No dogs allowed at the Classic unless it is kept in camp on a lead, and it is not a barker. No dogs in the vending /concession/range or work shop areas. Sorry and hope you understand. Had lots of trouble with dogs and crowds over the years so best to not have them around.

I agree. When you have dog problems just look at the owners. Crowds and dogs don't mix no matter what anyone says. Hope it works out.

There are lots of great dogs and great dog owners, but it only takes one or two to ruin it for the rest.  I was at a shoot earlier this year and saw someone walking a BIG dog...and it left a BIG "land mine" right in a high traffic area.  Owner looked at it and walked on.  If I'd been close enough I would have said something.  A little common courtesy goes a long way, but unfortunately it's not too common with some folks.  Good call Pappy.

Pappy, that's a sensible approach. Unfortunate but necessary given past negative experiences.
The years accumulate on old friendships like tree rings, during which time a kind of unspoken care and loyalty accrue between men.

99% of the people who plan to attend your great event just breathed a sigh of relief Pappy.

Pappy, my daughter is epileptic (has seizures) and has a therapy dog (chihauhau) who stays on a leash, never barks, and is crate trained for camp. Would this be okay?

Ok. Thanks. I got it wrong in my previous post though. Lilly, the dog, is a service dog, not a therapy dog. But she will be fine staying in camp.

No problem Ron, we will work it out with you and her, we will do what we need to do for her best interest.

People, crews, can run their camps however they want, but I think its worth pointing out I doubt you could find a Indian encampment without loose dogs running around.

It takes all kinds, but mostly dog problems come from dog owners who probably should not have dogs which gets into a bigger issue of parents who should probably not have kids, lol.

It seems the easy answer if you do not have a dog is to ban all dogs. Then what to do with dogs who are actually part of the archery hunting experience like a blood trail dog? Lets say I wanted to bring a trained tracking dog and show off how good it would track a blood trail as a vender?

Then you have a legal issue concerning Federal Law. Did you know there is no such thing as a Federal License for a "Service Dog" or that you cannot ask a person what their disability is if they claim to have a service dog? Yes, i know the law on such things but suggest that if you do confront anyone for bringing and or having a dog, you dig pretty deep into what is and is not a service dog and the two questions you can legally ask and the half a dozen or so reasons you can even ask someone with a service dog to leave without opening up a court case.

No worries, just want to make sure you guys have some of the extra info about service dogs and questions that may come up with your plan,
