bark rangers) are well-intentioned dog lovers but the management team is a different story.įetch management obsessively caters to the fears and apprehensions of so called "dog parents," overprotective owners of pedigree or fluffy dogs who often gather in groups and complain about certain dog breeds, which by their very existence are seen as threats. It is a well-maintained dog park that offers entertainment, alcohol, and a place where you can work on your laptop. This review primarily applies to the Fetch Buckhead but I suspect it applies to other Atlanta locations.įetch is dog park that is set in a lively, bar-like atmosphere that at first glance feels open and friendly. We hope that this response brings some clarity - Fetch Park management While we appreciate your patronage rules must apply to everyone, and they must be enforced for safety purposes. This policy is in the waiver members sign, read to you when you initiate an account and printed on signage strategically placed throughout the park. There is absolutely no outside food, snacks, or dog treats allowed in the off-leash area of the park for safety reasons. You were asked if you had dog treats on your person and you replied in the affirmative stating that you always carry them with you when you come to the park so you can get your dog to leave with the time comes. In addition, while speaking with the Director of Operations, dogs alerted to a pouch you were wearing. This was not energetic play, this type of behavior is unwanted and not conducive to the atmosphere at Fetch Park, and therefore at minimum a strike for your dog’s behavior was warranted. But you did have at least a twenty-minute conversation with the Director of Operations and the Manger regarding the incident that included a review of the video that showed your dog aggressively lunging at a shepherd resulting in a scuffle. Unfortunately, we did not contact you before you came back to the park the next day and for that, we apologize. Your dog was involved in an incident that resulted in a strike. Your review is centered around an experience you recently had at Fetch Park Buckhead. Fetch Park employees monitor dog behaviors and if any dog exhibits behavior that could escalate, redirection occurs to interrupt fixation or other inappropriate behavior. Our Woof Wardens are trained in dog behavior, redirection, and mitigation techniques.įetch Park employees DO NOT favor any breed of dogs. Strict entry requirements regarding vaccines, spay/neuter status, and the waiver signed by each member attesting to their dog’s ability to maintain itself in this type of environment are just a few of the many policies we have implemented for safety. First and foremost safety is of paramount importance at Fetch Park. Barrow, we appreciate your perspective as it relates to your review but would like to add clarity so that others who read this review can draw a more accurate conclusion regarding the trained personnel, policies, and practices at Fetch Park.
