[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a small dog, and years ago I took him to a dog park and he became the prey. I was petrified that he would be torn apart. As he was running to the park with a large group of large dogs, chasing him not one of the owners stepped in. This was definitely not play, it was definitely dogs chasing a rabbit kind of situation.  Fortunately, I was able to call him to me and he ran directly to me so I was able to pick him up and protect him from all those dogs. And the way those dogs are jumping at me scared me. And again the owners did nothing. They just smiled as if it was a big game.

My conclusion was that the dog owners who take their dogs to the dog park are clueless and do not understand dog behavior.

I blame myself for thinking that it was a good idea to socialize my dog at a dog park. I learned the hard way that not all dogs belong in a dog park. Certainly not my dog  #NeverAgain.[/quote]

Most people at dog parks separate their dogs by size. But it doesn’t seem like your dog was actually ‘prey’ for those dogs. They could have caught her if they wanted to, no? [/quote]
