“Dear PoPville,
My partner and I were picking up our dog from the corner of 20th and Upshur St NE and this adorable little dog that looked like Toto from the Wizard of Oz came up to us. He didn’t have a collar. He was very friendly to both us and our dog but wouldn’t let us pick him up. (more…)

Note: OP rushed to the vet but put in a call to 311 for city services to have it cleaned up – but that obviously could take a while, if ever, so if someone lives nearby can clean it up – that’d be most appreciated. And most importantly please be aware here, and elsewhere on 18th/alleys to make sure pup steers clear. If it’s cleaned up today, the same person could put more out tomorrow.
Update: “Another neighbor had cleaned most of the worst offenders up, so we removed some errant pellets. HOWEVER, there is still a lot of it on the ground in harder to access locations in the rear/alley of 1777 T St NW. @HumaneRescue has been called as well.”
