I just saw a small fluffy white dog running loose near the corner of Ninth St & N Cleveland St. there was a pink ribbon near the collar. Had my dog with me so couldn’t catch her.

Peekaboo! Here is my home sweet home. You need to zoom the photo out to see my cute little face and nose. Me and my siblings keep following Papa Cutie everywhere in the backyard.

Anyone who saw these two dogs running on the highway 395 yesterday afternoon… they did get back to their owner safely!! One dog had a collar with a tag and phone number and we were able to contact the owner and get them safely home! Thank you if you were someone who stopped your car to help! ❤️

Does anyone know why we are seeing posts from Arlington/Falls Church/McLean Areas on Nextdoor that are in other States e. g. Texas, etc.? I have no interest in a Turtle returning home in Corpus Christi, Texas.

Scam Alert! We got a call today from someone who said they were calling about a toll owed for use of the 66 Express lanes. Which we DO owe (long story) and they knew all about it. That made it seem VERY believable - they had details some rando in another country or state would not have. They said we could pay on the phone OR we could go to the website. The website was CLEARLY not official if you know what you're looking for, but it had a believable address and if you aren't paying extremely close attention, it's very easy to think it's legit. Be extremely careful if you're paying these tolls and only use the places referred to on the paper they mail you!

Has anybody noticed a man in a wheelchair with a red and black tent propped up playing loud music? Near N Pierce St Arlington? I didn’t show in actual picture. I only show the location because I am not sure if I am allowed to post photos of other people on here. This is a family-oriented neighborhood and parents wait for school buses at the bottom of the hill, as well as many dog walkers and joggers takes this route every morning. Here is the location on where he is sitting:
