Dogs

Well-behaved dogs are welcome! If you have a small dog, you may want to leave it behind. My large dog tends to think small dogs are puppies and likes to roughhouse. Your little one might get a bit startled when she comes over to play. With larger dogs, she usually just gives them a sniff and moves on.
