Dog weight limit

Agreed. Big dogs tend to equal bigger poops and bigger liabilities. Many small breeds are known to be quite vicious- however it’s far less likely anyone will report your mini Pom for attacking them or have any injury of note than say if your Rottweiler were to even playfully bite someone too hard. A big part of why so many small dogs are poorly behaved illustrates the point. Most owners don’t feel the need to instill the same discipline in peaches the toy poodle as in Hulk the 100+lb Akita. So the question answers itself. So it sucks and is often BS because many large dogs are well behaved- but just because you trust your animal doesn’t mean a property owner will when they could share liability and you are the only one seeing a benefit. So it makes sense even if I do t like it.

I kinda hope that you're also @guestwho and secretly double posting and using the second one as a rager.
