8 Simple Rules to Follow at the Dog Park, According to a Dog Trainer

Forgo the favorite toys, but certainly don't forget the favorite treats! A small treat like a Blue biscuit can go a long way in calling your dog back, especially in an environment as stimulating and distracting as a dog park.

"If and when you want to call your dog back to put their leash on and leave, treats are excellent," Tori said. "Even the most distracted dogs will come back to have a treat, so you won't have to be chasing them around the park."

That said, be wary that other dogs will likely come running to you as well. Make sure you check with any other pups' owners before dishing out treats to their dogs as well (no matter how popular and beloved you may feel!).
