Do Your Part
Some of your own behaviors can directly influence how your Shih Tzu acts at the dog park. There are even some things that you can do before going to the park to ensure a successful trip. This includes making sure that your pet is properly vaccinated and socialized with other dogs. You should also be doing your own training at home to discourage negative behaviors. While at the park, make sure that you pay attention to your pet, and discipline when necessary. Don’t just ignore unacceptable behavior. Be courteous to other pet owners by making sure that you clean up after your pup. Make sure you and your pet obey all rules of the park, too. By doing so, everyone and their pets will be able to have fun at the dog park – including you and your Shih Tzu!
