Dog
fights.
To avoid a dog fight, I agree that I can control and command my dog
while in the park and I will
keep
watch on my dog(s) and be within command distance the entire time
while in the park to insure it is not exhibiting aggressive or
antagonistic behavior. I further agree I will do everything possible
to remove my dog from situations uncomfortable to me, my dog, other
dogs or their owners. In the case of a dog fight, we have seen blow
horns and water guns (limited access over the large property of the
park), as well as other non-intrusive diversions break up fighting
dogs. We discourage grabbing a fighting dog by an area near the biting
end of the dog as you could pose yourself the risk of getting bit,
which is why staying near and being attentive to your dog(s) is so
important.
-
I agree that
I will not bring my dog(s) to park if they are in
sick
with any condition or with any external condition, such as
