Went to Granitehill CG this weekend and we saw at least a dozen or more people letting their dogs run loose in the CG. and several letting their little dogs******and not clean it up. The owners just looked around making sure no one was really looking and then walk off trying to get their little mutts to follow them and many didn't. At one point a guy with a large Lab mix had to retrieve his dog because it was attacking a little dog that was on a tie out. He was bragging about how his dog was so obedient and would not hurt anyone. wrong! I know the campground staff has better things to do then to patrol the grounds and making you careless people put your dog on a leash or tie out. I bet the first time I would let my service dog who is a Rotty ! run free everyone would be up in arms to get me tossed. I was so tempted to cut him loose, but then again I am a responsible dog owner. I have a good Idea, I'm going to start taking pictures of the offenders and their rigs license number and turn them into animal control,hmmm can I be that mean, yes, because every time you let that little dog run free I have to put my Rotty in, because If your little dog gets to close I have no Idea what the animals will do! and I will NOT put my service dog down because of your stupidity and carelessness. As I was dumping my tanks I happened to turn around and saw the guy with the Lab running loose again. Drago, my Rotty was in the truck and we had the windows down because of the heat I yelled over to DW to put the windows up because here comes that dog again!I turned to the guy and told him there are leash laws in the state of PA. He said "oh I will just go over here", he never contained his dog. DW went into the office and scolded them about allowing these people to let their animals run free.
By the way the old guy was told several times about his loose dog over the week end.
Your little ****zu ,Poodle or Pomeranian is not cute running around a CG free THEY ARE NOT UNDER YOUR CONTROL!!.People please put them on a leash cause there may be some other camper with a pissed off unleashed Pitbull just waiting to eat a poodle for lunch. or even worse a small child not knowing how to deal with the toy dog and end up getting bit or mauled! by your "cute" dogs.
Before you blast me about me Rotty, he is not out around other dogs much he does get along with some dogs but I WILL NOT take the chance he will get along with all dogs that come near him. I do know he does not like Poodles, he is ok with a few dogs as long as i enter-act with them first, and he sees that I'm safe with them
I couldn't agree with you more. We take our 2 dogs, 1 dobie, 1 weim, and it's always the loose dogs we have trouble with. I'll be walking my dog past "someones" campsite, when "peppy" comes running over, (of the leash) and starts to growl and snap at me and my dobie. Well what do you think happens next? My dobie is TRAINED to protect my wife and I, and he DID his job. (will not disclose facts on here).
The problem is irresponsible people. They think just because they are on vacation, they do not have to worry about anything... dogs, kids, out of control fires, noise, picking up after themselves. We see it all the time. Especially the BIG holiday weekends. They are the worst. That's why we stay home when those "yahoos" are out.
Bottom line, BE RESPONSIBLE for your pets, kids, property. Or the results WILL cost you.
Like someone else said in this thread about kids. I love kids. We have two of our own. What we don't love is the parents who just don't care where they are, what they're doing, and if they can get hurt.
Hopefully people will be more responsible, but we don't have much hope, so we watch out for the "other guy".
I could not agree with you more, however I had the exact opposite happen to me. I have a Golden Retriever, and a Yorkie. I never let them off leash in a campground. I take them out running every day.
Now you have to understand that laws here in Nevada are much different than eastern states and California. Here we have right to carry (weapons, and concealed weapons permit laws) of both which I am in compliance with.
I had the golden and the yorkie on leash outside, and I stepped into the tt to grab a glass of water. I heard the yorkie growl, and I always look out when that happens. A Dobie running free had the yorkie it its jaws. The dobie did not survive. My wifes yorkie did after 6000 bucks of vet bills.
I found the dobie owner, and sued him. I just won enough to cover the vet bills, but now we call our yorkie the dorkie yorkie, as it is blind!
Folks I am telling you, here in Nevada you better keep your dogs under control, or suffer the demise you so richly deserve!

I object putting everything into one basket. Being a landlord whenever a potential tenant list a dog I always say "I am pet lover, but I am negligent pet owners hater"
Than owning a pair of cute 10 lb Jack Russel Terriers I am always tempted to let them loose. They can chase the ball for hours.
Than I noticed one rule in pet parks. The bigger the poop, the more likely it stays on the center of sidewalk.

Was this the "six gun corral and rv park"? Just for the record Nevada is not the only state with those laws on concealed weapons.
Folks this thread has now covered it all, we are shooting em up in the park.

Well it was bound to happen......
Just when the accordian players were trying to take over, which was starting to be fun. Along comes a wild wild west kinda poster....
Ya know, the complainers about noisy kids, barking dogs, ill mannered adults, drunks, and overall rule breakers are better than the "I have a gun and will shoot whatever I feel needs shooting" folks. Good grief!!!

"Shootout at Campground leaves 6 Campers, 1 Accordion Dead, Dog Injured"
The shooter, who survived the fracas, expressed deep remorse at having
harmed the pit bull, which accidentally swallowed several keys as its jaws were locked onto the accordion at the time.
Further details will be made available when the drunks have finished cheering and toasting the day's events. A squad of volunteer bagpipers have offered a rendition of "The Ride of the Valkyrie" for the memorial services stating, "RVers are like that - always ready to lend a helping hand. Nicest folks you'll ever meet."

Great post! Maybe we could have the Bagpipers step in a pile of dog poop, that way everything is covered.
