most of you probably are aware of these dangers to your pets but after talking to my vet today I must admit I Wasant! hope these are helpful.

Wash your dogs paws after comming in from any time spent in grass. There are harmful pesticides and other chemicals that are sprayed on lawns.
(this was suspected in the death of my daughters dog. She developed cancer on her toes that spread throughout her body. )

Dont give your pets tap water. Also harmful chemicals in the water. Use either distilled water or have a quality filter put on your faucet,

The pine straw that is used in The Villages is infested with ticks and fleas. Much of it is brought in from south America.

This veteranarian is a long time Villager himself and Im so grateful he informed me of these dangers.
