Pets take expo spotlight

PET owners can learn more about their furry friends at a special council event next month.
A best-dressed pet comp-etition, displays and give-aways are just some of the drawcards for the Cardinia Shire Coun-cil’s annual ‘Pet Expo’ on 28 February.
The council’s senior local laws officer Brooke Ranken said the event provided the opportunity for pet owners to learn more about caring for their pet.
“It will be a fun day but will also be a good opportunity for owners to learn more about being a pet owner with stall holders from the pet industry on hand,” she said.
Discounted micro-chipping will be on offer for $20 per dog or cat.
Residents can also take the opportunity on the day to register their pet with Cardinia Shire Council or renew or update their registration details.
