The Denison Police Department Animal Services Division has partnered with the Denison Animal Welfare Group (DAWG) and a local Eagle Scout to install a public microchip scanning station in front of DAWG’s facility.

The station allows members of the public to scan a found pet or animal at any time, day or night. It includes step-by-step instructions on how to scan for a microchip, look up the microchip number, and contact the pet’s owner.

This initiative is intended to reduce Animal Services calls for loose animals, decrease shelter intakes, and empower the community to assist in reuniting pets with their owners in a safe and responsible way.

The Eagle Scout designed, built, and installed the station as part of his Eagle Scout project. The idea was presented to the Denison Police Department in September and is now almost ready for public use.

When we think of 9/11, we remember the bravery of firefighters, police officers, medics, and countless volunteers. But among them was another group of heroes—search and rescue dogs. With their sharp senses and loyal hearts, nearly 300 dogs worked at Ground Zero, the Pentagon, and the Flight 93 crash site.

They crawled through rubble, balanced on jagged steel, and searched tirelessly for survivors and victims. Beyond their lifesaving efforts, they offered something equally powerful: comfort. Exhausted first responders and grieving families often found solace in simply hugging them.

Some became unforgettable symbols of hope. Bretagne, the last surviving 9/11 search dog, searched tirelessly in New York. Roselle, a guide dog, led her blind owner down 78 floors of the North Tower to safety. Apollo, with the NYPD K9 unit, narrowly survived falling debris yet kept working.

Handlers spoke of their unbreakable bond with these dogs—partners who trusted each other with their lives. When hope seemed lost, handlers even staged “rescues” so the dogs could experience the joy of saving someone, lifting spirits on both sides of the leash.

The dogs of 9/11 remind us that heroism isn’t only human. Their loyalty, courage, and compassion carried light into the darkest days.

DOG OWNERS: PLEASE don't walk your dogs in the heat of the day. Stick to sunrise or closer to sunset.

We are entering our longest/hottest stretch of summer with highs near 100° for the next couple of weeks. Walking on the sidewalk is a no-no with concrete temps up to 130° under the sun. Walking on asphalt is borderline criminal with puppy paws burning quickly on 140°+ temps.

If you can't put your hand on the ground without feeling pain, your pups can't walk on it. This has been a PSA

"Hey, human moms and dads—here’s what happens to my paws when you take me out in the blazing sun ☀️ and the pavement is scorching! I sweat through my paws, and when it's this hot, I can't cool off because my paws are burning. Skipping a walk won’t hurt me—let me chill inside and take me out once the sun goes down." 🐾
If you spot someone walking their dog on hot pavement, kindly suggest they try it barefoot for the rest of the way. They might just understand how much it hurts.
Big thanks to 8 Below Husky Rescue for this important reminder 🙏.
