I will take my dog wherever he is legally allowed, if I deem it appropriate for my dog, safe for my dog , and a place my dog will enjoy. I will never take him anywhere he isn't allowed, ever. If a person doesn't like to have dogs around him, he should frequent places where dogs are not allowed. Or else work to change the laws.

I don't mind at all following the laws. But I reserve the right to engage in activities that the laws allow for my dog if I choose. Work to change or stay away.
If buyers don't like seeing pets in public places in TV where they are permitted, why do they choose to live in a pet friendly community where two dogs per household are allowed? Why do people complain when people take their pets to the Town Squares where they are permitted? Why do people complain about dogs on restaurant patios when they are permitted to be there?

Most people in TV love animals. If they have pets, they clean up after them and are respectful of others property.

It's like moving to The Villages and complaining that there are too many golf courses.
