Get a Million $ insurance policy guaranteeing coverage for any and all damages they might cause...I would then let them into my RV Park as that would make up for voiding my insurance.
No need for a policy you keep your vacancy and I will keep my money.
I know I can find another park without breed restrictions to accept my money, I hope/trust you can find another camper to fill your vacancy.
It's a win for both of us no policy required.
I've spent thousands in camping fees over the years, unfortunately none of it went to your CG. Unfortunately your breed restricting policies are restricting your revenues along with the dogs.
You are only seeing one side of the issue. As a non-pet person, I always check out the pet rules at potential parks and choose the ones with the strictest rules. So, in my case, they are gaining business because of their rules. I'm pretty sure there are far more people RVing without pets than there are people RVing with dogs on the aggressive breeds list, so the parks with stricter rules are going to be the winners.
The fallacy is that there is an aggressive breed list.
I can understand you are not a dog person,but to believe we can somehow judge or determine a dog's aggression based on its breed is ridiculous.
We cannot determine a dog's aggression no more than we can determine a humans aggression.
If you choose no pet parks maybe your free of aggressive dogs.
But if dogs are allowed than there is a chance some idiot owner may have brought an aggressive dog to the CG. Breed restrictions do not eliminate the potential for aggressive dogs.
It's really not about the breed it's about the owner!
Since we certainly can not judge an owner/person by looking at them, we also cannot determine the dogs aggression.
When it comes to winners and losers, I'm still spending my camping $$$$ somewhere. I'm just not spending it at the breed restricted CG. I'm not sitting home with my Doberman with no place to go.
However a CG with breed restrictions is losing/refusing me as a customer. Hopefully they can replace me as easily as I can replace them.
AT the end of the day it is their loss not mine.
