I just looked at the handout we got; and it simply states "any dog exhibiting aggression towards people or other pets will be asked to leave"
I've seen this "policy" at numerous campgrounds. This is truly the definition of "ambiguous". My fear is when it's worded like this you'll either get some yahoo who pushes the dog's buttons and causes a problem or someone just gets irritated with you and uses the dog to get rid of you. Jake and Jesse are as friendly as you can get with dogs and people but any dog can react strongly when provoked.
Well, we haven't been booted yet after Jack (gently) bit the registration lady (OMG!) yesterday. He's REALLY blind (cataracts) when he's outside, and the nice lady had stopped to pet my dogs. Jimmy and Ben are schmoozes; but Jack must have assumed she was feeding him something because he grabbed at her hand as she reached to pet him. She laughed when I apologized profusely and told her that Jack was blind - she's clearly a dog lover. But my heart simply stopped when he did that; I will have to keep him away from everyone from now on.
