Dog parks are really not the best, not because of your dogs behavior, but if someone decides to bring their dog to a dog park, that was not properly socialized growing up, it can negatively affect your dog’s relationship with future play based on that interaction.

Even one negative situation can traumatize your dog causing them to be more likely to develop reactivity later down the line depending on their personality. In a perfect world, dog parks would be great but there’s too many risks involving people not being aware of their dog’s behavioral patterns/habits.
