I haven't heard of any dogs being banned in TV, but I know for Home Insurance, some dog breeds are expensive, like Rotties as mentioned. Also chows, pit bulls, dobes, sometimes German shepherds.

I don't think the private dog park (DDRR) bans any type of dogs. Tal would know that for sure.
But I do think they watch the more "controversial" breeds closely for any signs of aggression.
