State Land Access in Washington

Out of curiosity, have any houndsmen/women had issues with access to state lands or "public lands" in the state of Washington?

Some states have imposed restrictions on dogs running (unleashed) on public lands during certain times of the year. Or have denied access in it's entirety. Or there are limitations to access, like certain "bow hunting only" areas, etc.

Has this become an issue in Washington state?

Thanks in advance for any insight and/or information you can provide!
