Nonie - the rule of thumb has always been "if there is a puddle, pond, or lake in Florida assume that there is a gator". Gators travel extensively in central Florida and will attack any size dog given the chance. They are very quick for ten to fifteen yards. I would keep an eye on my pet and not let it roam the shoreline. Hope this helps.
