Camp Happy Tails

A summer day camp where kids learn compassion, empathy, and respect for animals.

All About the Camp

Gulf Coast Humane Society's Camp Happy Tails gives campers the inside scoop of the shelter while learning about our mission and its importance in the community. We focus on compassion, empathy, and respect for our animals as well as each other. Campers experience animal interactions, outdoor activities, guest speakers, crafts, and much more!

Please note that GCHS Camp Happy Tails is not licensed by the Texas Department of State Health Services. Space is limited to 30 campers per session.
