What are the 3 strikes at Dogtopia? ›

Try a “three-strike you're out” concept—if your dog nips, you say no, and they do it two more times, calmly get up and walk away from the situation. This disruption will distract them from what they were doing. Another tip is to take treats or a few bits of kibble and sprinkle them on the ground.

A safe, supervised facility

Dogtopia is a great way to maintain your dog's exercise schedule regardless of sun, rain, or even snow!
