Dog versus Alligator
I just saw a TV news report of a Villages man who wrestled an alligator that had grabbed his pet dog. I have some mixed thoughts about this, but am happy the puppy is OK. We now have a dead alligator who was only doing what was natural. I am dismayed that the man allowed his "best friend Bounce" to have free run near a body of water, not only at the time of the attack but was again without a leash at the time of the news report. The Villages covenants are clear about this; ALL DOGS must be on a leash when outside the home. This gentleman just doesn't seem to understand the requirements or simply chooses to ignore what is expected of him here in The Villages. It was totally his fault that he nearly lost his "best friend".
