☀️ Camp K9 is for kids 10-15 years of age.
Your child will experience specific training techniques to use on a current or future pet. Campers have the opportunity to work with and socialize our shelter dogs. This enrichment is vital on their journey to finding forever loving homes. Safety of all campers and dogs is our priority.
