Last Friday we spoke about the crackdown at Wonderland. Thanks to all who messaged about Midlands last night:
“Dear Friends, Neighbors and Dog Parents,
We deeply regret having to make this statement, but Washington DC’s Dept. of Health just paid us a visit and told us we are NO LONGER ALLOWED TO HAVE DOGS on the property until further notice. This means all dogs including Andy Pants. We are very sorry for this awful change, but we have no control over it. Write your council member, we are.
Ward 1 CM Brianne Nadeau ([email protected]) since both Midlands and Wonderland are both in her district,
Health Committee Chair Vincent Gray ([email protected]) and his committee director [email protected]
Dept. of Health Director [email protected] (cc: [email protected]).
Just put it all in the same email
Midlands & Andy”
One reader notes from the comments: “The Midlands Inspector told me that “this all stems from the Washington Post.” They supposedly put out an article or something about a complaint they received about all the dogs on patios in dc. This is what she told me.”
Ed. Note: For those who wish to debate kids in bars, you may have a refresher here, also about Midlands.

“Dear PoPville,
My wife and I are new to the Capitol Hill area and last night around 7:00 PM, our dog slipped out of our house near Lincoln Park. She was last seen near C-8th St, and we received a report of seeing her near Florida-8th later that evening.
She is a 10-lb mini Australian Shepherd with white and orange markings. Her name is Sasha, and she is EXTREMELY shy and will only come to my wife so if anyone sees her, please call Whitney at (434) 981-1218 ASAP with the location. If unable to reach her, please call Matt at (703) 587 5277.”

“Dear PoPville,
I am just wondering if you know of any DC area animal shelters that are taking in Hurricane Harvey displaced animals, looking to make room in their shelters by having volunteers foster? I know a Seattle area shelter is taking in something like 300 Hurricane Harvey animals, but I have not heard anything about the DC area’s shelters.”
From the Humane Rescue Alliance:
“With animals being relocated this week to Washington, DC from Texas due to Hurricane Harvey, the Humane Rescue Alliance (HRA) is appealing to animal lovers throughout the region who may be considering adopting a new pet to visit adoptions centers today. Dogs and cats adopted this week will clear room for arriving animals from Texas. All pets available for adoption at HRA have been spayed/neutered and microchipped. (more…)
