What if a dog pees on your tent on a gro up hike?

The Bad Smell thread made me wonder about this.

First things first, I like dogs. I like hiking with dogs that their owner keeps tabs on, like Sarabelle. So this isn't an antidog thread.


The question in my mind is what, if anything, does the dog owner 'owe' you if their dog pees or otherwise damaged your tent while camping in a TT group?

You get to eat two pounds of asparagus and piss on their down sleeping bag.

Eye for an eye and a pee for a pee.

the dog is calling dibs on your tent. Grab your #&%!$ and vacate the premises immediatly.

Dogs can sense evil in people.

The doggie wee wee don't lie.

Someone was chosen from the group, as is obvious from the thread title.

That person must be the evil one.

You will need a witch doctor to undo the evil in your soul.

I like conk's idea. Won't have to pack that heavy backpacker food. Your meal walks to you.

LOL...I don't really know, but I did have a friend who used to keep a MELLO YELLOW Wide mouth container in his tent for "night calls" on cold nights. One night about 4 am he felt the bladder alarm. He grabbed the bottle, used it and deposited it in the Snow outside his tent.

He was awakened about 7 AM by two hushed voices talking about the "Mellow Yellow" chilling in the snow. He heard the unmistakable crunch of shoes in snow...then the faded rapidly.....There was a GAGGING/PUKING sound then the suspect crept back up and put the bottle back. (LOL)....

Justifiable desserts.

If your tent was damagaed, they buy another one. If the dog relieved himself, they have to get it professionally cleaned. If the cleaning doesn't work then they should replace it.

My friend brought her boyfriend home. They were extremely drunk. They enter the dark house and he whips it out and starts relieving himself on her living room floor. Well all of a sudden the light comes on because 2 of her sisters were asleep , on the floor , and were woken up by the "spray". If I had been there I probably would have thrown up.:(

I was sleeping on a floor many moon ago when a drunk guy did the same thing.

The Angel Of Piss passed me by for the mook who was sleeping beside me.

He got it right in the ear.

Dogs are pretty cool. I have a pure bred Syberian (sp?) Husky. I think the way a dog acts is how the owner treats him. My husky marks bushes. I honestly thought only cats did that.

We had a group at a mountain campsite...they mentioned how the evening when they got in they noticed a tree limb at the edge of camp that allowed you to "drop" over the side of the cliff....Next morning they found out the OTHER campsite was at the bottom of the cliff.

1. Kill the #&%!$ing dog.

2. Kick the owners ass.

3. Piss on the owners tent.

4. Sit down and have another drink.

If my dog does this, I will replace the gear. No questions asked. If your dog does it to my gear I expect the same. If you get drunk and spill booze, I expect the same, replacement. I take care of my mistakes, or my animals, and kids. Things happen, don't get excited. Its only money.

How does one get goat smell out of a tent?
My goat has been sleeping next to my tent for a couple of weeks. Starting to smell like the goats home, not mine.

Damage caused by dogs not on a leash are the financial responsibility of their owners.

Just a couple of rules that were unspoken but mutually agreed upon where I grew up.
You broke it, you bought it!
And that goes along with, your responsible for yourself and yours.
