I have a database that was created from a ‘pg_dump –C’.  No problems there.  Then  I ran the pg_dump  again, this time without the –C. and tried to load it.   But   got a bunch of ‘object already exist’.   

Can’t I refresh an existing database from a plain pg_dump?  Is  there an option that I have to use?

You should probably expound on what you mean by "refresh".
