The couple were very complementary of the park and were glad to have found it. Their only comment of concern was "...you could have better signage telling people where it (the dog park area in the park) is". They said it took "forever" to find it. So what would be the possibility of ...

I put K9 Advantix, under 10lbs size, on Ginger & Rowdy, my toy poodles, on Tuesday afternoon. By the time we got home on Tuesday night, Ginger was in a full adverse reaction. She's exhibiting the "bent tail" and is twitching uncontrollably. Took Ginger to vet, gave us Valium for "anxiety". We're also giving her children's Benadryl.
