Congratulations on your new home and life in TV. All best wishes! |

We were recently told by a couple of different construction companies that The Villages will not approve a birdcage with a grass floor, even though they did it in the past. And that the floors must be concrete. Perhaps the "rules" have changed. I suppose you could put down artificial grass on top of the concrete as Bogie suggested. |
First let me say that I'm not a dog owner.
Why would anyone want dog smells in their lanai? You can pick up the solids but the urine will still smell. Yes? |
Right on Russ!

Fences don't hurt anyone and should be up to the homeowner. IMO

No fences.

AGREE! NO FENCES!

NO FENCES. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

No Fences! Get an electric (underground) fence put in and you and pooch can be happy...and the neighbors as well! :welcome:

I suppose that someone would put down rocks in the doggie birdcage and hose them off several times a day. Just a guess. But I agree that idea is not an attractive idea at all. And it would probably only occur to people who are desperate for ways to contain their pets. When my spouse made it know that he wanted to sell our Courtyard Villa and move to a larger house with a huge garage, I was desolate. I never, ever thought I'd be a fan of invisible fencing. I thought it was inhumane and cruel. But I've found the Invisible Fencing works very well and has exceeded my expectations. Even when ducks waddle up from the pond in back of our house and taunt the dogs, they don't go through the boundary. They hear a beep from their collar, they don't need a correction. The guy from Dog Watch was great. He helped us train the dogs and did follow-up visits regularly. And the dogs are not confined to a small area, they can use the whole yard. (Also, I take them daily to the dog park for some real exercise). |
Bare.... slightly off topic...but, when you return to the bubble in October, will you have to re-train the pups on the electric fence?

I've found that animals can remember anything important to them. After six months in exile, my Himalyan cat (almost 18) can remember exactly where I feed her. I feed her in the bathroom, away from the dogs. When we arrive at our house in TV, she immediately goes into the bathroom and sits and stares at the empty floor until I put her food down. |
