INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Patty Spitler of “Pet Pals TV” says the Camp Bow Wow dog care franchise offers a safe and structured way for dogs to meet new canine friends, ensuring a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners.

During a segment on Saturday on “Daybreak,” Kathy and Mike Underwood from Camp Bow Wow said that their introduction process involves a controlled “interview” where dogs meet one another by sniffing each other’s behinds, rather than face-to-face, to prevent anxiety and ensure comfort.

“Dogs are like children. They’ve got their own personalities, their own likes and dislikes,” said Kathy Underwood, emphasizing the importance of a gradual introduction.

The introduction process at Camp Bow Wow is designed to prevent dogs from experiencing “fight or flight” responses by allowing them to meet one dog at a time, starting with those of similar size.

Camp Bow Wow also requires vaccination information to ensure the health and safety of all dogs involved in the program.
