Dog park. Visited the dog park for our first time today, we have an almost 6 month old golden retriever puppy. With him just about 40 pounds I decided to check out the large dog area first. Right as we entered we were greeted with several dogs, two in particular that we had problems with (The second dog and the owner recognized that the behavior was a little to rough even though it wasn’t aggressive and came and leased their dog to redirect). These two dogs were playing very rough, not aggressive but something that myself and my dog were both uncomfortable with. My dog was being submissive, crouching down to the ground, tail between the legs and backing up. To try to break up and get some space, I stepped in between the one dog and my dog to get my dog back on the leash. While doing so I put my leg up and the other dog ran into me (The dog was in motion heading towards my dog and was very thick, strong built dog). The owner proceeds to approach me very angrily accusing me of kicking his dog. I left and entered the small dog area where there was another golden retriever and a few xsmall dogs. Everyone was welcoming in that area and the dogs played well together.

The dog park itself is a nice area despite the surrounding area. Both play areas were clean, had some shady spots and a couple obstacles that the dogs can play in and around.

We ended up taking a walk by the river and getting a nice picture.
