🐾 Happy #NationalFirePupDay!

Meet Sonny, a yellow Lab who serves as a therapy and peer support dog with the D.C. Fire and EMS Department and @IAFF36.

Off duty, he loves two things: walks and a good game of fetch. ❤️🔥

#OnThisDay in 1976, the #PSOB Act went into effect to provide death benefits to survivors of fallen #firefighters, law enforcement officers, and other first responders.

The federal initiative also provides disability benefits to those severely injured in the line of duty.
