Countering Objections to Dog Parks Resistance may come from non-dog owners, dog park neighbors, or council members, and it is always important to listen to any objections. If they are well founded, solutions can be sought, and if they are based on misinformation, calm discussions can educate. What about dog fights? Most dogs are not aggressive when outside their own territory. Since dogs with a history of dangerous behavior are not permitted in the dog park, and owners are present to remove their dog at the first sign of dangerous behavior, fighting will be minimized. A National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) study showed no incidents of dog fights in dog parks resulting in libel suits.
