A limit on the total number of dogs permitted on the property at any one time, as distinct from the per room limit required under R7. Where a provider applies a property wide dog capacity, this must be stated in the published policy. A property wide limit does not affect certification provided it is disclosed. An undisclosed property wide cap that results in guests being turned away on arrival despite holding a valid booking is non conformant.

Property Wide Dog Capacity
Roch Interpretation
A property wide cap is allowed, but guests need to know it exists before they book. A hidden cap that results in a guest arriving with a confirmed dog booking and being turned away is a failure, not an operational quirk.
