No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here.
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

I keep noticing those who sit at dog parks tend to have the most misbehaved dogs (lemmy.ca)

Sounds bad to be so judgemental, but day after day at the park, the most misbehaved dogs tend to be owned by those who sit at dog parks and chat, smoke, bring random lawn chairs etc..

The breeds of dog also tend to be the same, 'pitbullish' style or cane Corso, or those dogs so small and yappy.

It's somewhat frustrating. If I see more then 1 or 2 people sitting, I know there is most likely going to be some altercation between dogs and there usually is..

Is it the same in your area?

Over here, those with "well behaved dogs" seem to just let them off the leash to run around wherever the fuck they want.

It's an off leash dog park provided by the city..I don't understand what you're talking about.

"Wherever they want" meaning not at a park because they think their dog is just too good to get hit by a car. Hence why they aren't at parks and thus op is only finding poorly behaved dogs there. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
