[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you don't think there are helicopter dog owners, then you have never been to a dog park.[/quote]

Oh so you would be the ass who lets your dog bite my dogs face and then when I pull him off say "he's playing" right?  And then think I am a helicopter dog "parent."  Nope sorry I am respectful of others dogs and will not let my dog be attacked because some lazy ass wont watch their agressive dog.[/quote]

Um, no. I'm the normal dog owner who has called animal control on aggressive dogs at the dog park (like the bahvior you described). But I have also rolled my eyes at the people who bring their dog to the dog park and spend the entire time carrying them around or following them around and not letting them interact with any other dog or freaking out when another dog sniffs their dogs butt.[/quote]

PP here.  Ok you are correct and yes based on your post are a normal dog owner.  I apologize![/quote]

No worries. We've experienced some pretty awful owners at dog parks too. :)[/quote]

I'm not the PP.  My experience has been that the owners with aggressive dogs at dog parks (the worst offenders) aren't necessarily people who neglect their dogs.  They're usually the ones who just won't face reality that they have an aggressive dog.  Aside from the dog park, I've encountered some Pit Bull rescue people like that.  They're (the owners) not dangerous because they are neglectful.  They're dangerous because they're not honest with themselves about their dogs.  And they have this deluded notion that being honest about the potential for a dog to be aggressive is someone equated with giving up on the dog or calling it a bad dog.  There are plenty of dogs that aren't bad dogs, but they are too unpredictable around other dogs and just shouldn't be brought to a dog park, because the whole concept of a dog park is that people should feel free to let their dogs run around without hovering over them.
