Kids and Canines Work Together at Summer Camp

The Tampa Day School's campers prepared dogs for service this summer.

This summer, Tampa Day School student Nicholas Wimbish attended “Kids and Canines” — a four day assistance dog training program.

At the camp, Nicholas groomed and trained 2-year-old Lewis who is preparing to be a service dog.  Nicholas and Lewis bonded all week as they worked together. Soon Nicholas will be invited back to the graduation ceremony when Lewis is placed into service.
