I've always taken my Tiffany to the small dog park (I have one across the street from my condo). We've been going since she had all her puppy shots. She's 11 months now and 3.5 lbs. She does great and we've never had an incident. I make sure that I'm near her..watching every dog that comes in the gate. I'm not just sitting on a bench talking to the other dog "parents" or chatting on my cell phone. I guess since I'm a new dog owner, I didn't really think of all the negatives everyone else has mentioned on this thread but I knew to be alert in case something did happen.

She loves going there...and is very outgoing and good with the other dogs and their parents. I've gotten a lot of compliments from the people there saying how well she does. I find it works for me because I'm single and don't have another dog for her to play with. It's a great time for her to greet other people/children and play with other dogs.

Saying that...I will definitely take what is being said into consideration. I didn't know she could catch anything if she has had all her shots. I'm also new to the area but I will look into getting into some play groups.
