    Why do people come to the DOG PARK if they don't want any other dogs to play with their dogs??? We were there yesterday and a woman was getting all agitated because Simba was trying to engage her dog in play, saying, "Oh don't do that, he's an old dog!! " and trying to shoo Simba away. I've come across others who spend the whole time making everyone else tense because they don't want our dogs to come near theirs. I don't get why they are there!!!

    Rant finished.

    I think the clue is in the words 'Dog Park'. Golly, some people! ::)

    I've never been to a dog park, but I imagine that you'd only want to take dogs that are happy with just about any other dog!

    You rant on behalf of us all, Lisa!!!!

    The other beef is with people who bring dogs who cannot tolerate other dogs and who start fights ::) Why, why, why?

    I know,I know Lisa and bearing in mind what your weather is like at the moment you would think only dog owners that are really committed to doggie play time would be wrapping up to go out....people can be curious ;D x

    Anyone would think you lived in a massively over-populated and built-up country where the dog park was the only space available!! Rant away... except it isn't a rant, it's perfectly justifiable frustration!
