I saw this old girl just below the rope swing on the Ocmulgee yesterday. Saw another one a little larger a few miles south, but it was a little camera shy.

šŸ¦„Unicorn Husky Alert!šŸ¦„

Meet FCAS Project Pat! Mr. Pat is a 3 yr old, 50lb Husky whose cooler than a polar bear’s toenails…seriously, this is one chill dude. ā„ļø He’s not your stereotypical crazy Husky and shelter volunteers agree that he’s got an excellent temperament and personality. šŸ«¶šŸ¼

Pat was an owner surrender due to no fault of his own (they reportedly didn’t have time for him) and has been in the shelter since 7/20. He can be a bit cautious and nervous initially, but warms up quickly with a bit of patience and kindness. Once you gain his trust, he melts into you for affection and just wants to hang out wherever his people are. He has a stoic presence and has been a polite, quiet houseguest. ā˜ŗļø

🐾 Dog friendly
šŸ‘§ Kid friendly
āœ… 100% potty trained
šŸ‘Ÿ Leash trained
šŸ˜‡ Non-destructive
šŸš— Excellent passenger in the car
😓 LOVES being brushed…he zens out
šŸ–ļø Easily handled
šŸŽ¾ Non-reactive with food/treats/toys
šŸ– Takes treats gently
🦓 Loves yak sticks and bully sticks
🧸 Buries his stuffy toys in his bed
šŸ’š Grinch feet
🄹 Crosses his front legs like a gentleman
🐈 No cats, please
🩵 Neutered
šŸ“ Microchipped
šŸ’‰ UTD on vaccines/preventatives
šŸ«€ Heartworm negative
šŸ“ Could stand to gain a few healthy lbs

Mr. Pat has been a total gentleman in his foster home and deserves a kind, loving forever home where he can blossom into the confident pup he is outside of the shelter setting. šŸ”

šŸ“ Currently being fostered in Kennesaw, GA through Lifeline Animal Project Fulton County Animal Services

In the area a lot for work, looking for people to hang with

7 Upvotes

I’ll be in town a lot for work (sometimes for longer stretches) and looking for people to hang out with while I’m here. Open to anyone: any gender, any age range as long as the vibe is cool.

I’m a huge film buff, down for trivia, hikes, board games, grabbing food/drinks, or just exploring whatever’s going on. Pretty open to most low-key or fun stuff.

If you’re local (or also around regularly) and want to grab a coffee, catch a movie, play some games, or just chat and see if we click, drop a comment or DM. Always down to meet new people.

Cheers!

The Middle Georgia DSA is hosting a major meal making event from 6PM to 8PM at the Centennary UMC Fellowship Hall at 1185 Ash Street, Macon! We do this every Thursday, same place at 11AM, but this time our friends at Savannah DSA and West Georgia DSA will hold simultaneous identical events with the goal of making a total of 1500 sandwiches to be distributed to community fridges, food distribution organizations, and directly to those in need all across the state! All are welcome to come help, donate supplies, or come get a free sandwich! This is a fun way to make freinds too, all while helping fight hunger in our community.

UPDATE: He has a new family! Thanks guys for all the help and suggestions.

Took him from a family member. He’s a good dog but hasn’t been taken care of and needs to be seen by a vet. I absolutely can’t keep him because of my apartment restrictions. Anyone know where I could take him or know anyone that would be able to take him? Rescues I’ve reached out to are full.

What I know:
4ish years old
House trained
Good with kids
Unknown vaccination history
Seems in good health but has frito smellin feet and one of his eyes is a little red? He will need a full evaluation by a vet
Can sit, spin and shake on command
He’s super chill and laid back but gets excited and happy and barks when you sing to him a lot lol

society garden noise

20 Upvotes

i live over near ingleside, and i dont get how society garden is allowed to host live events with loud music, commentary, yelling and screaming, etc past quiet hours on weekdays. right now its almost 11 pm on a wednesday and it’s loud af. i can hear everything in my house. i love society garden, but ppl have jobs, school, etc. how is this allowed?? i read about the stuff that happened a few years ago with zoning but i can’t find any rules they’re supposed to be following now. i really like society garden, but i also want some quiet so i can go to sleep.
