The Villages rules are a maximum of two pets. However, we were told that you can bring your pets if you have more than two, but as they pass away, they cannot be replaced, so that you end up with only two.

The Villages is a very pet friendly place. Just be sure that you pick up after any dogs, no matter whether it is public or private property. Also be aware that most folks don't take kindly to dogs peeing or pooping in their yards, even if you pick it up, so it's better to walk them in a public place. No pets are allowed to roam free including cats.
