Is there anywhere to walk them in the villages that they would be able to cool off without fishing for gators?

Probably not, whippersnapper. I believe ALL the lakes in TV are subject to having gators in them.

In Florida, where there is water, there is a good possibility of gators. The tricky devils move around through the irrigation pipes.

We back on a little "mud puddle". Before we purchased I talked to neighbors who assured me that the pond was much too small for gators. And that in six years no gators were ever seen there. Well, guess what, a gator suddenly appeared in the puddle!

PLUS...your pooches will have to have leashes while you have them out and about! TV is a doggie haven BUT the ponds and lakes are not!
