About

Camp Canine was opened in 1996 because we had a dog that we refused to leave in a traditional kennel. When we thought about the reasons for our reservations, we concluded that we would feel more comfortable leaving our dog at a less confining, less routine-destructive environment--more like a canine camp! With that, the idea of Camp Canine was born.

From the beginning we realized how hard it would be to provide a routine that was totally against the flow of a traditional kennel. But we concentrated on how important it was for pack animals to be in an environment that was interactive, social, and allowed dogs to be dogs. Armed with the knowledge of the difficulties ahead and motivated by our sincere desire to create a true camp for canines, we developed a facility and a routine that is unmatched by any other canine care establishment.

Camp Canine history has proven over the years that our routine addresses both the physical and psychological needs of dogs, resulting in happier, better adjusted campers. Dogs do not need to be confined 20 hours a day when away from home, as this idle time causes stress. Camp Canine is not a kennel; we are a benchmark facility specializing in interactive care.
