[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was at Shirlington dog park this AM and it was already getting crazy at 830. I had to get my large 2-year-old dog out of two bad situations (in both cases a pack of dogs swarmed around him and were aggressive). [/quote]

Your dog was attacked by swarms of puppies? If not then it doesn't sound like puppies are the problem.[/quote]

No.  She is saying if the same aggressive dogs that went after her large adult dog had gone after a small puppy, the could have killed it in a instant.  She is looking out for the puppy.  [/quote]

Then the answer is, "everyone else control your damn dogs" not "don't bring your puppy".[/quote]

I challenge you to come to Shirlington Dog Park on a weekend morning and try to do this (asking others to control their dogs). Half the owners aren't even paying attention, others thing it is cute that their dog is humping other dogs, others think that dog that are clearly exhibiting aggressive behavior are "just playing."  There are plenty of free puppy playgroups in the area (Woofs!, PetSmart) that there is zero need to bring an impressionable, not-yet-fully-vaccinated puppy to a busy dog park.[/quote]
