Not for us. When we saw that large dogs were allowed at the Town Squares, we were hooked. As we looked at resales in different Villages, everywhere we looked, happy people were walking dogs. And then we found the private dog park, Doggie Doo Run Run, which is heaven sent. So we have Biggins and LolliPop to thank for our decision to buy in TV.

We are so totally in agreement. We only considered TV because of what Barefoot said AND the CYV fenced yards. Then TV just kept looking better and better. (This coming from people who bought a motorhome to vacation with their dogs.) We acccommodate to live better WITH our dogs and we aren't going to chang that in retirement. So happy we found such a great place where we can do that. The 2 dog policy is a hard enough adjustment for me to wrap my head around, but we loved the other aspects of TV enough to do it.
