DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — While out on patrol, one of our officers met a gentleman and his dog, Brew, who was having a tough time walking on the hot pavement.
As the temperatures climb, remember that those surfaces can become dangerously hot for our beloved four-legged friends.
Seeing Brew struggle, the officer stepped in by purchasing protective boots with his own money to keep Brew’s paws safe and comfortable. He also shared a DBPD animal care package filled with donated treats and toys to brighten Brew’s Day.
Moments like these remind us that local police are dedicated to more than enforcement; they care for everyone in our community, no matter how many legs they have.
Stay safe, stay cool, and remember to check the pavement before heading out with your pets.
