The owner is probably tired of having his employees spend time picking up after pet owners, and tired of hearing from campers who are irate because their toddler found a dog turd to play with on their campsite.
Over the last ten or so years, as parks have relaxed their rules, a good number of dog owners have decided that it is their God given right to show up with four big dogs, take them to the beach, let them run around off leash, and only clean up after them if someone is watching.
Last year at a state park, we watched the owners of a 170 lb Newfoundland allow their dog to defecate in the brush directly behind their site for three days, and never picked up a thing.
Some dog owners are their own worst enemies.
