Town’s Dog Mayor Dies

by Earl Morningstarr

Junior Cochran, the mayor of Rabbit Hash, Kentucky has died at the age of twelve. A little young for a mayor you might think, but that’s 84 in dog years!

Yes that’s right, Junior Cochran was a black labrador. Junior was voted mayor of Rabbit Hash in 2004 by a landslide victory after receiving over 3,000 votes, and making him only the second dog to ever become mayor of the town.

Sadly Junior passed away on Thursday 29 May, just two days before his 13th birthday. An election has not yet been announced, but previous contenders Charlie the Chicken and Marty the Mule are rumoured to be preparing their campaigns.
