That's what vaccines are for.
You don't stay away from MALLS out of fear of disease, do you? Neither should your pet stay away from parks!
If you are afraid of your pet being hurt by an untrained dog, come equipped. Bring pepper spray to break up any fights. But more importantly, have a spine and speak firmly to the owner of any dog that is being aggressive. Ask him to control his dog or leave. Call the police if he becomes belligerant. Don't be worried that you are being rude: it is ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY that owners of untrained dogs be taken to task for their dog's behavior, or else they will ruin the fun for the good dogs.
Dogs deserve a chance to run off-leash and in many places a dog park is the only safe place to do it. They also deserve a chance to play and romp with someone who isn't delicate and pink, like we are!
