“Dear PoPville,
I just wanted to let you know that I went to the 11th and R st NW USPS blue mailbox and someone put adhesive in the top of the mailbox. It wasn’t extremely visible but my mail got stuck multiple times and I had to pry it off. I luckily caught this and was able to try to shove my mail in (took 4 tries) but it looks as though someone is trying to steal mail and I wanted to make sure people are aware to double check to see if their mail actually gets placed in mailboxes.”
Ed. Note: We’ve spoken about receiving mail troubles here.

“Dear PoPville,
We were longtime customers of wagtime with our rescue who had bad separation anxiety. Wagtime’s website now auto forwards to Dogtopia and there is no mention of wag 2 location. Did wagtime just sell, or go bankrupt or…? Curious if you can find more info. Our family and many other customers had prepaid packages with them too and have received no communication since they closed for the pandemic. If nothing else it would be helpful to know what happened.”
