Pets Taking Your Doggy To The Dog Park

tr> If you are looking into taking your doggy to the local dog park then please check it out first before bringing your pet.

There is a rise in the forming of dog parks. There are now more households with dogs than with kids! And especially if you live in an apartment or house with little lawn space, a dog park will allow your dog some great exercise and a place to socialize for both you and your pet. You should have a park that is clean, enclosed, no-leash environment.

But you must follow the rules. First of all you cannot and should not bring your dog if they have not been neutered or spayed. And be honest, if your dog is on the aggressive side then you would not want to risk your dog hurting someones fur baby. Most parks should have two sections. One section is for larger dogs, and the other for smaller dogs. This is for safety and you should be mindful to place your dog in the correct section. Once there you should also watch that your dog is “fitting in” and just generally always watch your dog as you would if it was a small child. And you want to observe that the other dog owners are paying attention to their dog too. You should try first attending the park when there are just a few other dogs about to see how your dog fits in. Chances are the same dogs will go there on a routine time or day too.

Hopefully your park is also a decent size and has plenty of shady areas and benches. The dogs should have easy access to water and there should be “pooper scoopers” and trash bins available. Access to the park is for dog owners only and hopefully friendly dog owners too. If you and your dog do not want to be sociable, then find another outlet for your dog’s exercise routine.

The most important thing is that you want your dog to be able to play freely and safely. You can receive a ticket for failing to obey the sign that says “larger dogs” or “smaller dogs” when deciding which section to have your pet go. Your dog may also be checked for a current dog license should anything go wrong. You should also consider talking to your veterinarian to see if they have treated or received any reports of dog attacks at your particular dog park.

And remember, your pet naps and sleeps some fourteen hours a day! So to make sure your doggy also has a great bed to sleep and nap on, look through our collection of plush doggy beds and crate pads that come in a variety of colors too. Remember you may also need a second pad. Keep a pad in the room of your house that doesn’t have the crate in it so your dog can nap comfortably while you take the couch.
