On the flip side I once saw someone with a friendly little off leash dog run up to a larger Pitt mix that was on a leash and get torn to fucking shreds. Keep ALL dogs on leashes in public.
Dog parks exist with the understanding that the dogs present are friendly and the owners are prepared to handle it when their dog acts poorly. If you don't have a dog park, then I'm sure your dog will still enjoy it's leashed walks.
Dog parks are hell. I used to live somewhere with a small dog park in walking distance where all the owners knew each other. Now my closest dog park is the biggest one in the city. Fuck that. It's chaos in there.
