The Dog Park - Can We Do It?

[3greytjoys]

We've seen too many dangerous interactions in dog parks so we prefer Greyhound only play dates where all Greyhounds are muzzled, and inside a fenced enclosure. Another alternative good option: Dogs of similar size and play style with all dogs muzzled inside fenced area.

 

(BTW, we would steer clear of using a squeaky toy in a dog park, especially if there are any other Greyhounds or hunting breeds. Some squeaky toys sound like a "lure" (an animal in distress) which can be a "calling" for dogs to attack the dog who is squeaking. If one dog is reactive, a dog pack attack can happen in an instant (long before humans could try to stop it). Many dog breeds can become possessive of toys and/or food which can lead to scuffles in public dog parks.)
