Last year, our wonderful supporters helped us launch [**Camp Underdog!**](https://animalhaven.org/about/what-we-do/camp-underdog?hsLang=en) While nothing can compare to seeing all of our Underdogs unwind out of the city, we couldn't help but wonder **how we could incorporate the essence of Camp Underdog into their day-to-day lives.**

This year, we are excited to share some incredible news with you: we are expanding our program to create [**"Urban Underdog!"**](https://animalhaven.org/urban-underdog) Our goal with this initiative is to enhance the lives of our shelter dogs even further by providing them with more **frequent training and enrichment opportunities, more space to run and play, and increased time away from their kennels on a day-to-day basis. **

#### **A generous donor is helping kickstart our new program with a ****$10,000 MATCH if we can raise it by this Sunday!**
