Friends of Flynn

You may already be familiar with a third Fagan family member who spends almost every day at Shamrock Animal Hospital along with his new little brother, Reagan.  Flynn is the Golden Retriever who has that “sixth sense” about when and where to jump into action.  There is not a day that goes by that we don’t have to explain to someone that “Flynn’s a leaner”.  Leaning against your legs or shoulders is just his way of saying hello, that he loves you (unconditionally, of course!) and that he is there to make you happy.

He rolls into the lobby at just the right time to give an extra little bit of love by leaning into the owner who has just received some unsettling news about their cat or sits with the dog owner who may have just ended a decade-long love affair with their trusted companion.  On crazy, unexpectedly busy days, he is there with a smile and his own form of encouragement for the Shamrock team.

The next time you are checking out at Shamrock Animal Hospital, you may be asked, “Would you like to join the Friends of Flynn?”

Life delivers many unexpected events, including unexpected events with our pets. These moments often leave owners with significant decisions to make when urgent, emergency care is needed and they can’t quite figure out the financial side of the care that their pet needs.  That’s where Flynn’s friends can help to support our community.

When checking out at a store, you might be asked if you would like to “round up” to support a particular cause or charity.  Banks often have “keep the change” programs to help their account-holders learn how small amounts of money can turn into significant savings.

Simply put, being a Friend of Flynn is simply about rounding your invoice up to the next dollar. If you’ve tried it, you probably know the impact of 16 or 53 cents, when it is done 20 or 30 times a day. Proceeds will be used not only to assist the Shamrock community when those out of the ordinary situations can create a financial distress, but also to support animal-related organizations throughout central Florida.

Check back here (News & Announcements Link) often and we will keep you updated on the impact that the entire Shamrock family is having on our community.
