At the dog park here, we're allowed to let the dogs run without leashs, seeing its fenced in. The rules say if you dog is not friendly with other dogs, it cannot be in without a muzzle or something to keep all the dogs safe. Anyway, theres people that come all the time, one of them was a smaller breed, I don't remember what kind, maybe a boston terrior?? Anyway, he's fine playing with all the bigger dogs, but when he meets with a new puppy, he gets aggressive, and attacks the pups. He usually ends up putting his dog on a muzzle, but then takes it off later, and he repeats it. If I took a pup in there and he did it to me, then I'd either leave when he's there or ask him to put the dog on the muzzle..I don't know how safe it is for the pups, I know it scares the hell out of them, you can hear them squiel...

When I 1st got Josie, she was around 6 wks, and I took her to the normal park where dogs are expected to be on lead, but don't have to be. This huge GS ran over at us at full speed, stopped a little then jumped on Jo. When the dog ran over, Jo had her little tail between her legs and seemed kinda scared or something. The guy said he was friendly, but he was still jumping all over her, and she let out a few cries. I was annoyed at the guy for not calling off his dog as soon as he did it, I probably would have pushed the GS away and grabbed Jo if they guy did not..I don't think the GS ment to do any harm, but he was to rough for her and I was scared she'd be hurt.

When she got a little older, I use to let her off her leash to play with the other dogs, till one day, her dog friend run up by a road, and of course, Jo followed. I was freaking out and yelling for her to come here, while running up to her (mind you, the owner of the other dog was like, Oh, my dog is running by the road, oh well) So, I probably looked like some kind of freak, but I was just worried. This kinda old man seemed to understand that, and took a ball and started to wave it around and threw it away from the road, which worked. I was really greatful for that guy :]
Anything like that happen to any ofyou too?? Its horrible..but I never let her loose down there now, she usually listens, but you never know
