Our local county park system does allow dogs but they have to be on leash at all times. It is plainly posted all over the parks. The park system includes many large 1000+ acre areas that allow for overnight camping with tents and motor homes.
Many of those vacationing in motor homes have brought their pets with them. The leash law was put in place to protect people from those dogs that have idiots for owners that let their dogs roam free in the camp grounds. Sure Fido was good yesterday but today Fido wanted to pee all over the clean pile of towels that someone placed in a hamper next to their motor home. When Fido got caught in the act the owner of the towels got just a tad upset with Fido's owner, who in turn called the towel owner a few choice names and it went on from there.
Having a pet off of the leash can ruin enough vacations so that you want to sell motorhome as soon as you got home. Find out the leash laws of the area you are visiting even if you don't have your own dog with you. There might not be a leash law and you will want to know that too.
