Long story short: I do not feel like this facility is good with hyper larger dogs. They seem to do…read morefine with small dogs, or large dogs who do not play much/are cuddly. Use caution trying out facility and watch cameras. Long story long: I have taken awhile to post this review, but I recently was contemplating my dogs stays. My dog, a staffy bully mix, attended many sessions of doggy daycare before I decided he was more hyper than this facility liked. They seem to not like dogs with much energy as mine would be constantly sprayed with water, chased down when he would try to get dogs to chase him as he loves running away, and would be in time out or isolated most of his daycare time for trying to play more. I also noticed on a few occasions him getting sprayed if he came up to even sniff another dog the counselor would be petting and shoved away/ shooed with feet. I had a long trip, 7 days, and on the last day of his boarding I was told he had an incident when he was with the other dogs. They stated he joined in on going after another dog that was not wanting to be messed with. I did not watch the incident videos as I was not offered them, but was told I would not get prepaid package days reimbursed. I had to email owner who stated I could , but then I had to follow up again a few weeks later when I was still waiting for check they forgot to send out. No biggie there. It was a first incident, and they had originally told me they do bad report cards and after 2/3 he would be dismissed. Not in this case, due to him "going after" another dog. My main reason for review is that my dog has attended another boarding facility with no issues to note. He is hyper and LOVES other dogs. He doesn't understand sometimes when other dogs are being aggressive to other dogs, and does think it is playing and joins in to "play". He is scared and cautious of people and will run away from them, but NEVER aggressive beyond some rough house playing.

I was impressed by the reception and instructions for our dog to be interviewed prior to be…read moreaccepted by the Camp in Lawrenceville NJ. Unfortunately, the subsequent interview was a negative experience. I was surprised and disappointed by the staff who had been so caring and positive before the interview. Here is what occurred. We arrived and our dog was taken into the large dog play area as we watched on camera. (btw, My dog is playful, sweet, two years old and has had many positive experience at doggie parks and with playdates) She was always near the back wall of the play area. They brought in the other dogs---as far as I could tell, they brought them in much too quickly. She never left the back wall and it was obvious that she wasn't happy. Once they opened up the outdoor area, her tail went up and she began moving around. At that point (after 30-40 minutes), we decided to let her stay and left as we were told that the staff would be watching her carefully. And, that they would remove another dog that was acting aggressively with other dogs. Around 30 minutes later, we received a call that another dog had attacked her and scratched her nose; that she was bleeding but was now Ok. We went to retrieve her. She was fine even though there were scratches. NO ONE from the Camp explained what happened. NO ONE has ever contacted me to explain or apologize. I believe that when the afternoon part time staff arrived, no one from the morning group had communicated that she was NEW....and they were to watch her carefully. They dropped the ball. They lost a potential customer. Obviously, they are not committed to the welfare of their clients. I would recommend staying away from Camp Bow Wow. What a disappointing experience. .
