As the title says, is your club/venue dog friendly, whereas the clubhouse at Hythe is OK regrettably the council enforce a beach ban from End April to End September which is a bit of a ball ache. Personally I'd sooner see fish murderers banned, their hooks and broken glass cause more actually painful inconvenience than dog mess, which largely the days is picked up and bagged by most responsible dog owners.

This following on from comments in the travellers thread. If events are staged by dog friendly clubs I'd personally be more likely to attend all other issues being equal.

 coastal clubs who share their beach with a  tourist beach and  waters owned  by the water companies  are the least dog friendly ...

Did an event at Tenby a year or so back. Dogs no problem. Fantastically friendly club. No getting around water and local authority regs I guess but, as a very loose rule, dog friendly clubs are generally very friendly clubs. But if you don't like dogs....s**t happens I guess

Surprisingly, Grafham is very dog friendly; dogs can even go in the downstairs cafe.  At Hunts dogs can be on site but must be kept on leads, and aren't allowed inside.  I'm sure it helps with the success of our opens, especially those where people camp on site.
Rutland is the opposite, dogs are n't even allowed through the gates in your car!
the same, but different...

dogs welcome at Blackwater, but not in the club building, exception, i believe, would be made for guide dogs, and on leads except when walking round our lake where they're allowed to run free.

A big part of the trouble is that sh&t happens whether you like dogs or not and all too many dog owners seem to assume it doesn't!

fortunately the same said owner is statistically just as likely to leave poochie in the car whilst out sailing for 4 races back-to-back without water, food or a window down.   

 It only happens once though.....  Evil Smile

Leigh and Lowton SC is dog friendly (at least there were several around when I visited), Rossendale Valley SC not so, dogs are not allowed on site or on the footpaths around the lake though I don't know how strictly they enforce the ban.

For the windsurfers amongst you, West Pennine Sailboard Club doesn't have a 'no dogs policy' (or at least didn't when I was Chairman). They don't have a 'no geese policy' either which is far more of a problem as the geese haven't yet learned to clear up after themselves.....
