Arrow Kudos to Benedict VFD!

On my way home just now, the pick-up truck in front of me suddenly slams on brakes. Luckily, my brakes are good and nobody was behind me. He was trying to avoid hitting a small dog (it appeared to be a toy pinscher). The dog had a collar on but was roaming back and forth in the road like he had no idea what was going on.

Coming from the other direction, was the Benedict VFD rescue squad truck. The driver of the rescue squad truck immediately pulled over and turned on his lights. He was stopping to help rescue the dog.

It gave me a warm fuzzy feeling.

BVFD rocks.

Lets recap here????

A dog almost causes an accident in which people could have been hurt? And all we can say is "Glad the puppy did not get hurt"

Next we will be rooting for the gators in Florida to get their afternoon human snack.

Go figure where the priorities are.

I applaud all of our Volunteers in Southern Maryland.

I do remember last year at the Boys and Girls Club of Southern Maryland's Punkin Chunkin at Sereity Farms. It was an extremely hot August day. BVFD brought their tanker ofer there and used it to spray a mist for people to walk through to cool off. Believe me, it was much appreciated!

I don't know what makes you so dumb but it really works.
