We go to our Dog Park a lot, the rule regarding playing is really at the owners discretion if one dog is being rougher than lets say your dog wants to play you can either direct your dog to another area or distract the "rowdy" dog.

Treats are discourage at our park, there have been far to many scuffles with dogs over treats.

Water is available but I always take my own bowl and use their faucet.

Picking up poop is required and trust me at our park if you don't someone will say something to you.

We also have a problem with large dog owners bring their big dogs into the small dog park. They are always asked to leave and arguments such as "he loves little dogs" don't fly -we usually will explain that even if you dog loves little dogs they play a little rough and the little guys can get hurt.

One suggestion I have is if your park is busy put a bright color harness on your dog, they makes them easy to spot - Sophie Kate wears a bright pink harness at the park.
