Yes, we’re a happy bunch! We get to spend all day with your loving, playful, precious dogs. It is great fun, but there might be a scientific reason why we’re so happy.  A University of Missouri-Columbia study showed that petting your dog for 15 minutes increases your serotonin levels, the feel-good hormone. I wonder how many hours a Camp Bow Wow Counselor spends petting dogs each day? That’s a lot of happiness!

While most of us here in San Antonio have been enjoying the recent much-needed rain, the cloudy days can take a toll on our mood.  On those cloudy days, take an extra 15 minutes to just spend time with your dog. Your dog isn’t the only one that will benefit from the extra attention.

There are so many benefits to being a dog owner and working at a doggie day camp. Dogs give us unconditional love, reduce our stress levels and are just so much fun!  We love that our clients let us spend time with their dogs every day.
