If you haven't yet had the pleasure of meeting Paul "Brownie" Brown, owner of Wally Pets Food & Supplies, I strongly suggest you take the opportunity to do so next Wednesday.

He is a white standard poodle. He's bigger now than in this picture. He has a blue collar but no tags on. If you see…
Remember last year, when those two cute Boxer pups were dognapped from someone's yard? Or last month, when Stella was stolen right outside of the Durn Good? Thankfully, both stories had happy endings, and the dogs were returned to their owners; but now we're hearing stories around the neighborhood about people attempting to take dogs that are leashed up in front of businesses. Wally Pets owner Paul Brown told us about two separate incidents of attempted dog theft. The first one…

Thanks to everyone for their support and eyes-out looking for Stella, the pooch dognapped from the Durn Good Grocery on Wednesday. Still no word on Stella's return, but Jasmine sent in this picture she happened to snap of the little girl earlier this week. Keep your eyes peeled!
