I agree with the idea of letting the market decide. As far as I'm aware, this is private property and the owners of said property can do what they want on it within the bounds of their licensing and the law.
I don't go to the Ranchman's because of the type of clientele that frequents this establishment and the in my opinion crap music they play.
Do I complain and demand they don't allow Testosterone filled Cowpokes and annoying drunk Cowgirls on the patio so I can go there and grab a pint or a bite without having my appetite ruined? I do not, I just choose to spend my time (and money) somewhere else.
On a side note, we were camping out by Kimberly some years back and were pleasantly surprised how dog friendly it was there. Patios, stores and the outdoor museums in the area (coal mine museum, Fort Steele) all allowed us to come in with our dog, which made our holiday a lot more enjoyable.
