  • Do a quick “gate check” before entering; remove leashes inside the double gate to avoid tangles.
  • Scan the park dynamics; if play looks too rough for your dog’s style, try a quieter corner or another park.
  • Bring water in warm months even if taps are available.
  • Practice reliable recall; reward calm greetings and breaks.
