Mayor Colbert and Ginny
“Studies show that pets can help decrease stress in their human companions, improve heart health and even help children with their emotional and social skills,” Colbert said. “Whether you own a pet or not, these stories will surely make your day.”
Submitting your pet for consideration as the Mayor’s Pet of the Week is easy! Just email Mayor Colbert: Mayor@viennava.gov with the following:
* Your pet’s name
* Type of pet (please be specific)
* Three reasons why your animal should be the Mayor’s Pet of the Week - A photo of your pet either alone or pictured with you or your family.
Each Monday at noon beginning July 4, the Mayor’s Pet of the Week will be posted on the Town’s Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter pages (@TownofViennaVA). Then, beginning in August, Mayor Colbert will select one of the weekly winners for recognition as the Mayor’s Pet of the Month in the Vienna Voice newsletter.
