We travel with two dobies and of course they are sweet and friendly. BUT, we don’t assume anything. One thing our female does is if she sees another dog she’ll bark. Not aggressively but wants to meet the dog. Now we know that but the other owner doesn’t. So we immediately diffuse the situation by going in another direction or they go in the rig.
We also use a device called an “egg” that deters the barking. If someone walks by while we are not there, it emits a high pitched sound only they hear. it works for our guys.
As far a parks not allowing large or assumed vicious dogs we stayed at a park on key west that only asked what our insurance coverage was if there was an incident. We supplied them proof of insurance coverage and it was satisfactory for the association and the lot owner.
Yes we do research all parks for restrictions prior to booking so as not to lose any deposit or fees.
Short story Once at a park in Florida with a new Doberman puppy he was attacked three times from those nice little ankle bitters. From that point on he had aggressive behavior towards small dogs only. So my point any dog can be vicious and owners need to be responsible when it comes to their dogs. Don’t presume anything.
