If this were my dog, I would work on focus exercises at home prior to going to a dog park. Clicker training is great for practicing focus exercises.

Once I had the focus exercises down at home - I would the find a friend that has a dog and ask them to walk with me. I would again practice the focus exercises prior to the walk and during the walk. The goal being you want your dogs attention on you..not the other dog.

From there I would walk through the dog park and practice the focus exercises. Once he had all this down, then I would attempt to let him play.
