Breed Discrimination?
Who has run into it, where and what breeds? Looking for a new buddyI like the German Shepherd but have to look at a mix with "they say" lab and american bull dog. More turmoil.

We travel with our brindle Amstaff to many campgrounds. We have had a few campgrounds ask her breed and tell us that she is restricted. Once they meet her they say no problem. Our dog is a certified therapy dog(not a service dog) and one owner had us fax over her behavior assessment paperwork. We have been to many campgrounds and haven't had any issues. As a matter of fact our "pit" type dog is usually a favorite. If certain dogs are an issue at a place we'd like to try, then not worth our money or time. Just over the weekend our dog delivered a kissing attack to a 5 year old. I've had people cross the street and pick up their barking 5 pound dog as my dog quietly and calmly walks by. The fact of the matter is that most dogs with issues aren't at campgrounds. Those owners are too irresponsible to take them out for training and socialization. I always make an effort to introduce my dog to staff and say hi. My dog is welcome at places that have bans in place. Plenty of places to camp, go and have fun.
