Once he exerts his energy, he'll find a spot to sunbathe and just lay there. He doesn't interact with the other dogs though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dog-enjoy-the-dog-park#post-1151425 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 15:41:47 +0000 StrawberryBee 1151425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we had a similar experience to you. My one dog stuck like glue to my side while the other managed to get separated, ran like heck from all the other dogs, which of course initiated a huge chase. The pack ran her down and she started screaming bloody murder as she was engulfed by a pile of dogs.</p> <p>We don't go to the dog park any more, either ;).</p> <p>PS instead we do agility, so we can have one on one fun that's much more their speed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dog-enjoy-the-dog-park#post-1151416 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 15:35:40 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1151416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our big one lovessssss it! Our little one likes it if no one else is there ;) Big dogs scare her, but she is only about 4-5lbs so I don't blame her! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dog-enjoy-the-dog-park#post-1151412 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 15:29:56 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 1151412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't take ours to the dog park because her recall is crap and she would never come back. Lol. There aren't any fenced in dog parks here. We do take her every other week to a doggy day care up the street and she loves it! It's well worth the money! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dog-enjoy-the-dog-park#post-1151360 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 15:06:56 +0000 LovelyPlum 1151360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dog ADORES the dog park. Don't say the words "dog park" around her unless you mean it...as in, walk straight to the car and go there. I think she'd rather you just teleport her there, actually. We can't drive down the dog park *street* without her freaking the heck out. </p> <p>But we don't go in the fall...waaaaaayyy too much mud! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dog-enjoy-the-dog-park#post-1151321 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 14:47:27 +0000 MediaNaranja 1151321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The first time I ever took my dogs to a dog park it was such a fail. One was so scared he stayed at my side the whole time. He LOVES to play fetch but wouldn't even get the ball, he was so scared! The other dog managed to find a hole in the fence big enough to squeeze through and started running towards a busy street!</p> <p>I don't take them to the dog park anymore, haha. I wish they liked it though, it seems like so much fun!!! </p>
