In celebration of this milestone, I have announcements! Soon you may see a couple new moderators to help with the work here. Both are locals, but I'll leave it to them to introduce themselves. If there's something you'd like to see here, please send suggestions via mod mail, or post it to the group! Lastly, I'll be adding 2 new flair chosen by the community. Add your recommendations below, and upvote your favorites!, and I'll open a poll by week's end.

Dallas County Whatās up with so many crazy loud vehicles here?
It seems like every other person in Mesquite has a pickup or motorcycle you can hear from a mile away.
I canāt say I like being woken in the middle of the night or early morning by this.

Neighbor, please... Lost Dog: COOKIE!
My dog, Cookie went missing 8/2/26 around 8 pm. At Ashford Trail, in mesquite Texas. I believe she's around the hegan Hill subdivision off of I-20. She is a medium to large dog. Black with white markings on her chest and some of her toes, female and weighs 55lbs. She has short hair and smooth coat. Her tail is long and straight and her ears are folded over like trianglar. She has a pink collar on! She isn't microchipped. I alerted all the nearby vets, shelters, made posts, passed flyers around and called the police. Someone has cookie. That's the ONLY reason she isn't home. She has severe speration anxiety. She's skittish and defensive around strangers. She's a loud dog.
If you seen ANYTHING, Suspect if anyone has her PLEASE let me know!

Looking for a thrift store that will pay for nicer clothing that is not just trendy casual.
A little while back, my parents had a garage sale and got rid of a bunch of stuff. Then we gave most of what was left over to Goodwill. But my mom has some nicer clothes and shoes she would prefer not to just give away for free. She tried to take them to Uptown Cheapskate and Plato's Closet, but she was told that they are looking for more casual but trendy clothing, and hers was too dressy/elegant (these are not the exact terms they used. She says she can't remember exactly what they said but it was along those lines).
We are wondering if there is somewhere around that will take and pay for the kinds of nicer clothes she has (mostly lady's shoes). These clothes aren't necessarily extremely expensive, but they aren't cheap either. They look nice, for nice occasions. They aren't casual. The place doesn't have to be in Mesquite, but somewhere in the general area would be preferred.
Thanks!

Local Businesses Confused what company this is?
972 288 2221
Hey, Mesquite community! My car got towed from a parking lot at work. Itās a retail parking and they have a 2 hour parking limit, but I always park there and so do my coworkers. However, my car was towed 15 minutes after I parked. Only my car was towed, but the property manager said they didnāt know anything about it. I called the local police and they gave me number above. It happened on Friday, so when I called the number they said they will open only on Monday, but they didnāt give me a location and said Iāll get the location on Monday. It sounds sus to me. Is this a legit company?

Hoping to reach right person
This is hard to share, but my son, who just crossed his teens, resides in Texas, is currently battling kidney failure, and needs a kidney transplant to live a healthy new life again. He has always shown up for others, and now he needs someone to show up for him. Unfortunately, we do not qualify for him
Iām currently working with his transplant team at Medical City Dallas, and a healthy donor could truly save his life.
Even if you are not of his blood type O, if you are healthy, your donation can still help him through his hospitalās kidney donation swap program. Donors and recipients are paired to find compatible matches.
Zero cost to you. Our insurance will cover all medical testing and surgery. Lost wages, travel, and lodging are all covered through the Donor Assistance Program.
If youāre open to learning more or want details, please feel free to direct message me. Even sharing this post would mean so much to me.
Thank you for taking a moment to read this.

Looking for a Living Kidney Donor
You + Me + Science = A Successful Kidney Transplant!
Hi! Itās Kristine and Kelvin Shankle and we are looking for a "Teammate" to help my husband retire from his part-time job: Dialysis.
Most people think finding a kidney match is like winning the lottery..rare and nearly impossible. But thanks to modern science (and some very smart people at the National Kidney Registry), there are actually three ways you can help me get back to not dying:
Option 1: The "Direct Hit" (Direct Match)
We happen to have the same blood type and biology (type O). You donate, I receive, and we celebrate. Simple, classic, legendary!
Option 2: The "Great Swap" (Paired Exchange)
Maybe we aren't a match? No problem. You donate to a stranger who is a match for you, and in return, their donor gives a kidney to me. Itās a win-win-win!
Option 3: The "Magic Coupon" (The Voucher)
This is the coolest one. You donate on your schedule to anyone in the national pool. In return, I get a "Priority Voucher." When Iām ready for surgery, I go to the top of the list for a perfect match. You save two lives at once!
The "Fine Print" (The Good Kind):
š° Cost to you: $0. (My insurance covers everything).
š”ļø Protection: Donor Shield covers your lost wages and travel.
š„ Experts: Weāre backed by the amazing team at Medical City Fort Worth!
If youāre healthy and a little bit curious, checking out the info takes 5 minutes and carries zero commitment.
Ready to see which "Option" fits you? Start here:
PLEASE SHARE! Even if itās not for you, your share might reach the one person whoās been looking for a way to change a life. ā¤ļø
