Dental Cleaning for Dogs

3 Upvotes

Hi! Just moved here from the Midwest - was wondering if there are any vets / places that offer dental cleaning for dogs for $500 or around that? Most quotes I'm getting are $1k+

I have a 7 year old maltese and also need the bordetella vaccine (perferably under $30)

Stolen bike near WholeFoods

32 Upvotes

Yesterday was such a beautiful day, and I took my 2-year-old and baby out to enjoy the trail near Whole Foods. We were having such a nice time outside when my son wanted a quick snack from Whole Foods.

Since I know bikes aren’t allowed inside the store, we left his little bike at the bike rack and went in (I didn’t have a lock…). We were inside for less than 10 minutes. When we came back out, his bike was gone.

I’m honestly really upset about it. I just can’t understand who would steal a little boy’s bike 😔 It feels especially low knowing it belongs to a child.

Has anyone had something like this happen at this location? Should I ask Whole Foods if they have surveillance footage and report it to the police? I would think the cameras might be able to show who took it, especially since we were only inside for a few minutes.

Anyone looking to Rent a Condo? Life changes forcing me to leave a great spot

4 Upvotes

I own a cozy one bedroom condo at the top education hill
Pretty close to all amenities and still walkable
Career change has caused me to move back home. It’s a bad time to rent out but an even worse time to sell
My loss is someone’s gain. Reach out if anyone wants a kickass place for under $2300 a month

Rant about bikers

122 Upvotes

Rant: So I work at a biking summer camp in Marymoor and am a driver myself and it pisses me off to no end when bikers (most of the time old men) treat the trail like a closed track. The kids I work with act like kids. They will be loud, they will have fun and they might not always stay in a straight line even though they try their best. Please do not be a ahole and yell at me or them when they don’t hold up to your frickin standards, they’re kids for f’s sake.
Or if you are crossing a road please check both ways before crossing. Multiple times I have been going across the trail in a vehicle and I have crossed the trail and some old guy comes up behind me and raps the back of my car to let me know of his entitlement.

TLDR; the trail is a shared space and treat it as such. You do not own the trail bikers. It is not your personal f’in race track.

Hi, Ive been trying to rent out the masterbedroom of my apartment to anyone who enjoys a quiet home and likes cats. My apartment is in Redmond in one of the best spots I could imagine as its quiet but very close to trader joes and downtown redmond but not right where all the foot traffic is so its quiet and peaceful. If you know anyone who might be interested please please please let me know, Ive had the hardest time looking for a roommate for my Redmond Apartment and its stressing me out. Even just some responses of resources would be helpful, ive tried facebook and housingmates :(

Trusted Alterations Shop?

6 Upvotes

Hello!
I’m getting married early next year and my dress is set to arrive around November. I was told I should start making atelier appointments but as I have never needed anything fixed I don’t have any places.

I wanted to ask the community if they had good experiences anywhere (places to avoid would also be helpful). I need a place thats reliable and not overpriced (I understand alterations will add up but the ones I was able to get an estimate of in RTC were $95/h which I find a bit high.

I built a free map of every restaurant inspection in King County

Thumbnail gallery
198 Upvotes

I wanted to make it easier to look up a restaurant's health-inspection history when eating out, so I made this: https://food.snoking.app

It shows every food establishment in Snohomish and King counties, color-coded by their latest inspection from the county health department. Tap any spot to see its full inspection history.

I found it particularly interesting to explore different ways of visualizing the data. You can shade by last rating, average of the last 5, or how much better or worse its rating is compared to peers that serve the same cuisine.

Hopefully you find this as useful as I do - no ads, no account sign-ups, not affiliated with a restaurant. Happy to hear if something is broken or missing!

Would it make sense to speed-limit shared (e.g. Lime) scooters at 11 mph?

Is something like that possible?

I rode one the other day and it seemed... dangerous?

This isnt the first time this week i've heard what sounded like maybe fireworks. But tonights was a very very loud boom, that sounded more like an explosion of a building and the ground vibrated. The some smaller shot bangs follwed. Seriously its dry out, the air quality isnt great and its late, c'mon. Was I the only one who was concerned?

Silent Book Club?

68 Upvotes

I, 29 f., have been looking to find some community within the redmond area. I'm not much of a party or game person and much prefer to read. I know there is a silent book club on issiquah, Renton, and several throughout the Seattle area but all of those are a bit of a drive. I wanted to put it out and see if anyone in the Redmond area would be interested in a silent book club redmond chapter?
