Emotions do run high sometimes, especially when it comes to our pets. Inconsiderate owners are as frustrating as golfers who don't repair their ball marks on greens or rake the sand bunkers, but that's another topic!

The times we are down, there appears to be a lot of locals (non-Villagers) with dogs. I wonder if they may be more the problem of being inconsiderate, especially young owners. IMO, with the life experiences we "Villages-age-group" have, we tend to understand more the need to be considerate of not just our pets, but our fellow man as well. To me that is what makes TV "Florida's Friendliest Hometown". Everytime I hear the jingle when I go to TV website, it soothes me like a "bourbon and branch water", and makes my wife and I want to be there as soon as we can!!

I guess it is was my upbringing, but I'm a "hugger" as I feel it expresses my respect and feelings to my friends better than a hand shake. So to Josephine I send a b-i-g HUG for expressing your feelings on this topic. And, don't you dare stop visiting TOTV.
