How often is the dog park good for dogs?
My 6 months mixture of AB / Lab AMA go to the dog park. The request a couple of times a week. But my husband wants to take it more often, I 'm will personally afraid habits defective. I heard that other dog owners say their dog has become defensive or aggressive after the events at a dog park. He tempermant so sweet and delicate time and I care about you too much change interaction with some of these dogs. What do you think?

I take my dog once a day.
A lot of dog owners pick a time of day, and we all meet there so they play together. After weeks of this routine, my dog just knew it was time for him to go play with his “girlfriend” and other canine friends.
He hasn’t really picked up “bad habbits” he’s just more excited around 7pm when its time to go to the park.
If you have the means, I would take your kid to the park whenever possible. just be responsible about it. Keep an eye on your kid. When and if she starts a bad behavior, just correct it. Other owners sound like they are not responsible parents. Its not the dog that picks up the bad habit but the parents that aloow it.
Hope this helps
Every day is fine, but maybe choose a time of day that’s not as busy (if that’s possible). The only “bad habits” my dogs ever picked up at the dog park were REALLY good sleeping habits from all the exercise.
If she does not like the dog you should take her away, only let her accosiate with the dogs that she really likes. You should take her to the dog park 2 times a week.
