Golden Grove Fenced Dog Park — Attraction in Adelaide

I've only been here a handful of times and thoroughly thought it was a great park. most of the dogs here were friendly and had no issues playing with other dogs. however yesterday my 6m puppy was attacked by a dog (who we've seen every time we've been there) and it was awful. the response of the owner was piss poor and all she said was he'd been attacked himself and was a bit skittish. she lacked any care or empathy for my dog and its frustrating that she knew her dog isn't so good with others yet brings him to the off leash park? put a muzzle on him? better yet dont bring him. her dog offered no warning growls, or snaps or hackles up or anything. they were running along the fence line together when in a split second her dog latched on to my dogs face. her dog is dangerous and she not be allowed around other pets.
