I was told that these fences are not approved by The Villages. If a person is reported for having their dog off leash, it could escalate to Animal Control seizing the animal. This came from a Community Standards meeting or whatever it's called. Community Standard # is 751-3912.
I been here for 10+ years and have seen two dogs running free. In both cases the owners were in hot pursuit. So roaming dogs are not a problem in TV. As to stopping owners letting their dogs run loose in their yards, good luck...........
