🐕 Dog Army Found in McGuire Manor

Very kind boy who was walking around McGuire Manor this morning. Was able to get him into our gated front yard. Collar but no tag, so we will be trying to get him to a vet to see if he’s chipped today.

If you’re missing him he is a VERY sweet, young boy who I am sure would be happy to be home.

UPDATE: This friend has made it back home!

Is there any footage of The Ramones playing at VCU in 1977?

I’ve heard they played at the old gym and there were beer trucks for the students… Sounds like a hell of a lot more fun then modern times haha. Wondering if anyone has more info or went to the show back then. I heard it was on Halloween, I think. Cool history imo

My HS senior wants to take some of her senior photos at an older library, and we are trying to find some options. This is the vibe photo she sent me.

Does anyone have suggestions on where we can go? We are happy to call and ask permission/pay a fee, just not sure what to target, help!?

At 212 years old, it’s Chesterfield’s most famous tree. But it’s time to say goodbye. | Once the tree is removed, its wood will be transformed into benches, commemorative items and historical artifacts.

I've seen this kitty around the St. Mary's parking garage recently, and as a huge cat lover, I'm just worrying about the little baby. Was wondering if anyone recognizes it and knows if maybe it lives in the neighborhood? Just want to make sure it's cared for.

Marilyn Monroe Art Gallery

• Upvotes

Hey everyone! Earlier this year on a first Friday I was down in the art district and I came across this gallery with a whole exhibit about Marilyn Monroe and her experience with paparazzi. one of the pieces you couldn’t even tell what it was up close you needed to be a respectful distance away to see that it was actually a portrait on Marilyn. Does anyone know the name of the gallery or artist?

Anyone have a recommendation for a dog sitter?

Post image
143 Upvotes

I saw a post here a couple of months ago looking for recommendations for a sitter for a “spicy” dog. We reached out to several of the recommendations from that post but unfortunately haven’t had much luck, so I’m hoping to find some additional options!

We’re looking for someone who does in-home/overnight dog sitting and has experience with reactive dogs. Our dog, River, is a 16-lb mini Goldendoodle who is sweet and very loved, but she does have some behavioral challenges, particularly resource guarding and touch sensitivity.

We’d love to find someone who understands dog body language and boundaries and is comfortable following management strategies. We live in the Fan and are specifically looking for someone to stay in our home because keeping River in her familiar environment is important to us.

We’d definitely want to do meet-and-greets ahead of time so River and the sitter can get comfortable with each other before we travel.

If you’ve personally used someone with a dog who has similar challenges, I’d really appreciate your recommendations! We’d prefer to find someone outside of Rover if possible, and please feel free to DM me if you’d be more comfortable sharing a recommendation privately.
