We didn't specify "No Dogs" at this year's festival. We posted on the web and posters "NO PETS".
Bobad has a dog that I would welcome at any festival, yet my brother has a little cute dog that children run up to and because of it's temperament would not hesitate to bite. That is the problem. The owners of the property that the festival was held have two humongous dogs which they had put away for the festival. Both are very gentle and love children. However they insisted at the board meeting that no dog be allow. Most board members also agreed. As someone mentioned there is a liability concern even though insurance can cover this. But who wants to have this as a problem. Then there are folks who are afraid of dogs period.
