If it really bothers some, can you say you didn't see that it was pet friendly? I googled non pet friendly communities and I couldn't find any, just landlords that do not want pets. Maybe there is a need for a no pets allowed village. I am not sure what the resale value would be. Are we just venting, or is it really an issue. There are properties outside Tv that are on big pieces of land where you won't have to deal with walking where a dog uses the bathroom, or have to watch dog owners picking up feces. When you buy in a place like this, be prepared, it is all part of sharing spaces. Really? We are going to take the time to designate a right of way area that would be appropriate?
Do you count how many times birds and squirrels unload on your property!
Dogs are wonderful living creatures that can bring love, joy, and companionship!

Pammy, My dog is truly my best friend. To me a pet friendly community means they are allowed. the sad thing here is that while you can't up a fence, alternative spaces are not created that would be dog friendly. I totally agree on that.
I gave up fencing when I decided not to buy a CYV; that was my choice.
Obviously this IS an issue or these threads would not go on and on. If one's head is not in the sand, that is quite clear.
As a pet owner. I accepted the reality of not having a fence and the challenge of toileting the animal responsibly. As a homeowner, I expect others to toilet their animals elsewhere without making excuses. I share your joy at the companionship of the pet, and that has nothing at all to do with respecting other people's property. That I enjoy my pet has no bearing on whether the neighbor should enjoy a load in their yard.
