I found out that with C-19 so many people wanted dogs, that the shelters were running out of them. I have heard that from people at the dog park. Some of them already had a dog and were on the waiting list to get another. Go figure.
Although it was fun to bring a dog to the park and see how she interacts with other dogs. I was at the dog park almost daily through the winter.
