Dog Parks / Groomers

[WABSGB]

Greetings,

We are new to The Villages and have a few questions regarding our lil baby Mandy.

Are there any other dog parks other then the one located next to 441 near the golf cart bridge.

We are needing a recommendation for a groomer with experience with Bishon's.

Lastly, is there a listing of pet friendly eating establishments.

Thanks, Sam

I can tell you that Lady Lake Grooming does a fabulous job on my standard poodle. Might be worth checking out.

There are three dog friendly leash-free parks in The Villages. These parks are fenced in play areas for both large and small dogs so the dogs can run freely and socialize with other dogs. These parks also have doggy amenities like water and waste stations and people amenities like benches and pleasant scenery. The Villages Dog Parks are:
•Paradise Park – east side of golf cart bridge
•Mulberry- Belle Meade Circle adjacent to the fitness trail near the Village of Springdale
•Brinson/Perry – 1231 Bonita Boulevard

Hours: 7am – Dusk

Dog Park users must be 13 years of age or older and must have their Villages Resident ID card or a valid guest ID card and a photo ID. Guest 13-18 years of age must be accompanied by a Village resident or guest 19 years of age or older.

Further information is available at the entrance to the dog parks or call 674-1800.

Also there is doggie do run which is off property which you pay a fee to use.
