More Dog Park For A Day Information
Dog Park For A Day continues to be a great fundraiser and a fun learning experience for everyone involved. Some of our board members attended a training class with Nick Woolls in order to help us better understand dog behavior. Nick is working on a handout with tips on how to have the best experience at the Dog Park. We will pass it along when it is finished. In the mean time, here are some helpful tips from Pedigree.
Dos:
Let your dog be a dog. If you don’t know the difference between rough play and real dog fighting, spend some time observing dogs playing in a group.
Keep your dog on-leash until safely inside the park. Remove your dog’s leash after you enter the off-leash area. Mixing on-leash and off-leash dogs can cause stress in the leashed dogs, which may lead to aggressive behavior.
Supervise your dog’s play. Be ready to interrupt inappropriate play whether your dog is the instigator or victim.
Don’ts:
Bring your dog if he has been sick in the last 48 hours.
Discipline another person’s dog. If you find another dog’s behavior unacceptable, take your own dog out of the park rather than correcting someone else’s dog.
Feed other dogs. You don’t know if their owners allow it, and your treats might upset another dogs diet or digestion. It may also trigger a jealous reaction between dogs.
One final guideline worth following: don’t wear white or bring a freshly groomed dog, neither of you will come home unmarked!
