County of Kalamazoo issued the following announcement on April 12.
Happy National Pet Day!
We asked our employees to share pictures of their pets to celebrate this important day!
According to the CDC, "There are many health benefits of owning a pet. They can increase opportunities to exercise, get outside, and socialize. Regular walking or playing with pets can decrease blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and triglyceride levels. Pets can help manage loneliness and depression by giving us companionship."
