and if you are in a villa and do not have any grass anymore, then dig up some of that stone mulch and plant some lawn specifically for the dog. thank you.
We need a club in the Villages for dog hating lawn lovers. Imagine the fun they could have inspecting lawns for little brown spots and misplaced poopies. And, these activities would keep them off the golf courses, out of the bowling alleys, away from the town squares, absent from the activities of the 1,000 other clubs and sponsored activities at the Rec centers ... leaving the rest of us with more time to enjoy ourselves. In the unfortunate event that one should pass from their ranks, their beautifully manicured lawns can be used to cover their gravesites. They say you can't take it with you, but snuggling eternally with one's perfect lawn is surely a reward for time well spent here on earth.
