‼️Join us in Welcoming Chief Mooney, our First Peer Support Dog for STFPD #1/Slidell Fire, this Tuesday, May 13, 2025, at 11 AM.‼️The event will take place at the St. Tammany Fire Protection District 1 Training Academy, located at 34780 South Range Rd., Slidell, LA, 70460 (Camp Villere).

Mooney is the first crisis response K9 from Thin Line Service Dogs to support a department. With May being Mental Health Awareness Month, TLSD Mooney’s arrival is especially timely.

Mooney is specially trained to assist first responders in stress management, critical incident stress, and debriefing. At 2.5 years old, Mooney is a Golden Retriever who was generously donated by Thin Line Service Dogs. We also extend our gratitude to Slidell Veterinary Hospital for providing care for Mooney. 🐾

Meet TLSD Roma!

Today, we are proud to honor and remember one of our fallen heroes, Fire Patrolman, Keith Roma. We have the privilege of naming one of our newest service dogs in training after Keith, his bravery and sacrifice.

Keith has an incredible story. He is known as the Forgotten Firefighter. On 9/11/2001 Keith answered the call and saved hundreds of lives at the World Trade Center. However, the FDNY does not recognize the Fire Patrol as part of their count for the fallen that day.

Today, and every day, we will remember Keith. We will never forget the 344th. We will work through TLSD Roma to keep his legacy alive. We are grateful to be able to do so.

Each TLSD is named after a hero. Here’s Holly’s story!

Today, we want to introduce you all to the incredible hero behind the naming of one of our newest service dogs in training, TLSD Holly!

We are also proud to continue our partnership with Hollywood Casino at Charles Town Races who has so generously offered to sponsor Holly as well. We are beyond grateful to work with them in our joint mission to help our veterans and first responders!

Oh Bleu!

At approximately 08:45am, the Troy Fire Department Troy Mich. gathered for roll call to verify all team members were accounted for. During the briefing, an unidentified suspect covertly approached the snack table and proceeded to consume all available treats, including but not limited to donuts, granola bars, and a full bag of beef jerky.

Our officers at the Troy Police Department - Troy, Michigan quickly investigated the scene and identified the suspect as TLSD Bleu. Witnesses described Bleu as "suspiciously adorable" by utilizing advanced tail-wagging and belly-rub diversion tactics to distract from the scene.
