I don't own a dog. I have only had two dogs in my life. I don't think there is an OVERabundance of dogs here, Maybe an abundance. People love their dogs and their dogs make them happy.
I think The Villages is as close to perfect as anyone can make a place where about 90,000 old farts, some of them danged cranky all live together. Everyone KNOWS I love this place. It was recently posted that a very nice person who I respect mightily is truly afraid of all dogs. I think that may be the case in some dog posting situations, that people are afraid of dogs.
The OP posted that he was attacked and I know that all of us agree that we are indeed happy that he or his wife were not bitten. Dogs DO bite and dogs should not be running around unleashed. I reread my post and stood up for large dogs. Some dogs who used to walk their owners in Hadley, our old neighborhood, were Great Danes, Jack Sparrow was one of the two and they were REALLY big dogs but really just little puppy spirits. Sweet and nice.
Let's not get all mad at each other when all we do is talk way too much on here sometimes and kind of pick at things until they bleed.
This was NOT meant directed at you Red Chariot with the New Jersey EDGE...I kind of love the New Jersey edge and the fact too, that Jersey girls don't pump gas. We Ohio girls do. But...our corn and tomatoes are better than New Jersey corn and tomatoes.
OOOOOOPs.
