• What breeds or sizes of dogs do you accommodate?

  Dogtopia of Woodmen Rd in Colorado Springs welcomes dogs of all breeds and sizes, from small companion dogs to large, energetic breeds. Our focus is on each dog's individual temperament, social behavior, and compatibility with our supervised, open-play daycare environment rather than breed or size alone.

  Before joining daycare or overnight boarding, every dog completes a complimentary Meet & Greet temperament evaluation. During this evaluation, our trained team gets to know your dog's personality, play style, energy level, and comfort around other dogs to determine whether group play is the right fit. Our facility features three spacious, climate-controlled indoor playrooms, where dogs are grouped by size, temperament, and play style. This allows smaller or more reserved pups to socialize comfortably while giving larger, more energetic dogs the opportunity to play with compatible companions. Whether you have a tiny Chihuahua, a playful Golden Retriever, or a large working breed, our goal is to provide a safe, enriching, and positive social experience tailored to your dog's needs.

Our daily schedule also includes a dedicated midday rest period, giving older pups an opportunity to relax and recharge. During your dog's complimentary Meet & Greet temperament evaluation, our trained team will assess their mobility, energy level, social preferences, and individual needs to determine whether our supervised, open-play daycare environment is the right fit. Whether your senior dog enjoys gentle socialization, companionship, or simply a comfortable place to spend the day, our goal is to help dogs of all ages stay happy, active, and socially engaged.

• What happens during a Meet & Greet evaluation?

  At Dogtopia of Woodmen Rd in Colorado Springs, every dog begins their daycare or boarding experience with a complimentary Meet & Greet temperament evaluation. This important first step helps us get to know your pup and determine whether our supervised, open-play environment is the right fit for their personality and needs.

  During the Meet & Greet, our trained team will talk with you about your dog's personality, daily routine, energy level, socialization history, and comfort around other dogs and people. We'll also discuss any special care requirements, behavioral concerns, or goals you have for your dog's daycare experience. Next, our team carefully evaluates your dog's temperament, body language, and interactions with other dogs in a controlled environment. This allows us to assess their comfort with group play and determine the most appropriate placement within our three supervised playrooms, where dogs are grouped by size, temperament, and play style. To participate in daycare or overnight boarding, dogs must successfully complete the Meet & Greet, be current on required Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccinations, and be spayed or neutered by 7 months of age. A successful Meet & Greet qualifies your dog for daycare and boarding, but enrollment in a weekly or monthly wellness plan is optional. Our wellness plans offer discounted daycare rates, priority reservations, preferred boarding pricing, and 10% off spa services. Whether you're introducing a puppy to dog daycare or looking for a safe, engaging social environment for your adult dog, our complimentary Meet & Greet helps ensure every pup gets started on the right paw.
