Hi friends! Reef the fox here with your weekly “Reef’s Report.” I hope everyone saw the amazing story about Pawsitive Beginnings on Channel 10 last week. Jacey Birch did an incredible job truly highlighting how important it is to boycott the fur industry.

You may have also noticed I had the week off last week from writing for the Upper Keys Weekly. That’s because our new friend, Zack Woltanski, wrote a great feature on the work my mom is doing, partnering with Kinder in the Keys and the Florida Keys Children’s Shelter. I suppose my mom, Nicole Navarro, deserves some attention and recognition every once in a while. It can’t be “all Reef, all the time.”

This may be a little premature, but since I know award season has started in the Florida Keys, I am considering throwing my name in the running again for “Best Local Celebrity” in the Best of Upper Keys later this fall. What do you all think? Can I win two years in a row? I mean, I don’t think anyone expected a fox to win last year but my loyal fans proved everyone wrong by voting me right on through to the winner’s circle. You can let me know what you think by shooting me an email at reef@pawsitivebeginnings.org. I mean, I think it would be cool to take home the title two years in a row; then I can retire, so to speak. 

We have some fun happenings going on in the Upper Keys starting tonight. MarrVelous Pet Rescues is having its “Yappy Hour” event on Thursday, Aug. 3 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Islamorada Brewery & Distillery. There will be raffles and retail items available, as well as some of their adoptable pups. Bring your four-legged friends for a “yappy-good time.” Side note, my mom had the chance to meet Elsa the dog the other day. Elsa is being fostered in the Upper Keys but is available for adoption through MarrVelous. She was found as a stray; she’s a 2-year-old Dutch shepherd mix and mom said she is as sweet as can be. I am not sure if Elsa will be there but if she is, tell her Reef sent you.

Anywho, that’s all for this week. Stay up to date with all things fox by heading to our website, pawsitivebeginnings.org where you can find all the links to our popular social media accounts. 

Until next time, Reef, over and out!

Reef the Fox
Reef was born on a fur farm on or around March 28, 2021. He was able to be rescued when his mother and siblings started to reject him. Reef is missing toes on his front, right paw and the tip of his tail is missing due to injuries sustained in his short time on the fur farm. Reef arrived at Key Largo on May 6, 2021 by Nicole Navarro, of Pawsitive Beginnings Inc.
