About Camp-Ruff

Camp-Ruff, which the site also styles Lux Camp-Ruff, is first a boarding camp in Winston-Salem, set on two acres with fenced play areas. Its own pitch is for dogs that love "spoiling, companionship, the outdoors, and ruff housing with their K9 friends under the watchful eye of a kind human".

The training it publishes

One sentence on the front page sets out the scope precisely, and it is the reason this is listed as a trainer: "We also offer training for hunting dogs (off-leash) on property and obedience and service training off property." Separately the site says the camp "offers training, therapy, and socialization to support your pet overcoming behavioral issues, to become well-behaved, gentle companion", and describes dogs learning to socialize within a pack.

Who runs it

The camp directors are named as Blaze and Lucinda, with the site stating 35-plus years caring for animals. The approach described is individualized around each dog's temperament and needs, with a mix of rest and exercise.

How to start

The entry point is a complimentary 20-minute meet and greet, booked through the site's own form. Separate pages cover the camp experience, the scheduling app, and FAQs.
