“Dear PoPville,
I wanted to send an update to this story you posted about a woman in Navy Yard yelling at dog owners about them not feeding their dogs enough. I had an encounter with this same lady in Dupont Circle today (Tuesday). She held up traffic to slow down and yell out her car windows at me that my dog was “acting that way” (barking at a squirrel, ha) because I underfeed my dog. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
My husband and I were sitting outside of McClellan’s at Connecticut and Florida around 6, 630 yesterday. A woman ran sprinting by chasing after her dog who’d gotten loose. The dog bolted across Connecticut and seemingly disappeared into the depths of the neighborhood. We never saw the woman come back with her dog. As a fellow dog-owner, my heart went out to her. I was wondering 1) Did she catch him? 2) If not, is there anything I can do to help search for him? Happy to help, if she wants or needs it.“

On Saturday around 2:30 pm you were crossing the street from Logan circle to P st heading west. You had what I believe to have been walking a corgi or corgi mix. I was biking through the circle and came way too close to you and your poor dog. You had to hold them back for a moment. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
My work-from-home arrangement from COVID will be continuing indefinitely, and I’d love to volunteer as a foster dog parent in DC, however I have a fairly small studio apartment and I’m not sure if I’d qualify. Have other readers in studios been successful in becoming a foster dog parent in DC? And if so, which organizations are recommended?”
