Limit toys and treats, but not water. It’s OK to give your dog a treat but brandishing lots of toys and treats may create conflict with other park patrons. Do not give treats to other dogs without their caregivers’ consent.

It’s fine if you bring treats for your dog, as long as they aren’t food aggressive and you can feed them without drawing too much attention. But you should refrain from giving them to other dogs. If you don’t know them, you don’t know how they are with treats. Some dogs may be aggressive or possessive when given treats around other dogs. Additionally, some dogs may have food allergies that you don’t know about. Avoid the risk and keep the treats to yourself – or just leave them at home.

Lots of dogs suffer with various intolerances or allergies - if you must bring treats into a dog park, give them to your dog only. Sharing is not caring in this case! Also make sure that you are subtle about your treat giving - there is nothing worse that taking your dog to a Bark Park and having him beg constantly at other customers feet.
