Gone to the Dogs

Rising 6-8 Grade

Welcome to Gone to the Dogs, the ultimate camp for young dog lovers! This exciting day camp is designed for children ages 10-14 who are passionate about dogs and are eager to learn all about them. Throughout this camp, kids will train, care for, and dive deep into numerous dog topics. Throughout the week, kids will learn how to train basic commands while doing so directly with shelter dogs or ambassador dogs. The kids will also get to explore basic dog sports and do some basic training with a shelter dog or ambassador dog! Kids will leave this one-of-a-kind camp with a better understanding and lots of love for dogs, especially shelter dogs. 

Camp Highlights 

  • Dog Training: Kids will learn how to teach a dog basic commands like sit, down, and stay with the chance to practice their skills on real dogs. 

  • Dog Care: Kids will discover the importance of proper dog nutrition and daily care while learning how to care for dogs including feeding, brushing, and bathing!  

  • Dog Games: Kids will participate in pup-tastic activities like hide-and-seek with their dogs, learn about treat-retreat, and more interactive games with dogs. 

  • Meet the Experts: Special guest appearances by dog trainers will give campers a chance to learn from professionals who train dogs every day, including watching a dog play group of shelter animals. 

Morning & Afternoon Care 

Drop-off time for those without morning extended care is 8:45am or later. Extended care is available for an extra fee from 8:00 a.m. until 9:00 a.m. and from 4:00 p.m. until 5:00 p.m. You must register in advance for extended care.

If your child isn’t signed up for morning extended care, please plan to drop them off at 8:45 a.m. or later. A late fee of $1.00 per minute applies for late pickups (after 4:00pm without extended care or after 5:00pm with extended care.) If you think timing might be tight, we recommend signing up for extended care to make things easier for everyone!

For safety reasons, please do not drop children off early unless they’re registered for morning extended care. While staff are on-site, they won’t expect your child unless they’re signed up, and we want to be sure every camper is safely checked in.

Children Information

It is important to inform HAWS of any special needs; physical, medical, mental or emotional, that your child may have so that we can provide a successful HAWS experience. Failure to inform HAWS of any of these needs that are necessary to know when instructing your child may result in your child being unable to participate and a loss of program fees.

Payment and Registration

There will be a 30% administrative fee for all cancellations. There will be no refunds or transfers given within two weeks of the start of the program session.
