Boyk Law Cares About Lucas County Dogs
It’s no secret that our firm loves dogs, especially the pampered Pawyers in our Holland office. We also care about the less fortunate dogs at Lucas County Canine Care and Control (LC4), and we are committed to helping them. Our Charles Boyk Law Cares program has made multiple monetary and equipment donations to the shelter. We purchased, built, and delivered 20 raised pet beds, that evenly distribute the dog’s weight so that there are no pressure points on hips, shoulders, or elbows. The beds are easy to clean, but most importantly, the dogs don’t have to sleep on the cold floor of a kennel.
With the help of clients and friends, we raised additional funds and collected donations of treats, and blankets to create holiday care packages for all of the shelter dogs which were hand-delivered by Boyk Law personnel on Christmas morning.
Our firm also beautified the adoption area of the Lucas County shelter. The Charles Boyk Law Cares Adoption Center at LC4 provides an attractive area where those who adopt dogs can take photos with their new pups to share with family and friends on social media, and hopefully, encourage others to adopt LC4 dogs as well.
One of our Boyk Brief podcast episodes featured Kelly Sears, Director of Lucas County Canine Care and Control, and Anna Brogan, their Community Engagement Manager, who talked about their mission and the challenges they face.
Boyk Law shared news about the shelter and featured adoptable dogs via our social media channels to help more of them find a forever home. Overall, more than a thousand dogs were adopted from the shelter in 2023 and almost nine hundred more were returned to their owners. LC4 also provided $104,000 in emergency medical care to dogs in need.
The Charles Boyk Law Cares program will continue our support of Lucas County dogs in 2024 and also explore ways to help shelter in our other office communities. If you want more information about the program, visit our website at www.charlesboyk-law.com/charles-boyk-law-cares/
