The Villages Neighborhood Watch needs to be proactive in putting a stop to this. It certainly is NOT a designated DOG PARK. Why is it permitted since I see this gathering on a regular basis?

While we are at it, why do dog owners feel they are entitled to use other peoples private property for their DOG PARK? Why do they not use their own yard. I have pets so not a pet hater. Just a very responsible person that understands trespass and private property.

The villages don't have enough dog parks. Each district should have there own dog park if that's are going to allow multiple pets in household with little or no control over the numbers.

Dog parks in the older districts are ruin down and too small. The area I see open field flood plain for the retaining pond. And it's not private property it's owned by district which residents paid for through bonds and elect officials to manage and control.

IMO leave it alone and don't waste money on it, it's common area that only dog walkers use. But, they shouldn't be off leash, owners are responsible to abid by local ordinances.
