Hi John
My wife and I walked in April this year and saw no rush for albergue beds as reportedly happens on Camino Frances. As a back up there is usually other accommodation available, but costs more. However, it may be a seasonal thing in any given year and 2010 being a Holy Year may see more...
Hi - My wife and I walked the Silver Route in April and had no encounters with dogs that were threatening. The Spanish tend to chain their dogs (a whole other story!). I would not consider dogs an issue that you need to worry about at all. Buen camino.
