What is the general opinion of taking your cav to a small dog run (an enclosed area where many small dogs run free and play) ??
Is this viewed as a wonderful thing for your pup - to play and interact and socialize with other small dogs?
Or is it not so great b/c of the risk of rough-housing, as some of the other small dogs, while still "small" can be significantly larger than a puppy cav ... and also, so many dogs, risk of your dog getting sick, dirty, smelly, etc.
I was there and a woman picked up my puppy and said his heart was beating fast and he might be scared. My puppy is very eager w playing w other dogs, not a feaful personality. But I started to wonder, is the small dog run just too much stimulation for the puppy? Dont want him to get over excited ... or is that being overprotective. Help!
