Camp Bow Wow VIP Ribbon Cutting Party

Camp Bow Wow in Bentonville held it's VIP (Very Important Pooch) ribbon cutting ceremony on Thursday, July 10th at 5 PM. Tours inside were given of their state of the art facilities, that included T.V. monitors that watch all parts of the building, and 5 indoor/outdoor play areas.

One of the most interesting aspects of the facilities, which we did not get to see, was the Spray Master technology wet vac system, that utilizes earth friendly cleaning agents that are automatically metered into the water. The facilities are also temperature controlled between 68 and 74 degrees with a thermostat alarm. They also committed to maintaining a 15 dogs to 1 camp counselor ratio.

Personally, I was most impressed with the smart layout of the indoor fencing, that had gates that would swing open and lock in multiple configurations to other sections of the fencing and create directed conduits to send a group of dogs from one section of the building, like their runs, to a play area, without needing to wrangle any of them.

Jeff, Linda, and crew all worked very hard on this project. They were hard at it for almost a year before they opened, dropping off business cards at local businesses, networking, grass roots marketing at the dog events. They are almost as tireless as we are. I know how much work it is to get a business' doors open, and they've got a great facility - we wish them the best of luck!

Camp Bow Wow is having their official grand opening party on Saturday, August 2nd, and they will be present at our birthday party Saturday, July 26th to answer any questions and talk about all of their state-of-the-art amenities.
