The dog park should be fun, not a free for all.
Carlin Lutzer welcomes Sam Burnett from Sheep River Dog Rescue for a practical and honest conversation about dog park etiquette, dog behaviour, and responsible ownership.
Sam explains why recall is nonnegotiable, how to spot fear based reactivity, why not every growl means aggression, and how owners often create or escalate the problems they blame on dogs.
From leash habits and gate etiquette to muzzles, e-collars, socialization, and even bald eagles near small dogs, this episode is a must listen for anyone who visits the Okotoks dog park and wants to keep it safer, calmer, and more enjoyable for everyone.
Listen for:
2:20 How Do You Know If Your Dog Is Not Ready For The Dog Park?
4:08 Why Is Recall So Important Before Going Off Leash?
9:43 How Can You Tell If A Growl Is Playful Or A Warning?
15:16 When Is A Dog Correction Not The Same As Aggression?
