 LCHS would like to thank our wonderful volunteer, Nathan, for his dedicated Eagle Project!

Nathan Brzoznowski of BSA Troop 513 has achieved the rank of Eagle Scout on May 3, 2021. Nathan's Eagle Project is a Memorial Rain Garden, shaped as a paw print, in the shelter's yard.

Nathan has been involved with scouting since the first grade when he joined Pack 503 as a Tiger Scout. In February of 2016, he earned his Arrow of Light Advancement and joined Boy Scouts.

While in Scouts, Nathan earned a total of 25 Merit Badges. He has participated in many service projects such as highway clean up, Scouting for Food, and helping other Scouts work on their Eagle Projects. In 2018, he was inducted into the Order of the Arrow, scouting's Honor Society.

Nathan has held several troop leadership positions, including Den Chief ot Pack 502. He had enjoyed many scouting activities, his favorites being a weeklong canoe/backpacking trip to Boundary Waters and hiking at the Pictured Rock National Lakeshore.

Outside of Scouts, Nathan also plays baseball and football. He will be a Junior this year Merrill High School and participates in the Youth Apprenticeship Program, working for Goetsch's Welding & Machine, Inc.

Thank you, Nathan, for establishing such a beautiful garden at LCHS!

Did you know more pets go missing on July 4^th than any other day of the year? Below are some tips to keep your pets safe this Fourth of July.

• Don’t bring your pets to the fireworks

• Never leave your pet in the car during fireworks

• Don’t leave doggie doors open or pets outside in the yard

   

• Take your dog on a long walk before the fireworks

• Leave your pet at home in a safe environment

• Provide plenty of water, toys, and a safe chew

• Close windows, lower blinds, and play some soothing music

• Microchip your pets

• Keep collars with ID tags on your pet at all times

WISH LIST

Stamps & Standard Size Envelopes

Standard Size Printer Paper (White)

Cat Litter (non-scoopable/non-clumping)

KMR Milk Supplement for Kittens 

Did you know July 5th is the busiest day of the year at most shelters? Fireworks terrify many animals, even normally calm pets.

Keep your pets safe. Keep them at home, indoors wtih no possible escape routes through windows or doors. We also recommend playing soft music or leaving a television set playing in the background. 

If you are on vacation with your pet, make sure you have your pet secured in a safe area. Confirm that your pet's microchip is registered and you have an identification tag on your pet. In a pinch, purchase a collar from The Dollar Tree and write your cabin or campsite information with a phone number on it with a permanent marker.

Making sure your pet's microchip registration and identification tag have the current contact information is essential! LCHS frequently encounters microchipped animals that have a lapsed registration or old information so it is impossible to contact the owner. If you are unsure if your pet's microchip is up to date, please call LCHS and we can scan your pet's chip and register the information for free through 24-Hour Petwatch. 

If you are enjoying a fireworks display at home, try to be considerate of other animals in the neighborhood as well as wildlife. Try to avoid areas where animals may have a nest or den in order to prevent distress to wildlife. 

If you know your animal will be distressed during the firework displays, contacting your veterinarian may help. Truly severe cases may benefit from a mild sedative during the fireworks to prevent a terrified pet from injuring itself. 

There are also a variety of calming products, such as Thundershirts, that may help. You can find out more about Thundershirts at http://www.thundershirt.com
