It seems like a huge % of dog owners, don't seem to give whit or have any appreciation for dog/pack dynamics.

Without exception, at every dog park I've been at, 1000's of times ... if other dogs see a new dog coming through the gate, they all run over to "greet" the new dog. A new dog is invading their space and they have to bark in acknowledgement and do some sniffing.

It's not much different, than everyone at a party, turning around to see who the new arrival is, as they come through the door. Unfortunately, dogs aren't capable of saying: "Hi, thanks for stopping by". Dogs bark and sniff.
