I agree most pet owner's do the right thing.

Most people like to take their dog for a walk and get some exercise at the same time.
And most pet owners are responsible and respectful.
But there are always a few "bad apples".

I agree there aren't enough dog parks in TV.
There is only one small dog park in Bonita on a hill to serve the huge dog population between CR 466 and 466A.
I'm not saying it's right, and I don't personally do it ....
But the absence of dog parks is why most people walk their dogs at the postal stations.
We pay to take our two dogs daily to a private dog park for off leash playtime.
But not everyone wants to spend their time getting in a car and driving their dog to a private dog park which is not golf cart accessible.
The Villages provides tennis courts and baseball diamonds and pickleball courts and many golf courses.
Dog parks have been overlooked for this city that calls itself pet friendly.
