Have not run in to that problem since we started living in our 5ver since May. Thinking about it, hook up and move. biggrin

We have found most full time RVers have well behaved dogs.For the rare occasions you can advise park management as most parks state in the rules that barking dogs will not be tolerated. I would rather they be made to move for disturbing others.

There is one of those little yeppers 2nd door over. You will have this issue sometime, however its really not that often. We are lucky to be in a Mobile Suites and when inside the noise out side isn't bad at all. We have a large furr Kid "Montana" and have traveled thousands of miles and he only barks when someone knocks on the door. That is how furr kids lets you kow its his area. But a furr kid only does what the Alpha male let him do, you have to be leader of the pack. We are blessed to have Montana he minds as good as our kids did.

If it was an issue I would notify the park and let them take care of it. Every park we have stayed at had rules about noise, be it dogs or people.

There will be more and more RV parks banning dogs and I'm not surprised after our experience this year. Each winter we stay for three months at an RV park on the edge of the rainforest at Cairns (QLD Australia). The park is one of the very few in the area that allows pets and normally there are no problems... this year the continual yapping of dogs drove many of us mad.
The yappers concerned were all of the lap-dog variety, many owners had two of them!! The larger dogs were not a problem at all.

The owners of the dog behind us were approached on a number of occasions by various park residents and asked to quieten their dogs with the result being that the complainants were abused.

For the first time in our seven years of RVing we ended up complaining to management about the continual barking to discover that we were only one of many who had complained.

I understand that there may be a surprise in store for those owners when they try to book a site for next year in that they may be told you are welcome but your dog isn't.
