I suggest finding another dog park. I've been taking dogs to dog parks since 1995 and never picked up a flea, parasite, or injury. I have picked up a lot of friends. My dogs are bigger, get along with everyone. If an aggressive dog comes in (which is extremely rare in our Wildwood Bark Park), they are either sequestered by their owner into an empty smaller park within the park, or one time we left. Most of the people there are Villagers, but many from the Wildwood area too; all of them are good owners and nice people. We do other stuff together (dinners, celebrations, concerts, etc.) You just have to find the right place for you and your dog.
