I've been to about 5 dog parks and I generally hate them. I would stop going all together, but sometimes merlot really needs to get out and be around other dogs.
The experiences that I have had there are fights between people, fights between dogs, big dogs on the little side, snobby dog owners and ones who just don't care. Our most horrific experience was being attacked by a pitbull. Both me and my dog were rolling around on the ground with it trying to get it off my dog and the owner just stood by. After it was all over and I got his info, all he could say was "Doesn't this kinda thingf happen all the time here".
Not to mention how dirty some of them are. I bathe Merlot everytime we leave one of those places. Even if they appear clean, how clean can they be? |
