Guess TV really has gone to the dogs. So, when do we get a kitty center?

What, you haven't trained the dog to go get the paper?

I hope they provide enough spaces in the barking lot.

Kitties wouldn't lower themselves to playing in common places. Can you imagine 25 cats sitting on top of kitchen cabinets, disdainfully looking down on whoever's at floor level?

He wants to chase the squirrels, rabbits, ducks, etc. around the neighborhood so I always try to keep him on leash. We also have snakes, alligators, coyotes, opossums in this area so that's probably not a good place for a 9 lb Chihuahua/terrier to be loose.

I hear this is in the first section of the paper today.

I just read this thread and your post to Fireboy and he is

Biggins and Lollipop are waiting anxiously to hear more details about the Atlas Recreation Center for Pets.
I assume it will be in Fruitland Park?

I did not see any dog park on the plat map that has been posted on TOTV.
Why assume it will be there?

It is mentioned in an article about the Morse family's plans for the Villages in the front section of the May 15, 2014 paper. No mention of place or when it would open.

We went to the meeting...yes a doggie park for you folks who have them. I think they showed a plat but it was hard to see on the screen provided. Not sure exactly where it's going to be located...somewhere off Morse to the south??!!
