Camp Bow Wow/Home Buddies
They don’t spend their time making lanyards or key chains; however, campers can enjoy other activities at Camp Bow Wow. According to the company, “Camp Bow Wow Premier Doggy Day and Overnight Camps provide a fun, safe, and upscale environment for dogs to play, romp, and receive lots of love and attention.” Canine campers can attend a day camp, with indoor/outdoor play areas, or an overnight camp, with the play areas and climate-controlled cabins. Some camps offer grooming, training, and retail items. Camp Bow Wow franchisees receive training, covering operations, dog behavior, group play, sanitation, pet first aid, and other subjects. Ongoing support is also provided.
