GDA39: Dog Parks – The Good, The Bad, and The Butt Sniffing - a podcast by Fernando Camacho

Dog parks are ideal places where you can play with your dog unleashed and have fun playing and socializing with other dogs. Well, that’s what most people think of dog parks. The truth is there are things you need to know and do or not do when bringing your dog to dog parks. Also, such places may not be ideal for all dogs as every dog is unique and that includes behavior, temperament and needs. 

In this episode, I also covered some tips on how your dog can be safe in dog parks and things you should not do when bringing your pet to such places. Listen in and learn what you need to know about dog parks and in bringing your dog to one.
