We live right beside a park and we let Alfie off all the time to chase his ball. There are other dogs there and the owners are pretty responsible, bigger dogs are generally on their leads. Where we play ball there is a good view all round an open area so we can get him back on his lead in plenty of time if we see a dog we don't know or are not sure of approaching.
