If your dog has aggressive tendencies DO NOT bring them to a dog park...The first time my dog went to greet other dogs coming at the gate and this dog who was in the park with her came running over and started to attack her. The owner was quick and got her.. She said "oh its the gate" 2 weeks later I was sitting on the bench and my dog was next to me her dog came over and attacked her again. (She said its the bench) again she leased him up and left.. I should have known better when I saw that dog in the park but I gave him and the owner the benefit of the doubt.. Last night I was brushing my dog and noticed scabs around the spot the dog went after her I had checked at the park I didn't see any blood and she has been acting fine so I never thought twice until I saw the scabs. Needless to say if I see this lady with this dog in the park I will Not go in.. But People Please do not bring aggressive dogs into a dog park!!! Sorry I had to vent!
I don't know what dog parks in TV you folks are going to, but I'm at a dog park in TV, every single day, from Oct - June. There's hardly ever a serious problem and when that arises, it's usually quickly brought under control. I've probably one seen it a couple of times and the dog owners were as much to blame as the dog.

Like everything else in the pet world, it's usually the owners who need to do better.
