Imagine Picking Up a Completely Different Dog This Summer
Dog Summer Camp is more than a place for your dog to stay while you’re busy this summer—it’s an unforgettable training experience that builds confidence, improves obedience, and creates lifelong habits.
It’s the middle of July.
The kids are out of school. Friends are coming over for BBQs. You’re planning weekends at the lake, evenings on the patio, and maybe even a family vacation.
Then your dog bolts out the front door.
They drag you down the sidewalk on every walk.
They bark at every visitor.
Jump on Grandma.
Steal burgers off the grill.
Ignore you the second something more exciting comes along.
Sound familiar?
You love your dog—but sometimes it feels like you’re spending more time managing bad behavior than actually enjoying life together.
That’s exactly why we created Dog Summer Camp at Off Leash K9 Training.
Available in Rochester and Syracuse, our Summer Camp transforms energetic, distracted, and stubborn dogs into calm, confident companions that can enjoy every summer adventure right beside you.
Summer Break for the Kids. Boot Camp for the Pup. 🐾
While your family enjoys summer vacation, your dog heads off on an adventure of their own.
This isn’t traditional boarding.
It’s not a kennel.
And it’s definitely not a place where dogs sit inside a run all day waiting for someone to walk by.
Your dog lives full-time in the home of one of our certified Off Leash K9 trainers, where every single day is packed with structured learning, enrichment, confidence building, and real-world experiences.
By the time camp is over, you’ll wonder if someone switched dogs.
What Makes Dog Summer Camp Different?
Most boarding facilities simply care for your dog until you return.
We believe your dog should come home better than when they arrived.
Every day is carefully designed to build confidence, reinforce obedience, and teach your dog how to make better decisions—even when distractions are everywhere.
Every Day Is an Adventure
📸 Camp Postcards
We know you’ll miss your best friend.
That’s why we send daily photo and video updates straight to your phone so you can celebrate every milestone—from the first successful recall to their latest field trip.
Watching your dog’s transformation is almost as exciting as seeing it in person.
🌳 Real-World Field Trips
Dogs don’t live inside training rooms.
So we don’t train that way.
Throughout camp, your dog visits parks, sidewalks, shopping areas, and other public places around Rochester and Syracuse where they’ll practice obedience around real-life distractions.
Because when your dog can listen in the real world, life becomes a whole lot easier.
🧠 Mental Enrichment
Physical exercise is only part of the equation.
Dogs also need to think.
Campers enjoy scent work, problem-solving games, confidence-building exercises, and enrichment activities that tire out their brains—not just their bodies.
A mentally fulfilled dog is often a calmer, happier dog.
🍦 Pup-sicles & Summer Fun
Yes…camp should actually be fun.
Between training sessions, campers enjoy frozen treats, plenty of play, and a heat-smart schedule that keeps them comfortable while making the most of every summer day.
🎓 Graduation Day
Graduation isn’t just for your dog.
It’s for you, too.
You’ll meet with your trainer for a hands-on transfer session where you’ll learn exactly how to maintain your dog’s new skills at home.
Then it’s time for the graduation photo—the moment every family waits for.

Imagine Your Next Family Outing…
Imagine walking through the park with a dog that stays beside you.
Friends come over—and instead of jumping all over them, your dog calmly waits on Place.
You call their name at the beach…
…and they actually come.
