I think that in your case pulling out things that are toxic to the dog, or which will be a pain in the ass to untangle from its fur, is wise. When it comes to things that are prolific but you can eat, a lot of people will not pull it all out, but will keep an eye on it to make sure you have some but it doesn't run rampant and use up your whole space.
Another thing to consider is how you want to handle invasives. A lot of permies see some value in them if they're useful, again its more about management than totally irraticating them for many. Sure some people don't want them at all, but for many of us there's a more nuanced approach to it than there was back 20 years ago and since fully fighting them is a never-ending battle many of us want to manage rather than try to irradicate fully.
I do Celtic, fantasy, folk and shanty singing at Renaissance faires, fantasy festivals, pirate campouts, and other events in OR and WA, USA.
