Our three locations, Tucson, Vail and Sahuarita, are free of the kennels and runs that promote stress and unwanted behaviors. Camp Jimmydog offers a unique, cage-free boarding experience for your dog. Free of the kennels and runs that promote stress and unwanted behaviors. Your four-legged family members are welcomed into our safe, comfortable home and loved as one of our own. We accept a limited

number of guests to insure that everyone gets the individual love and attention they deserve. Sahuarita and Vail. Both of our locations are owned by CJD and are single family homes on beautiful properties. Each has two extra large yards for everyone to run and play as well as space to sit and watch the birds, enjoy the shade of a tree or find a comfy spot in the house.. Our guests are welcomed into the homes and have their choice of plentiful dog beds and quiet spaces to relax alone, with old or new friends, or just hang out with us. There is also dedicated play space in each home so that even in the summer heat there is a cool place to play. Multiple dog doors mean no one is ever locked in or out. Safety is always foremost in our minds. Both locations have 6′ fencing. Both homes are furnished, decorated and maintained with our guests in mind. We are extremely mindful of what could be chewed on, eaten, knocked over etc. While we very rarely have issues with the pups and cactus at our Sahuarita location, the Vail location has had all cactus removed or relocated. At Camp Jimmydog, there is plenty of room to run, play and relax! It is a fun yet relaxed pack atmosphere where good manners are reinforced and unwanted behaviors, discouraged. All dogs have access inside and outside to a large, safe yard through two dog doors. Our many regulars get to know not only us but each other. It truly is home away from home for our visitors. Young and old alike can find a playmate or a quite corner with a comfy dog bed. Medications, including insulin, are not a problem and are no extra charge to administer. I have been working with pets professionally for over 20 years. I am an experienced dog trainer /behaviorist and pet first aid and CPR instructor.

Severe arthritis and mobility loss are common reasons owners choose euthanasia when a dog’s pain is unmanageable. Muscle atrophy, loss of muscle from aging, inactivity, or illness, worsens mobility and quality of life.

A new peer-reviewed study found about 42% of gut microbes can fully produce lysine, an essential amino acid dogs cannot make themselves. Lysine is vital for senior dogs, supporting muscle maintenance, protein use, and collagen for joints and connective tissue. Microbial lysine may also reduce nitrogen waste, important for dogs with kidney or liver issues and help pets with gastrointestinal disease. Deficiency is linked to muscle wasting, weight loss, and weakness.

Why gut microbes matter:
· Repetitive diets: Feeding the same food long-term can shrink microbial diversity and reduce amino-acid-producing bacteria.
· Low diversity (dysbiosis): Fewer “backup” microbes means lost lysine producers aren’t replaced.
· Aging: Seniors naturally lose gut diversity, further reducing internal lysine support.

Benefits if microbes can make lysine:
· More dietary protein is used efficiently
· Less nitrogen waste for kidney or liver patients

There are probiotics that can help:
· Lactobacillus reuteri: Supports amino acid metabolism, gut barrier function, and lysine uptake.
· Bacillus subtilis BS50: Helps release lysine from dietary protein, making lower-protein diets more effective.
