Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Do you do boarding and training services together? As in, I leave my dog with you for a set amount of time and you train him.
We do not offer board and train services together at this time for various reasons. Board and train is good to get dogs started on basic obedience or any behavior modification. It gets more complicated when we add in anything like fear and anxiety. Feel free to reach out to us for any further questions.

Do you separate the small dogs from the big dogs?
Yes, we separate all dogs by temperament, play style and size. We introduce dogs slowly and make sure we are 110% sure they are all interacting in a healthy way! All dog interactions are 100% supervised at all times. Any questions feel free to reach out. Vinny

My pooch Mocha had a wonderful experience her first time away from us with Vinny and his team last summer. She was well cared giving us great piece of mind. We've scheduled another stay at Camp Ruff Ruff this spring. I highly recommend Vinny and his staff.
I can't say enough good things about Vinny. We boarded our then 1 year old Golden retriever with him last summer for two weeks and he took care of her as if she was his own.

I can't say enough good things about Vinny. We boarded our then 1 year old Golden retriever with him last summer for two weeks and he took care of her as if she was his own. He went out of his way to keep us fully informed on how she was doing and gave us peace of mind knowing our little girl was in good and loving hands. He also went above and beyond to patiently explain to us some of her negative behaviors. He came his family are the best.
I've had a wonderful experience with Vinny and Camp Ruff Ruff.

I've had a wonderful experience with Vinny and Camp Ruff Ruff. He was great at explaining my dog's behavioral quirks to me and helping me figure out how to work on things, plus my dog loved him immediately. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with him when I had to take a trip and Vinny and his wife were kind enough to send me pictures and updates so I could see how he was doing. I will definitely be using them again in the future!

Vinny has taken great care of my two English bull terriers while I have been stationed in NY for three years. Bullet is a 9 year old who suffered from abuse before I rescued him. Echo is a 4 year old who is deaf and incredibly high energy. Vinny has had such a calming effect on Echo. I can almost see how Echo thinks before jumping on people, stops when I signal to him, trying to decipher what I want him to do, and trying hard to be obedient. I know that this is all because of Vinny's interaction with him. It makes me work harder at communicating with both pups so they understand.I am a Coast Guard officer and constantly have to travel for work (with very short notice) out of state. Vinny was always incredibly flexible with accommodating my pups. They absolutely loved being campers at Camp Ruff Ruff and hanging with the other campers as well as Mickey.I always had boarding for my dogs at Veterinary Hospitals because my dogs demand such attention, they are very high energy, they have special diet needs, one is deaf and one is an escape artists who runs away the second he senses freedom. Once I saw Vinny's interactions with them and understood how knowledgeable he was, I trusted him 100%. I trust no one else with my dogs. Just Vinny and his crew!They always treated my pups like family! Now we are getting transferred to Portland, OR and the boys will miss their best buddy for sure. I know I will never find anyone who will care for them the same way when I'm away.Honest and trustworthy: Vinny was kind enough to walk my dogs as well. He had a key to my place and I never had an ounce of worry at all about my place, my belongings or my dogs. On the contrary, he always made me aware of any issues. One example was when my carbon monoxide detectors where alarming.No rating scale has enough stars to convey how much Vinny cares about animals. He took care of my pups thru Bullet's ear surgery and Echo's constant knee troubles. Always updating me on how they were doing while I was away. Vinny and his crew are true professionals. They are honest folks who love animals and do this out of love for dogs, not money.I will continue to recommend Vinny to all my Coast Guard friends who get stationed in the area. Camp Ruff Ruff is the best!
