Reverend is a 12-year-old German Shepherd mix. He is very shy at first but once he warms up to you he will love you forever.

Walley
Wally is the sweetest Terrier mix ever! He is not quite one year old yet so he has a lot of puppy energy. Camp is a perfect outlet for him to socialize and get exercise.
He is always so excited to visit Camp; he gets whole-body wiggles each morning he sees the Camp Counselors!
You can find him playing with his best furiends Lily & Bodie in Play Yard 1.
We love Wally's facial expressions! While he is lively in the play yard, he also enjoys sitting on your lap and cuddling!
Congrats, Wally

Teddy is as sweet as the come; he brings his favorite stuffed monkey toy to Camp each time he visits. He pawsitively loves when we use his monkey during a Play Pals enrichment session - he goes bananas for it! The Camp Counselors enjoy that he is equally playful and snuggly in the yards. How can you not snuggle that cute face?! Congratulations, Teddy Bear, we ♥ you!

Pedro
August is Pedro's barkday month so we couldn't have picked a better time to celebrate him! Pedro is a one-year-old (as of August 11th) Maltipoo who is the life of the party! This zippy boy always has tons of energy and is ready to P L A Y! He loves to run around and romp with his furiends. Pedro gets along with every pup in the play yard but especially loves playing with Will.I.Am and Scooter. If you can spot him zipping around on the Camper Cams, he usually is in Tea Cup or Play Yard 1. Pedro's mom affectionately calls him "Pedro The Wonder Dog!" and we know why. Weighing at almost 5 pounds, he is the most social tea cup pup you'll ever meet and has a bow tie for every occasion! Congratulations, Pedro! We can't wait to celebrate your barkday with you too!

Spock and Missy
These two sweet pups are long time Campers from East and West! Spock and Missy are Chihuahua mixes with great personalities. All of us know when they arrive at Camp as Missy's favorite thing to do is bark to greet all her friends bright and early; She gets so excited for Camp! Spock loves attention from the Camp Counselors, especially scratches behind his ears! He likes to hop up on the ramp to survey the play yard. One of our favorite things to do is read their bedtime stories - they each have their own PJs that we put on and they usually fall asleep during the story from how relaxed they are! While they are starting a new adventure in Arizona, we are so thankful to have had them as part of our Pack! They will be greatly missed and we sent them on their way with lots of love and snuggles. It's never goodbye, it's bark ya later!

He loves to chill on the play equipment and survey the yard while all the dogs run around him. Cy is a super sweet pup when he gets groomed by Delani - we think he thinks he's getting a massage the whole time! Congratulations Cy, we will be sure to give you extra lovins' this month (and every month)!?
