FRANKSTON: 6000 pet lovers gather together
More than 6,000 pet lovers and their companions gathered at Ballam Park on Sunday, October 19, for The Great Pet-Together. A Frankston City Council representative said this demonstrated that Frankston is the most pet-friendly municipality in Victoria.
There was a mix of dogs, cats, turtles, horses, snakes, bees, and pigeons.
Frankston City Councillor Cherie Wanat said it was great to see The Great Pet-Together return to Frankston.
“As an animal owner, I’m proud to be part of a council that values and supports pet ownership. The Great Pet-Together is more than just a fun day out – it shows how much we care about animals in our community,” she said.
Frankston City Mayor Cr Kris Bolam (pictured), the owner of a cheeky labradoodle named Murphy, said: “Frankston is leading the way when it comes to supporting pet owners. No other council in Victoria offers the breadth of pet incentives and support programs that we do, making us the state’s most pet-friendly city.”
