Dog Etiquette for a Newbie
Hello,
I have recently purchased a Sunseeker 3100 LE and I am planning my first trip out with my 3 dogs (all boys). I know that as I walk them around they are going to mark on the trees. I would expect that most people would be upset if a dog marked a tree at the entrance to thier site. So, I am wondering what is the appropriate procedure for walking the dogs around the camp grounds?
Thanks!!

I agree; I havent seen or heard of anyone getting on any owner's case about a little pee. But boy, let a pile lay there and watch the fireworks!!

Pee is fine. Poo is not fine.

With dogs...they can do it where they please...on leash. (well, not on the leash...ish) Nature is a dogs toilet.
I agree....ALWAYS pick up the #2. Trees are fair game...and fully expected.
I don't like dogs running loose doing it all over my Lafuma chairs, however...

Fire for effect big guy! Moisture upon the rubber keeps em from dry rotting.

Excessive barking should be avoided also. I saw a guy get in a shoving match (no punches though) because the next camper had one of those little yappers that wouldn't shut up.
The little yapper and family packed it up and left the campground...

Shoving match? Heck if you're gonna step up and confront someone, you might as well go all the way!

I guess the overall answer in a campground, whether it be bringing dogs or having campfires or playing that rock & roll music those darn kids like, is be respectful of others. Campgrounds are shared space.
We also notice that when campers with dogs introduce themselves, let the neighbours get to know them and their pets (not while they're three-leggin' it on a tree, but afterward maybe) it does a lot to improve things. Hard to complain about a dog you just petted.
Also, the 'OK to pee on the tree' thing does NOT apply to the owner.

Dogs and camping are great but...
I would tolerate a barking dog over drunk foul mouthed party goers any day! Seems like those who complain about the beasts are the ones at 2 am keeping everyone awake.

In my park, the ones partying til 2 are the ones with the barkers! Sort of a double treat.

sorry Welsh...I missed your question.
Here's the abridged version of the story:
we were in the RV, asleep that night. At 3am, we got a call and had to return home for a family crisis. (ie...son at home alone/party) I count the nights stayed only, and not the days I spend there...which number MUCH higher.
