ll definitely do that, but just for a minute so he can get right back to playing! Mac comes and plays his entire day all up until he gets picked up- and he’ll hop down the hall like a little goat all the way to lobby! Mac is such a great addition to our pack!

BlaizBlaiz is a 5 year old husky who has been a member with us for a while now! Blaiz “you can't catch me” husky never fails to spice up the play yards!

Blaiz loves to play with his friends, but he LOVES laying in the sun (even though he's a fluffy husky) and flopping over onto his back for some belly rubs. Blaiz is a one of a kind guy and everyday with him is a good day!

BanditBandit is a seven year old shaggy sheltie mix who has been coming to play at Camp for two years. Bandit comes into Camp expecting the royalty treatment, and that’s exactly what he gets (and deserves)! He crawls right into the front desk worker’s lap before he makes his way down to our small dog play yard. Once he’s there, he takes up residency in his cot. Every small camper knows that that’s Bandit’s spot, but he likes to share his snooze spot with his friends from time to time. Bandit is not shy about asking for pets, and we are more than happy to supply! Our day is made when Bandit walks through the front door!

March 2022 Counselor of the Month
Mike ShafferWe are so excited to announce that Mike Shaffer has been awarded the Camp Counselor of the Month for March! Mike has worked at our East location for 2 years and our camp has gone nowhere but up ever since. He has never called off a shift and always does what is expected of him. He goes above and beyond before his shift is over, and always comes into work with a clear and open mind. Mike has a bond with the campers like no other, and being around so many dogs that love him so much is the reason why he has such a passion for this job. One of our campers, Lila, is so attached to Mike that her owner said that if she ever had to give her away, Mike would be the one who got her. It's so amazing to see the relationships he builds with dogs and how attached they have gotten to him. That is the type of bond we want our counselors to have with our campers. Mike has a pup of his own, Molly, a German Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix who is attached to him at the hip. Some interesting things about Mike is that outside of work not only does he make his own music, he also installs swimming pools! Mike truly has put such a positive influence on our camp and we couldn't be more thankful that we have him as a part of our Camp Bow Wow family.

When the girls get here, they immediately run outside and so laps with their friends around the yard for a solid hour before they even say hi to their human friends. Archie, Kyla, and Zoey are some of their favorite chase partners. Rosie doesn’t care who she’s chasing as long as Josie is right there with her.
