“Dear PoPville,
My boyfriend is in town with his corgi and we took a bunch of buses around the city doing tourist stuff. We have a specially designed backpack for the corgi which is quite secure and seemed to fit the metro rules for “a carrier that the dog can’t escape from”.

I guess a sorta Hawks* around Town from Lisa:
“It’s him! The guy who walks down Reno Rd NW wearing a hooded white cape and carrying a parrot!”
If you spot a hawk, any interesting wildlife or celebrity skateboarder Tony Hawk, and get a good photo please send in an email where you spotted them to [email protected]. Thanks! Hawks around Town is made possible by a generous grant from the Ben and Sylvia Gardner foundation.
