I had issues at our dog park, but with an owner.
Here is the story, I was alone in the large dog park. I saw this fellow come up with an old german shepard. I told him my 3 dogs didn't play well with others, and I would take them out I was at the gate, leashing them up, when I was talking to them.
He said," No your dogs won't bother mine". I said, yes, they might try to bite your dog, so please just wait, and I will leave.
He said, "well, if your dogs are so dangerous, why did you bring them to the park"?
I said, No one was here and why are you being so mean?"
He said, not being mean, just asking a question…all in a very ugly tone.
Gee, I was trying to make sure all dogs had a fun day and no one had any issues.
So, this guy was just a tool! IMO...am I wrong to use an empty dog park and take my dogs out when someone comes?
