Henderson County – A Welcoming Place for Pets and Their People
Visitors and residents alike find that Henderson County is a welcoming place not only for them but also for their animal companions.
Any day along the streets of downtown Hendersonville, people can be seen strolling with their dogs and relaxing with their four-legged friends outside at restaurants, coffeehouses and breweries. For the comfort and safety of animals and to help keep downtown Hendersonville enjoyable for everyone, the city requires that pet owners keep pets leashed and under control and that they clean up and dispose of pet waste.
PETS AND DOWNTOWN EVENTS
Hendersonville hosts downtown community celebrations throughout the year. At many of these events – such as the Rhythm & Brews concerts and the North Carolina Apple Festival during Labor Day weekend – pets are not allowed. At the Tails in Town event, however, dog lovers and their furry friends take center stage and are encouraged to attend. The autumn celebration includes exhibitors, vendors, a costume pageant and educational sessions. Learn more at WTZQ.com/ Tails-in-Town.
