When Pike Pet Pals was called to help in a recent case of dozens of dogs requiring immediate care and medical assistance Fluor-BWXT (FBP) was ready to help with an emergency donation of $2,000.
Pike Pet Pals is an all-volunteer support organization that works in partnership with the Pike County Dog Pound to care and find homes for dogs at the pound.
“Pike Pet Pals does incredible work. This recent crisis has put a real strain on the organization and we felt it was important as a member of this community to step up and help out,” said FBP President and CEO Greg Wilkett. “We hope this donation will go far in helping Pike Pet Pals get these dogs the much needed medical attention and care they need so they can find new homes.”
Since the dogs were rescued, several groups have come forward to help, but there are still more than two dozen dogs at the Pike County Dog Pound waiting for new families.
