The Camp Dogwood website is a place to learn what our dog camp is all about. Please take some time to browse our site and learn more about our programs, the staff, and upcoming Camp Dogwood sessions & events. Located within relatively short drives outside of Chicago Illinois, Camp Dogwood is a place where roaming off-leash, playing on a dog-friendly beach, and experiencing the joy of running with the pack are not only encouragedthey're scheduled!  

Camp Dogwood is devoted to enhancing your knowledge about your dog, the bond between you and your dog, and the role of dogs in our community. Our mission is dedicated to:

The Dog...

Camp Dogwood is committed to providing educational programs regarding the health, behavior and emotions of our canine friends. Such programs will be offered within a framework that respects the diverse nature of available canine related information.

The Bond...

Camp Dogwood is committed to providing a range of activities that balance opportunities for developing the dog's potential, as well as, enhancing the relationship between human and dog companions. Relaxation and recreation for both humans and dogs are at the root of activities.

...And the Community

Camp Dogwood is committed to promoting the positive role that dogs play in our society by supporting programs that improve the quality of canine life within our communities. Additionally, fundraising events such as our Good Bones program, The Dogwood Yard Sale and the Scrub-'Em-Yourself-Dog-Wash generate proceeds, which are returned to the dog community by Camp Dogwood.
