Are dogs allowed on golf courses in the Villages?
Just curious: I have never had a dog, and actually have no serious plans to get one (I travel a lot), but, just out of curiosity, I'm wondering: If I had a well trained dog, would it be okay by Villages rules for me to take him in my golf cart to a golf course in the villages, and leave him in the cart as I get out to play each hole? I do know that it would be a mistreatment of the poor animal to leave him home alone while I go off to play. My wife is not here with me, so I have no one to leave the animal with.

I am curious. Why don’t you think you can leave a dog at home alone for a couple of hours?
My lab is perfectly fine by himself for 4-5 hours if necessary. He was crate trained as a puppy and has never, ever had an “accident” in the house. We also do not feel the need to take him everywhere we go. |

No...not even that.............sigh. Most of us like dogs very much but methinks that perhaps our collective legs are being pulled???? |

MOST people who have dogs have no problem leaving their dogs home for several hours every day. Part-time jobs, or families where each member has scattered hours so the pooch gets to see someone and get their necessary walks mornings, suppertime, and bedtime. Do you bring your dog into the doctor's office when you get your yearly checkup? Do you bring your dog into the supermarket? Do you bring your dog inside restaurants? Are you one of those people who has a pet, and pretends it's a service animal so you can get around the rules that MOST people have no problem abiding by and respecting, without any harm coming to their beloved pet? |
Moot point?

I never thought I'd see the day that I'd welcome a dog thread as a nice diversion.

My dog doesn't care to play golf but he sometimes drives for me when I've had a few adult beverages on the course. Simple fix by getting a spectator sticker for the cart when you sign in at the starter shack.:coolsmiley:
