I am not trying to start a debate or argument here but some of the comments are really ridiculous. We travel with 2 shihtzu's. They are family to us and go most places we go. We pick up their poop as soon as they go, keep them on a leash when outdoors and we stop them immediately if they begin to bark. This is something all dog parents should do. They are well behaved because they have been trained to be so. What I find ridiculous is those complaining of dogs peeing in the grass. Really? I guess wild animals do not live near where you camp? Not sure where that may be but everywhere we go seems to have some sort of wildlife in the area that often come into the campsites at night (deer, bear, raccoons etc.). Not to mention the chipmunks or squirrels that play all day around us. Where do you think all the wildlife pee? I'd bet it is in the grass or on the ground wherever they are when the urge hits. You are camping amongst wildlife...enjoy it and quit worrying about a dog peeing in the grass. I have female dogs so they don't hike their leg on things...just squat. BTW, my dogs pee in the grass at home too...I have a beautiful yard and my grass is not dead where they go. I just get amazed sometimes at some of the comments.
If pee is no problem, you obviously would have no problem if I came over and peed on your RVs step. You might even thank me for washing the dirt off it. All those dead spots in RV sites and dog runs, are those the areas where dogs didn't pee? To deny that animal urine can kill grass is just being an ostrich and sticking your head in the sand. (and yes I know they really don't do that when they are trying to hide)
