[nagdu] Dog Parks

[Applebutter Hill]

Elise,
Just my opinion, but I stay away from them even though I too have a sighted
husband. People don't clean up after their dogs and don't groom them as
consistently as I do, so I worry about fleas and ticks as well as worms and
I don't like my dog sniffing other dogs' poop. Playing with other dogs who
aren't guide dogs, IMO, should be done when you know the owners well enough
to have a sense of how responsible they are about grooming and how much
control they have over their dogs. Guide dogs tend to be nice and don't fair
well with aggressive dogs.

Hey, everyone.  I have heard yes and no on dog parks from different ones.  I
trust all of you because you have guide dogs.  Do you think they are good
for our guides or should Becky and I stay away?  My husband would go with
us, if you think they are alright.  He is sighted.  Tell me what you think.

Elise and the Beckster
