“Dear PoPville,
Any intel on what happened with the Duncan Dog Hotel in NoMa? Google Maps & Yelp both show it as “permanently closed” but I haven’t seen any info posted anywhere about the why or when.”

“Dear PoPville,
Two armed men stole our dog Duke in an attempted carjacking on Friday 9/22 at 9PM. We are so devastated and worried for him.
Duke was with our dog sitter while we were traveling for our belated honeymoon (postponed during Covid). She was driving him home to us in Hill East when she had to pull over in southern Oxon Hill MD to adjust her GPS. Two armed men approached her car, got into the back door, and took Duke. She is very shaken but thankfully was unharmed. Duke has not been seen since.
We’re begging the community to help us find him. (more…)
