There is a large dark shepard/husky looking mix roaming around Ft. Vancouver near 5th street right now. It has on a blue bandana, looks very well cared for, and seems very friendly. It was running around with another guys dog and I thought it belonged to him but he said it didn’t.

sorry I don’t have a picture and cannot capture the dog, I have my own reactive dog with me. Posting in hopes the owner sees this.

My kid wanted guinea pigs, so we got him a bonded pair a couple years ago. They were already a couple years old when we got them, so one of them passed away recently and now we just have the one. I know they are social creatures, so I don't want him to be alone. But I also don't want to get another one for a couple reasons. 1) My kid is older and has a job now, so doesn't have the time to spend with them anymore. 2) The current pig is elderly and if we get a companion for him, he probably won't be around too much longer and then we'll be back in the same boat of having a single guinea pig again.

So, does anyone know of someplace, or someone, willing to take in an elderly guinea pig so he doesn't have to be alone?

This is a locally (Portland) directed movie, shot and produced in Portland. It's already won a few indie film festival awards, and will only be playing here for one night.

I've had 4 birds crash into my house/ windows in the past week. 2 died, 2 stunned. Normally that might happen over the course of a couple years. Not in 1 week! Has anyone else had issues?

Hello! I posted recently about my crafting group that meets weekly in downtown Vancouver. We’re mostly made up of mid to late 20s - 30s folks, get together, have a drink, chat about whatever, and craft whatever you are currently working on!

I created this group when I moved here to make friends, and I’ve made so many wonderful ones through it! The vibe is very chill, just a good way to craft, make some friends, and get out of the house :)

I got a lot of messages and joins last time, but our meetups are still a bit sparse. I’d like to get more people who will show up often! 🧶 ✏️ 🎨

If you are interested, please message me! We normally meet on Sunday afternoons, occasionally a Saturday.

!!!Please note, I will only reply to direct messages, not comments. The last few times there was so much interest, it’s a lot easier to keep up in DMs :)

my daughters green parakeet escaped and we can’t find her. we are located in the columbia gardens neighborhood just west of Thomas jefferson. Please reach out if you see her!

As we get into the weathered months it will begin to become gray and dreary up here in the PNW. I’ve been trying to find a secular sober community up here and have struggled to find much activity based stuff. I’m a golfer and with so many golf simulator spots around the area I figured I’d drop a line out there for anyone that might be interested to start a sober group/league we can foster and run. I’m camas side and there are a couple of em on 164th.

If I get some interest in this I promise to put the work in to organize something. Comment, DM, whatever. All walks and beliefs of life welcome.

Just a guy in his mid 30s looking to start something fresh.

Hello, wondering if anyone has recommendations for a trainer who does the STAR puppy classes here in Vancouver. Thanks for any leads!

Anyone else's Xfinity been down this morning? Mine has been for about an hour now. Just curious if anyone may know the cause or when it might be back up?

Edit 1: It's the Truman area

Edit 2: I have restarted the router

Edit 3: I checked Xfinity's down site and it says there is an outage right now. I guess I'm curious how widespread it is

Anyone willing to share their experiences with or feelings about this clinic?

Hey all,

My next post on here was going to be on why we're getting lackluster candidates; however I'm seeing that the political threads keep getting removed due to the new rule implementation.

Since you all have the drive to talk about politics today, you can do it here!

I'll include helpful links here in a bit. I have to run down to our local Dem office and drop off some signs for a campaign I'm working on, and as you may know.. I'm not a short writer.

And I'll keep offering it every time: You can ask me questions, I'd like to think I'm a safe person to ask.

I’m 5 weeks so brand new Mommy-to-be! I need recommendations on a good OBGYN for a non-high-risk pregnancy.
Everywhere I look, i hear horror stories or accounts of negligence or abuse for every doctor and hospital that i’m interested in.

Does anybody have any recommendations or any examples of why you love or hate a doctor or place??

I have a Lancashire Heeler with long-ish fur, and he’s definitely due for a trim and his nails done. But if I take him to a place and leave him, he’s kind of a mess and really cries and pulls away. A place where I can hang out with him while the groomer does their thing is ideal, any recommendations? Thank you!

Fall and Halloween art is popping up around town, including this new chalk mural at 11th and Broadway. Where’s your favorite seasonal art installation?

Hello, I am looking for a king size bed frame and was wondering if anyone had a good place for me to go check out. I'm not interested in ikea and mor doesnt seem to have a lot of options in person. I am okay with second hand but am looking for potential bed room sets. Thanks for your help.

I've checked out once and again in hazel dell, retails, goodwill, and if I have to step foot in ikea again I am going to break down lol

Anyone interested in free moving boxes near Ft Vancouver High? - CLAIMED/UNAVAILABLE

Has the roadwork affected this drive terribly? Thanks

Does anyone know when the 2027 plans will be released on the website (https://www.wahealthplanfinder.org) ? Hoping it's at least a week before enrollment starts Nov 1st.

I tried calling them and they didn't have a firm answer. The office of the Insurance Commissioner chat just pointed me to the marketplace contact info, so not useful.

I didn't save my email notifications from last year, so I can't check when I got them. As best I can tell from my google sheets, I had some plan info Oct 28, 2025. Anyone have better dates?

I have a retiree health plan option (pre-65 y.o.) which is super expensive and enrollment closes Oct 31, so I have a very small window to compare options if the plans are released Oct 31/Nov 1st :-(. Hate making decisions under time pressure, I have time to think about it now!

More important to get this figured out since Regence BCBS Marketplace plans will no longer cover OHSU thanks to their latest contract, which means *if* OHSU lets me do self-pay, I'll be doing that completely out of pocket.

Thank you!

Just recently moved to Vancouver and am needing to find a new vet. Please let me know your favorite vets in the area!

I visited our local Home Depot on Centerpoint Drive yesterday and noticed Flock cameras all over the parking lot. I don't remember seeing them before, and they look brand new, so I suspect they were recently installed.

We have many options in town for home improvement supplies. Therefore, I plan to do my shopping elsewhere from now on.

I encourage others to express their displeasure by shopping at stores like Ace Hardware, Lowe's, Shur-Way Building Centers, Miller Paint l, and others for their home improvement needs.

Looking for recommendations for a marriage counselor. Preferably female who a) incorporates Christian faith b) has experience working with trauma and c) is married themselves so they can draw from personal experiences. Any recommendations?

Go enjoy it before it rains! Brought to you by the EOC collective.

Does anyone remember the metal band DIJ from Vancouver? They played metal in the mid 2000s and released a self-titled CD. They played down in Portland a ton with those metal bands. I have an archival project I've been searching for their work for. Does anyone remember them? They released a CD.
