Owning a pet can bring joy to your life that will last a lifetime. Research shows that having a pet can reduce blood pressure and cholesterol levels as they increase exercise opportunities when you take your pet on a walk. Pets can also increase socialization and decrease loneliness and depression. Check out the CDC’s page for advice on picking the best pet for your health and well-being. All dogs located in the Hot Springs Village must be registered with the POA. The yearly fee is $11; each dog will be issued a tag attached to its collar. If you need a registration form for your dog, click here. There are leash laws for both Saline and Garland counties that encompass H.S.V., so all dogs must be leashed. You must also clean up after your dog while out on public walkways, trails, and common areas. This makes for a more pleasant experience for everyone. It is also a good idea to microchip your pets so that if they get lost, it is much easier to return them to their owners. Ask your veterinarian for more information on how to get your dog or cat microchipped.
