Did You Lose Your Shiba Inu?

(This is NOT a pic of the actual dog, but in case you don't know what the breed looks like, I wanted to post).

I read about this on Brooklynian, and I've been sort of nauseous since with worry

WE FOUND A SHIBA INU ON 3/1: he's a sesame male (we think) about 25 pounds. We found him on President and 6th. He spent an hour under a parked car while we tried to corner. He was very skittish at first but he's calmed down since. He is even trying to mooch food off the table. He is obviously somebody's dog.

If anyone has scoop on who this dog might belong to, please get in touch with the nice peeps who found him.

Need we remind you again?...FIPS CARES. And also, this one sounds pretty darn cool:

We all witnessed the hype and momentum of millions of Americans for the election of a presidential candidate, but the real work is changing the status quo from bottom up. As Justice Louis Brandeis once said: that in a democracy, the most important office is the office of the citizen.

Change can happen right now. In our homes, amongst friends and neighbors, where everyone has the opportunity to contribute and imagine a better future. So slow down, enjoy a warm meal, make the time to remember, listen and share the things that inspire us to greatness.

Keep Ur Eyes Peeled 4 Mango

Mango, the adorable Jack Russell Terrier of Steve Tarpin from Steve's Key Lime Pies in Red Hook is missing.

He was was last seen outside Jake's BBQ and the B-61 Bar, at the corner of Degraw and Columbia Streets on Sat, Nov 22nd. Mango, apparently, isn't one to wander (and if this were me, I would be going batshit insane right now), so please keep your eye out for the little guy.
