I think the OP got the answer to their question, from a number of posters, with common sense. I agree with some of them, as to the rule being posted, for whatever is needed, like alcohol not allowed, no parking on grass, quiet times. It takes the argument out of the picture, when there IS A PROBLEM.
Like many issues on this forum, some will argue relentlessly, needing the last word, so they feel most important. It is easy to pick out the radicals, that just want to be right.
Dogs are a big part of many families, and more has been done to accommodate these fur family members in recent years. Many motels, even high end places allow your dog in your room now. Some charge extra, no problem, but to compete with other CGs, or hotels, to keep your business they are doing it.
True in an emergency, such as a fire, or natural disaster, a dog could die in a camper, in your S&B house, or a tree fall on them. Bad things do happen, people die, pets die, a sad thing for sure, but a fact of life.
A responsible pet owner, is a good camping neighbor. The same ones that ignore their dog barking, also let their kids run loose in every ones campsite, and the ones drinking/partying outside, even after quiet time.
The OP asking about their new family member, is an indication to me, that they are going to be a responsible dog owner, capable of getting much enjoyment from their new best friend.
