I was nervous about dog parks because of all the horror stories I've seen and heard but my pup LOVES playing with other dogs. So we went and observed from outside of the park (through the fence.) I didn't feel comfortable yet and there was a ton of people there (Friday evening end of summer. ) So after more obedience training and confidence in my end, we tried it. We loved it. Most people seem very responsible and keep an eye on their dogs. There were a few who you could tell visit a lot, felt like owners were too relaxed and didn't supervise their dogs and their dogs seemed to have so much ownership of the park that were a bit territorial. But that was mild and few and far between. I have had only good experiences there. They also have a small dog park that is separate from the other side. There was poop bags in case you forgot your own and shared water dishes and coolers of water to refill if needed. Not too shabby.
