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.
Great answer.
Great Danes, Pyranees ,St. Bernards and many other large breeds are known to be well tempered, but is such a large pet appropriate in camp where it is necessary to walk it in a new environment among unknown children and smaller aggressive dogs?
Camps have to make the rule for liability and to suit clientele. A pet of breed or large enough to cause concern to our other guests is one to restrict.
Its not how you know your pet so much as it is how the others view it.
