Are there rules or etiquette I should follow at the dog park?

Absolutely yes! Some rules/etiquette that you and everyone should be following at the dog park include;

• Don’t let your dog crowd the entrance/exit gate (being crowded is extremely hard for the dog entering and can set them up for a bad experience right at the start).
• Leave your mobile phone in the car
• Don’t let your dog fence run
• Pick up after your dog
• Don’t let dogs sort it out
• Don’t excuse inappropriate or rude behaviour as friendliness or ‘he just wants to play’. This may include mounting, harassing, continually chasing or getting into the face of another dog.
