Celebrating pets together

Baw Baw Shire Mayor Councillor Danny Goss is delighted that Council is able to deliver the popular event for the community this year. "This event is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate our pets, learn how to better care for our animals, and promote responsible pet ownership."

"Pets play such an important role in our lives, providing companionship, joy, and even health benefits. So why not join in the fun, meet fellow animal enthusiasts, and learn more about pet care and wellbeing," said Cr Goss.
