Camp Activities

The schedule is carefully designed to offer you and your dog(s) plenty of choices for each activity period, while at the same time taking into account needed time for rest and relaxation. You customize your day by deciding which activities you would like to attend, or you can "do your own thing" and take advantage of the trails, open fields, or the beach. Camp is a great environment in which to learn, so beginning level activities are always available. Camp activities include (Note: Activities may vary by session):

Rainy Day Activities In case of rain, activities continue as scheduled at Camp Dogwood unless it is a downpour or thunderstorm. Many of our sport activities have secondary indoor locations, but we also have rainy day alternatives like: The "My Dog Can Do That" Game... Dog Trivia Contest... Dog IQ Test... Videos in New Lodge... Trick Training... Bonus Arts & Crafts... Clicker Training Workshops... Team Building Techniques for Agility... and more. No one likes rain, but we're ready!
