Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. If the customer is picking it up and taking it themselves, I almost always do. Or if I'm delivering it anywhere too far, I will. Okay, now that I think about it, I probably dowel about 85% of the time. Better safe than sorry 
I have used royal icing between the cakes when I've been in a pinch, but I don't know how trustworthy that method is.
I don't use a center dowel for two tiers, nor do I use RI. In fact, I've never used a center dowel as I will only stack two tiers before traveling. I assemble on-site. Less stress while traveling for me. I deliver all of my cakes, but I guess I would consider using a center dowel if someone was picking it up from me.
