[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I take our dog to local parks and it is the best part of her day when she gets to run crazily around with other neighborhood dogs. I also love meeting other dog owners. It has been great for my sense of community and belonging. But invariably there are owners who walk up, look over at my dog/other dogs and then take their dog alone to a separate area- usually an empty court- to toss a ball by themselves. These don’t look like aggressive dogs (lately I’ve seen medium sized poodles) so I don’t quite understand why the owners do this instead of encouraging socialization.

Anyone want to explain (in a non nasty way)? [/quote]

This is asking why some humans don't like to go to nightclubs.  Also, how would you know a dog is reactive just by looking at them?  I don't say aggressive because I think that is unfair.  Not every dog likes going to 'play' with strange dogs. Most dog owners don't properly train their dogs and there are a lot of dog fights.  It just isn't worth it.  My dog plays with dogs we know and when we board him. Otherwise I am like the person you see.  [/quote]
