Hi!! Dog mom to a 7 mth old neutered male American bull dog/border collie mix and dearly departed rough collie. I never took our prev dog to a dog park but we have a local one near us. Rory is still a bit stand offish with other male dogs, he had a mastiff/pit mix attack him at 4 mths.
We have since been working on his trust level. We do walks regularly in the last couple mths with friends and their dogs and he does well. We even had a couple older female dogs over after the walk and he was great. He has made a lot of progress. However, he still backs away sometimes if a male tries to approach him. Rory will sniff the other dogs butt but wont let the other dog sniff him. So now we stand at the fence of the dpg park and dogs come over and he wags his tail and seems excited. We havebeen doing this for a mth now and he gets more happy about it. Should I chance bringing him in? He is 70 lbs and solid...
