[quote=gerryann;1048374]Oh good grief!!!
Don't you ever walk? Dont any of you ever take walks in your neighborhood?? I don't walk in circles in my backyard. My dog does her business in the backyard. WE go for walks. WE both walk. I have never taken a walk without my dog. I will continue to walk in my neighborhood. My neighbors are all very friendly. They walk their dogs as well.

There are so many things here in TV that you could complain about and maybe "fix". This situation will NEVER change. If you are physically able to walk your dog, your gonna do it.....to walk!! Not to potty them!

It isn't gonna change folks. The Villages is a dog friendly community. It will always be a dog friendly community.[/QUOTE]

Otherwise, realize that there will always be things that are annoying to different people and one either gets over it or they just remain miserable about it.

This particular situation is not going to change so figure out if you are going to spend your life miserable about something that is out of your control or focus on things that make you happy.
Like Shcisamax, I say I won't get sucked in again to these ridiculous threads, where everyone simply repeats what they've said over and over and over in the last 30 dog poop threads.
The Villages allows two dogs per household. It's time that people realize The Bubble is a dog-friendly community.
Unfortunately The Villages didn't provide enough dog parks, which would go a long way toward alleviating the dog walking problem.
Most dog owners have their dogs pee and poop before leaving their property and then they pick it up.
However it's ridiculous to suggest that a dog owner should exercise their dog by walking in circles in their back yard.
