I don't go to the dogpart often at all, but I have been there a few times. It's big and nice, my only problem is they have a 'small dog only' area, but no 'big dog only' area. But when I have been there, and when I walked around there, it seemed to be pretty nice. The way they have it set up is where most people walk along the paths around the outside and some play ball on the inside, so most people stay with their dogs.
I guess I'm lucky as this is in the park where I use to go to (on-leash) alot anyways. There are a lot of dogs, and some trails in the woods as well as a lake to walk around. It's fairly pretty. But we do hav leash-laws at these people parks. I like the leash laws, there are far too many idiot owners here that don't train their dogs or have dogs that are agressive that let them off leash anyways, I can't imagine if we didn't have leash laws!! There are also those dogs that are so friendly the owners think it's ok to let them go up to anything. But it is a problem. Just because there dog is friendly doesn't mean the other person wants their dog near them.
