Leading doggy day care and boarding franchise marks milestone with first Kentucky location
WESTMINSTER, Colo., March 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Camp Bow Wow, North America's largest doggy day care and boarding franchise, has opened its 200th Camp, marking a major milestone for the growing brand.
Camp Bow Wow Lexington East, the first Camp Bow Wow location in Kentucky, is owned by James and Lisa Culp. The Camp welcomed the community and its first canine Campers this week.
"We congratulate James and Lisa on the opening of their beautiful new Camp and thank them for being part of our 200th Camp celebration. Fewer than 10% of franchise brands ever reach 200 locations, so this is an incredible milestone for us," said Camp Bow Wow President Julie Turner.

All Camp Counselors are trained in dog behavior and certified in pet first aid and CPR. Camps also offer live webcams so pet parents can check on their pups from anywhere.
