We have no dog parks where I live and I always envied people who wrote in about going to a dog park. I would love to have this for socializing my dogs and just plain having fun with other owners.
But I've read a few post much the same as yours and maybe I'm not missing out on anything. I always thought the parks were supervised for just such issues, guess I was mistaken.
This would be enough to ruin a great day and I'm thinking of the harm it could cause another well behaved dog if there was an attack. Dogs can be so impressionable at certain stages of their lives.
Getting the owner's licence for ID would certainly be worth it. maybe you could ask if someone knows this person and get his name. Or would the SPCA be willing to send a worker over as a witness and also to speak to the owner?
I was wondering who is responsible in case of a dog fight since all dogs are off leash? How would it be handled? I'm not the greatest fan of pitts but this would be enough to frighten me right out of the park.
Makes you wonder why the owner would be so irresponsible with all the talk and bans re the pitts. I would think pitt owners would do their best to impress people with the friendliness of their dogs???
Sorry your day was ruined, but don't let it get to you, maybe you won't run into this person again (with luck.)
