Simba relaxes at the BBQ Pavilion of the Staybridge Suites in Chantilly. She is the official "welcome" dog of the hotel and likes to greet incoming pet-guests since the hotel is pet-friendly. She was also recently selected as the Mascot of the Pet Parade for the Dulles Regional Chamber's Chantilly Day on May 12. Simba is 13 years old and a two-time cancer survivor. — Carl Brown, Chantilly
