We have a lot of pets in The Villages. I think that is so for a lot of reasons. Many people live alone for one, and the other is that many of us have always had dogs or cats and enjoy them. Most people who live here are responsible. Sometimes people who visit only, are in a vacation mode and forget that many people call this place home year 'round.

In a week or two, the population will drop all over Florida and the nine month "normal" will return. We love our visitors and we love when traffic drops.

Me and mine. We like pups and are owned by two kitties. It would be so much easier cleaning without them, but they are very loved....not as much as our children, but for Pete's sake don't tell them.
I have met the OP and agree with you. But this is not OP's first weigh-in on the topic. Enough with calling people out for taking their dogs out with them, already. I don't believe anyone in TV would willingly submit his or her dog to something that made it fearful or anxious. You don't know people's pets unless you've walked a mile in their paws.
