I know that George LOVES going to the park. We live in an apt. with no yard, so that is the only chance he has to run around outside off-leash. (besides going to my families' farm, but that is only about 2x a month or so)
We've always kept a very close eye on him and I tend to walk up and down the beach following him so that I'm close in case anything were to happen.
He likes to wrestle and rough house cause he isn't too fast.
There are a few dogs that could do with more socialization before being off leash, that is for sure.
I've also seen people socializing their dogs -on leash- at the dog park as well.
All in all, I think dog parks are good things, especially for those of us who live in a house or apt. with little to no yard.
