Be careful with those retractable dog leashes and golf carts. There have been several tragic accidents like this that I know of in this area. If you are adept at using this kind of leash then you should be OK. But a slip up and the dog could get hit.

I second Barefoot's recommendation of Doggie Doo Run Run. They do not allow dogs that are aggressive though or over protective of their masters. There have been a few problems like this too at DDRR. You just have to observe how the dogs interact with other dogs as well as with people.

I run across dogs that seem bad with other dogs on walks but the owners have always known to keep their dog away from other dogs if it is a dog with some kind of social problem.

Also for dogs on Squares. Some dogs do really well with all the commotion, others not well at all. Take a test run at a time when the Squares are not so busy to see how your dog handles the noise, people, kids, golf carts, cars, etc. on the Squares. A short leash is also a very good idea too on the Squares.
