The claim that "the only time someone protests a dog on the small side is if they are over aggressive." is unsupportable on its face since Kahuna goes to the park "almost every afternoon." Were you there when my daughter was there? Did you see the incident? Or, as Mrs. Robinson asked, are YOU Grumpy? If there is ever a time when you aren't there then you cannot credibly assert that anything only happens under certain conditions.

And, what is the basis for your inane statement that "Those who do not regularly frequent this facility have no use in posting here"? I occasionally visit the dog park, just to see the variety of dogs that are there. But, even if I never visited the park, the report of my daughter regarding her experience is a reliable report and I do "have use" (sic) posting here.

I assure you that our Beagle will be back.

I really don't want this to get ugly, but it seems to be going that road. I don't discount your daughters account, but my experience has been nothing but positive when visiting the dog park. I've made many friends and know most the dogs who are there almost everyday.

The only issue anyone seems to have is if a new dog is overly aggressive with smaller dogs, on that case we suggest that the owner might consider moving to the larger dog area.

Sometimes when a new dog is introduced into an exsisting group, they can want to establish their territory in that group. This is just nature and we, as dog owners, need to recognize this. You, your daughter and the beagle are always welcome and I look forward to meeting them. Our Darcy loves to run and play.
