Dog parks can be deceiving. Cute puppies playing together right?
Why we don’t like them even though they seem harmless:
❌ They are a breeding ground for disease 🦠
❌ Dogs there often display toxic and dangerous behavior with pet parents that don’t know how to handle said behavior.
⭐️ Socialization is all about quality and not quantity. We want dogs to have great experiences with emotionally stable dogs that love other dogs.
❌ When Ralph was a puppy I took him to the dog park daily. He would start out super anxious and then calm down. Then one day another dog went after him and his anxiety amplified even more until he started then going after other dogs himself.
