I know this thread is about camping in the U.S. but I found the lists below interesting, since I'd never even heard of some of these breeds.
I travel with a service dog outside the U.S. fairly often, which requires various requirements and permits with the help of a USDA-certified veterinarian. It's fairly common to see a few breeds prohibited like Pit Bulls. Recently I was looking at Bermuda, and noticed their lists relating to importing dogs.
"Prohibited Breeds:
(Dogs of these breeds may not be imported, bred or used for breeding)
American Pit Bull Terrier
American Bulldog
American Staffordshire Terrier
Argentine mastiff (Dogo Argentino)
Boerboel (South African Mastiff)
Brazilian Mastiff (Fila)
Cane Corso
Neapolitan Mastiff
Presa Canario
Tosa Inu
Wolf
Wolf Hybrid
Any Cross of the above"
There's another list of Restricted Breeds - people who want to import a dog on this list have to build an escape-proof structure and comply with various other stringent requirements. Some surprises on this list for me.
"Restricted Breeds:
(Dogs of these breeds may be imported/kept once the conditions for keeping these dogs have been fulfilled by the importer/new keeper. New acquisitions of these dogs require pre-approval. Dogs of these breeds may be bred only following receipt of a Breeder’s permit.)
Akita
Australian Cattle Dog
Belgian Malinois
Bouvier des Flandres
Bull Terrier
Bullmastiff
Chow Chow
Doberman Pinscher
Dogue de Bordeaux
German Shepherd
Mastiff – English
Rhodesian Ridgeback
Rottweiler
Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Any Cross of the above"
