October 2014 – Stray pups in our community often find their way to our Fire Station 26. They graciously held pups until owners could be found, and I was happy to provide them a crate. One pup, I went to scan, he was microchipped! He was reunited with a very happy family. I thought wouldn’t it be great if the station had their own scanner! I reached out through Facebook, to our community, and they answered ! in less than one hour, we raised the funds to purchase the scanner. Once it arrived I went with Ben to present it and demonstrate its use, and provide all the phone numbers they would need. This has helped get many pups home fast and our emergency responders back to business at hand!

May 2014 – As we all know, there are many pets that become lost, for many reasons, every day. In an effort to help, having key locations throughout the community to post flyers on, could be essential, and will keep the community tidy as well. I reached out to the community for sign donations, and Britco Signs stepped up, with a dozen FDOT approved reflective signs and posts. In scouting locations, I went to ITID, in front of the board, and made our request to place these signs at key intersections throughout the acreage/ Loxahatchee community. Not only did they approve, they installed these signs at the locations requested, where they remain for our community’s use today.
