One-Week Adventure Dog Camp

Drop-Off Time:
Any Day of the Week Before Noon
Pickup: Before Noon

TBTB Adventure Camp is a full week of fun and activities created
especially for your dog. In addition to chaperoned leash walks,
your dog will be taken to the beach daily. Homer beaches are extremely
dog friendly and our canine friends are free to run, romp, swim, sniff,
and dig until their heart's content.

These basic doggie activities satisfy their natural instincts.
There will be a weekly field trip across the bay for
a trail adventure in the national park. Your dog will be transported
on a chartered dog-friendly boat along with two chaperons.
Weather permitting there will be shorter hikes on the
trails in Homer during the week.

Your dog will be served two delicious meals per day;
the evening meal will be served in a Kong. Kong dining provides your
dog a fun challenge and daily mental stimulation that house
dogs often lack. With only 5 dogs permitted in camp per week,
we have lots of time to pamper your dog.

Homemade training treats will be given throughout his
stay to reward your dog for good behavior. He will also have a pup tent of
his own for private napping, or if he prefers he may sleep on the couch.
Your dog will be drinking Pup-Pop filtered water treated onsite.

You will receive a photographic greeting card of your dog with a
written essay detailing his stay at Camp, a certificate of completion
and a group 8x10 photograph for framing.

Your dog will have so much fun he will want to come back year after year!

Training & Behavior Modification:

*Home Manners.
This method will teach your dog what is appropriate behavior within a household,
addressing specific unwanted behavior patterns, using positive reward
based motivation. Teaching home manners will be an ongoing process throughout
the length of your dog's stay. You will receive a review of your dog's progress
and written training recommendations to continue at home.

*Basic Obedience.
In an organized classroom setting your dog will learn to sit, stay, down and come
through repetition and rewards. The daily one-hour class will introduce him
to focusing on the task at hand with the distraction of other dogs in the room.
Practicing what is learned is essential and will be an ongoing focus for
your dog while he is involved in other activities at camp.

He will receive five basic lessons and will present what he has learned to you
when you return. You will receive a review of your dog's progress and
continued recommendations to follow at home.

Skin & Coat Care:

* Organic Spa Treatments for Sensitive Skin.
If your dog has body odor, itchy skin, hot spots or dandruff, our staff
will work with a holistic expert to prescribe natural treatments.
Using herbs and organic products, tinctures are made onsite to treat
specific skin ailments, along with shampoos and conditioners, and oral treatments.
Some ailments require internal cleansing as well as topical products.

All products used are 100% organic and natural with no chemical preservatives.
Once the problem source is identified your dog will come home with
written instructions for continued treatment.

* Grooming & Nail Clipping.
If your dog needs a trim, a brand new doo, or a major makeover we will schedule
an appointment and provide transportation to/from a professional salon.

* Diet & Nutrition Evaluation.
We will consult with a nutritional expert for evaluations on dogs that have food related
problems with weight, food allergies, itchy skin and dull coats. A written report
with diet and treatment recommendations will be provided to you.

* Full Body Massage.
If your dog suffers from sore joints, arthritis, muscle spasms,
or fear, a 30-minute body massage can do wonders.
Dogs love this individualized attention.
