These parks have varying features, although they typically offer a 4' to 6' fence, separate double-gated entry and exit points, adequate drainage, benches for humans, shade for hot days, parking close to the site, water, Dog parks are one of those places that seem like a brilliant idea and would be, if we all knew how to behave. but i think we don't.
1. Not picking up after a dog.
Let's start with something as simple as sanitation. First of all, these are just good ways to pick up after your dog does his business. It's disgusting to go to a park that has shit everywhere and worse, it's really bad for your dog. There are many diseases and parasites that live in the feces of dogs and other dogs can contract when they touch, squirm or eat. Not nice at all points. Let's avoid the spread of the disease and follow this simple rule of etiquette. You also earn bonus points to bring extra bags to other owners.
2. Not exercising a dog before taking her into a park.
This may seem contradictory. I mean, we're going to the dogs for exercise for our dogs, are not we? False Canine parks are a supplement to the daily activities of the dog, and the source of physical activity or socialization of the soul. A dog that has been indoors or alone for hours has accumulated energy, and bringing it to a stimulating environment, like a park with other dogs, is like holding a game right next to a stick of dynamite and jump on the fire. Your dog may well mean, but being too much with the dog does not like it. Now, your dog may be good, but be so excited to be around that other dogs start chasing her and become so. Do you see where I'm going with that? Well trained dogs are dogs practiced. So, take this zoom out of your dog before you bring her into a park situation.
3. Bringing dogs with rude greeting skills.
That's the way for dogs too. Introductions are important and make a difference in how the dogs come together. To allow your dog to charge a dog who has just entered the park is rude. The new dog can be on the verge, examine his environment and his level of safety so your dog runs at full speed for this new dog, asking for an instant match. To allow the dog to ride another dog in a dominance display is also rude. Keeping your dog to continue to sniff another dog that is clearly uncomfortable to sniff, is again, rude. It is up to us people to help the dogs make polite presentations to each other. Knowing what is polite in the dog's world, and what is not, and knowing how the dog is going to be a polite dog, is important for having positive experiences in a dog park.
