Officer West and her family come to the facility to adopt Flash, the newest CAMP Dog Program graduate.

The second graduate of the Canines Achieving Miracles in Prison (CAMP) Dog Program at SCI Cambridge Springs has been adopted upon his exit from the facility.

Flash is a 2-year-old pit bull mix from the ANNA Shelter in Erie who had one leg amputated when he was younger. He successfully completed the eight-week CAMP Dog Program at Cambridge Springs, which improved his obedience skills. He was quickly adopted by Cambridge Springs Corrections Officer Trainee West.

Unit Manager (UM) Schneider said Flash's disability does not slow him down or discourage him, and he has a lot of love and energy to give to the West family.

Both CAMP Dog Program graduates (Wilson and Flash) have been successfully adopted.
