Blenheim Dog Park - good size and good facilities but some of the most uncivilised, aggressive, feral behaviour in people I have ever witnessed. I have been twice and both times there have been very confronting fights. First between two people over their dogs one very much in the wrong screaming at the other. The next time I was on the receiving end. Based on the supposition that I was not going to removing my leash from the dog before I entered the park I was yelled at by a group of people.

I think they need to instruct their dog to behaved instead. All the dog owner has their right to decide how to introduce their dog to a new enviroment. If anyone like to off leash their dog after entering the park. That is all up to the dog owner. These gangs are way too inappropriate. I saw some other people leave a similar comment below. If you dont want a fight and ruin your weekend, ...
