Every dog has its day. It’s an adage that was certainly true for pups and their pals during Vi at Aventura’s recent Dog Park Grand Opening. Although the grassy areas, wide open spaces, and comfortable benches were the talk of the community, it was the camaraderie and friendship between 60 Vi residents and their dogs that was felt beyond the glossy new fences. The afternoon included a visit from the Aventura Police Department K-9 Unit, an opening cheer by The Viva Girls (Vi’s very own cheering squad), and a performance by resident Nancy Bloom and her show dog, Parker.
Vi at Aventura, the luxury senior living community located in the heart of Aventura, is dedicated to enhancing the lives of its residents through mind, body, and spirit. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the bond between people and their pets can increase fitness, lower stress, and bring happiness to their owners. Some of the benefits of pet ownership include decreased blood pressure, decreased cholesterol levels, and decreased levels of loneliness.
“Pets are part of the family here at the Vi,” says Renee Garvin, Vi at Aventura Executive Director. “The residents are thrilled about the new dog park, which provides another great spot for them to socialize with their neighbors.”
Vi at Aventura is located at 19333 West Country Club Drive. To learn more about the Vi at Aventura lifestyle, visit https://miami.viliving.com, call 305-912-0613, or email Aventura@viliving.com.
