Living in fear will keep you captive. That said, I'd worry more about being hit by lightening as FL is the "lightening capital". Weather here is different than "up north" in that we get effects from the sea breezes. IF the sky looks black don't count on that it will rain. We've had rain in the front of our house and sun at the same time in the back. We've lived here 13 yrs. Haven't seen any bears except on tv. Saw a coyote once but not fox or panthers! Yes, keep your Poochie leashed as that's the law but it is in other states as well. Oh...the other thing I'd worry about is the traffic. Oh.my----people drive crazy here!!!
