The dog park is too cultish. People forget that they are there for their dog but the conversation so it goes... it is just them implicitly talking about having a better life than you. I went for the convenience but to be honest, I had some intuition that something was not right because I was pushing away with my un-conscience; Every time I would go, I felt like it was a dread going the next time and the next and I thought I was just being lazy for just putting doggy TV on whilst I leave the house and that would be enough to socialize my dog.
I admit, I was not thinking about my dog choosing the park. 9-5 job and again the park is less than 1500 meters from my flat. I mean there are nice people, very genuine people but then there are those people that just look down at you and see your dog and just hate your dog for whatever the reason. The park made me so insecure about my dog that I started to Google things like a person with an irrational mindset, "how to tell if people hate your dog?" or "How to tell if people are jealous of your dog?" In other words, "I'm crazy." But the other crazy thing is..there were no resources to tell if someone is jealous of your dog. I even got crafty and used "envious." Still nothing.
For the dogs they are kinda having fun but they don't seem to be having fun. The park is literally a rectangle. It's like seeing Mona Lisa before actually going to the Louvre and then going to the Louvre and seeing Mona Lisa and to be honest, I honestly don't care if I can't use flash, just get me to CDG. There is space but a dog needs proper space and hills and adventure. This park is for someone that simply needs a bigger back yard. I would rather go to a dog park that requires you to neuter your dog.
Speaking of neutering a dog, which is a very hard decision for anyone because at the end of the day you are having someone put your dog to sleep and they're missing something that once made them their lively hood. Anyways, my dog maybe 8 months at the time was apparently trying to hump another dog. Well, this person all Lululemoned out grabs and pushes my dog off their dog and was like whilst I look away for like 10 seconds and all I see is her hands on my dog when I turned back to only glimpse as my dog is removed from decent flight to down, "Your dog keeps trying to hump my dog?" However, she literally was having a life sesh with her bestie about some random noise they were making, almost like she was turning away just to monitor my dog slip up. I don't know, either a good observation or the antipsychotics aren't working anymore. I would never step foot in the dog park again. They hated me and my dog. I'm going to a ratchet dog park next time.
I am there simply to wear my dog out so my dog does not scratch and tear furniture when I get home. I was not there to see your Lululemon logo so we can match eyes at our success. "Brenda Looking forward to Canada Goose Season in Dallas? The North Face is so you know....poor" Fake besties now laugh.. Even though I hate you.
Shout out to the nice people I met: You will never...
Read moreThis used to be a favorite place to go since it was so close. That is until my dog was attacked by another dog. She was playing and accidentally ran into the other dog. That other dog attacked her. The owner was trying to get his dog to release my dog my punching and kicking the dogs. My girl ended up in the hospital with injuries but not before the owner of that dog told me "they're dogs..... It's gonna happen" had I not been standing right there, who knows what would have happened. I was only concerned with my girl so I didn't get his info but he drives a tan pickup truck and would know it if I saw it again. We will never go there again. People should not Force their dogs to stay somewhere they don't want to be. Especially when they are giving you signs. I totally...
Read moreBE WARNED. This park does not require dogs to be neutered OR vaccinated. There are many animals in heat that are there frequently. This causes an overload to some neutered dogs and results in horrible fights. My dog was attacked by an 120 lb German Shepherd that was not fixed. Because of it, My dog and the German Shepherd were quarantined for 10 days because a woman who never should have interfered stuck her hand in the German Shepherds mouth to be "helpful". My dog was holding down the German Shepherd by his ear. She wasn't even the owner. 8 police cars, 16 officers, animal control, and my VACCINATED, NEUTERED dog was kept locked in a cage for 10 days with no walks and had to pee and poop in his cage. It was horrific. Be WARNED. The Meadows Foundation assumes...
