We were in a campground for spring break last year and on the last day we were in the campground, we had two women pull in beside of us. They had 3 dogs with them, but they were quiet and well behaved. The women set up their camper but then they pulled pieces of 6' long rebar out of their truck and began hammering them into the ground. After they got one side done, they began stringing the orange plastic fencing to the rebar. This went on for about 2 hours until........
.......they hit a water line and water went a'squirting about 10' into the air!!
They pulled that piece out of the ground and went on stringing up their fence.
When the camp hosts drove around and saw the big orange pen (approximately 20X20 that went right up to their door, they did a double take and when they saw the water standing on the ground, now about an inch deep throughout the entire enclose, they were flabbergasted.
They immediately went and got someone with some authority that came back with a tool to turn the water off to that site, they called the police and had the women packing up and out of there in about 30 minutes! The camp host said that they would be charging the women the cost of fixing the water line, which would include digging it up. It was a locality owned park, so I am sure that they meant business.
I checked into going back this year, but things just didn't work out for us. They had a new item on their website.....no pet enclosures. Tie-outs only and 6' in length maximum.
The women were very protective of their dogs and wanted to protect them and us, but it sure created mass mayhem in the campground that afternoon.
