Louisville will welcome its first two pet mayors.

The Louisville Youth Advisory Board announced dogs Arlo and Hops as the city’s first pet mayors. The election for the dogs ended in a tie, and both dogs will be appointed to a two-year term.

Arlo and Hops will be sworn in during the May 16 City Council meeting and lead the Labor Day Pet Parade on Sept. 4.

Arlo was rescued three years ago from a shelter after being surrendered and Hops is a 5-year-old, partially paralyzed terrier mix who has a mobility aid.
