But there is no reason this had to happen. Dogs should never be allowed anywhere near water in The Villages because you don't know if a gator is lurking. I see people walking their dogs on a leash around ponds and think they are just asking for trouble. Our dogs rely on us to protect them because humans are supposed to be smarter than dogs. In hindsight I'm sure he will never allow his dog to be put in this dangerous situation again, but it all could have easily been avoided.
