RV Parks and Large Dogs

We have 2 dogs, 1 small (6 Lbs) and 1 large (140 Lbs). I am planning to purchase a class A motorhome and live in an RV park. One of the RV parks in my area requires dogs to be under 20 Lbs. The large dog is very tame, quiet and old. Why are limits placed on sizes of dogs? Some smaller dogs are more noisy and more energetic than the larger, older ones.

Since a couple of years ago when activists got the ball rolling on banning specific breeds. And the insurance companies all jumped on board and basically now many CG's are being held hostage by their insurance policies regarding pets.:(

Setting a limit on weight is an easy way of illuminating the dogs on the banned breed list without having to list all the breeds and furthermore irritating/offending campers with large breed pets.

We had two 50-55 pound dogs and ran into the 20 or 40 pound limit a few times. I always figured it was the loudness of their bark, size of piles and a 10 pound Yorky won't rip your throat out. .

Bottom line; their park, their rules. One reason I like wheels on my RV.

Big dogs scare people little dogs are just yappy. Little dogs make little messes, big dogs make large messes. Not saying I agree with the rule or if it's fair.
