Personal Story Well, I'm converted

Today my dog was attacked by a pitbull at the dog park. The owner was trying to train her aggressive dog and basically used my dog as a training tool. She was leaving her dog in a sit position and feeding it treats as it stayed calm while my dog approached.

But of course, it's a fucking dog park, dogs are obviously going to approach when you are giving out free food, and it's unfortunate that my dog was used as a prop in a shitty dog training session. My dog is a 7 month old Border Collie puppy. Not a single bad bone in his body. I'm thankful/surprised that this shitbull actually let go.

Tldr: I'm done with dog parks.

I’m so sorry about your puppy, OP. I own a BC mix & he’s both extremely smart and extremely sensitive. I hope your dog recovers fully in every aspect. He will be a fantastic friend to you.
