Can not believe what I just saw

Can not believe what I just saw.
I am setting here at Pirateland looking out my window. A guy in the row behind me walks out of his rig with his dog on leash.
They mill around for awhile, then he walks his dog to his neighbor's site (neighbor not there) and let's his dog take a wizz on his picnic table shade cover. They then walk back to thier sight and go inside.
Unbelievable!!!!

  • Unfortunately the manners of RV'ers seems to be going down hill. I remember when your neighbor on the road and at a CG would be courteous. Hotels were another story. I don't know if these folks are true RV campers or full timers or those that just don't care about anyone else. We are currently full-timers and I try to keep my site clean and leave it in better condition than when I arrived or at least the way I would like to find it. Not to change the topic, but it is a good idea to turn off your breaker switch when you leave so the next person in won't get a jolt or surge if they do something stupid.

    If I had proof. Otherwise I said he said. Wasn't me you got the wrong guy. Stirring the pot without proof just gets stink on everyone and resolves nothing.

    I just wanted people to be aware of some people's attitude of acceptable campground behavior.
  • I agree the OP should have spoken up.... either to the moron or to the camp hosts/Ranger. Uncorrected that sort of behavior will likely continue. Watched a guy lay his sewer hose across the picnic table once. I asked him what the "heck" he was thinking and got only a mumbled apology. Hopefully he won't do it again but not counting on it.
  • Haven't we all seen dogs scooting on top of the picnic table? Don't people realize that folks like to dine on that table?
  • This is one of the reasons why I always take the time to wash down the picnic table right after we get the camper set up. First, you never know what small critter has walked across the top of it, racoon, squirrels, chipmonks and have peed on them. Second, there is almost always bird do on them too.

    Fortunate, we have the outside stove and sink and I attached the curled hose and replaced the end with a standard yard sprayer. I can soap up the picnic table and rinse it down, which I always do. Then after each meal, I wash it down again, to remove any spilled food.

    But, I will say, I never thought about the neighbor's dog using it for a fire hydrant when I wasn't there! Give me a new reason to be more free with the bubbly soap! I get strange looks from the neighbors many times, bubbling up the picnic table, but this is exactly why I do it.

    Still, that's pretty bad of the neighbor camper... really!

  • Unfortunately, we can't fix rude/stupid.

    Doesn't everyone realize everything you do these days is probably being recorded?
  • On a tire is bad enough but don't let your dog do it's thing where my family and I eat and prep food and gather. Total disrespect. Let him relieve himself on your own site. Better yet take him to the dog area.
  • I've seen more than one dog's pee on my truck tires. Imagine if dog owners had to clean up the pee.
