Dog Days of Summer Camp

This week, Ellie attended a Dog Days of Summer day camp sponsored by the Brookhaven Animal Rescue League.  Throughout the week, the campers learned funny dog songs, made some cool crafts, listened to visits from special dog trainers and vets, and practiced useful dog training skills.  Although it was quite hot, they had a blast!  The League volunteers brought special dogs for the children to play with througout the week.

On the last day of camp, family members were encouraged to come meet the League dogs and see the campers show off their new training skills.  Ellie did so well with Lowery.  Here's Papa & Ellie enjoying a few sweet moments with the friendly pup.
