“This evening while walking my pup, I ran into a woman whose dog Bunker got away a couple of days ago. (My heart is breaking for her; in her place, I’d be devastated.) Thought I’d spread the word.
Bunker is a chihuahua mix, about 10 lbs, and apparently he is a shy and skittish fellow. He was last seen around the corner of 4th and G Streets SE. Marion Park and Garfield Park are nearby.”
Ed. Note: Thanks to Michelle for putting together this list of adoptable pets. It will be featured the last Friday every month. If you are interested in submitting an adoptable pet you can email Michelle at Help.the.Pups.DC(at)gmail(dot)com
Superman – Rural Dog Rescue
Superman is an adorable 6-month old black lab mix from Rural Dog Rescue. He is an amazing pup that asked Santa to find him a loving home for Christmas. If your home might be it, Superman would fly right into your arms. You can apply to adopt Superman or any of our adoptable animals here. If you are interested in fostering one of our animals, please apply here. You can meet many of our animals every Saturday at Howl to the Chief from noon until 3pm.
Rocket Boy & Twister – Homeward Trails Animal Rescue
Rocket Boy (male tabby with white) & Twister (female tabby) are 6-month old kittens from Homeward Trails Animal Rescue. Rocket Boy is just as friendly as can be and is happy to be picked up, held, and cuddled. Twister is up for playing at any moment and loves to explore. For adoption information, please visit their Petfinder page. If you are interested in becoming a foster, please send an email here. You can also meet some of our adoptable animals at one of our events!
More great pets after the jump.
Cersei – City Dogs Animal Rescue
Drew is a playful, loving 8-month old kitten from Tails High, Inc. Drew is quite the talker, loves to play with his red mouse, chase laser pointers, and takes sitting as an invitation to snuggle. He will even hop up into bed to say goodnight and snuggle beside you as you sleep. If you would like to adopt Drew, please complete our adoption application on our website. You can also visit us at one of our upcoming events!
Leon – Washington Humane Society
Leon is a 1.5 year old pitbull mix from the Washington Humane Society. Only Leon’s intake pic was available, but he is cute as can be. He is a super sweet and very social pup that would love to spend his time with you. He is great with other dogs and loves treats (so he would be a lot of fun to teach tricks)! He is active and would like to find a buddy to take him out running or hiking. Enough good things couldn’t be said about him. You can meet Leon at WHS’s New York Avenue Adoption Center and learn about the adoption process here.

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!
Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.
Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
