Joeshmoe - I don't see it that way at all. Why should one person be allowed to let their dog roam into others' "territories"? My campsite belongs to me. I paid for it. I don't want your dog in my campsite. The campground rules state the dogs must be on a leash or confined. Keep your dog out of other people's campsites unless they give you permission.
I don't want to clean up after your dog. I'm cleaning up after two of my own. I have had people let their dogs go in my site when I step away and leave it for me to clean up. Keep your dog out of my site.
I don't want your dog trying to steal our food - whether it's mine or my dogs' food. I don't want to have to chase your dog away because I and/or my dogs are eating. Keep your dog out of my site.
I don't want your dog peeing on my belongings (or my dog - I had one do that while the owner laughed. It's not funny). I don't want to have to hose down my chairs or cooler or tent or tires, etc. Keep your dog out of my site.
It doesn't matter why I don't want your dog in my campsite. It's my right not to have your dog there. And if your dog is roaming around uncontrolled, then YOU are responsible for whatever happens to your dog. You had the ability to prevent the problem by simply following the rules. You chose to ignore the rules - you are responsible for the consequences of that choice.
