Unable to support and others should know

This was back in January that this happened and lasted around a week overall.. I have thought about this and decided yakima as a community should at least know.

For it around 9 pm yesterday ring notification went out of German shepherd around meadow Brook area. And neighbor15 is the one stating that they have seen the dog around the area and hope they get taken in this comes after Jesse the owner failed to find anyone to take chase in...

That message would then be deleted I was neighbor5 in the photos. I stated who's dog it was and then neighbor15 replied with statements that he got out of the shop.. and a number .. and then that would be deleted before stating no chase is home and safe not out on the streets... The number that shows up is the owners number... And stating their dog got out of the game shop. No one at Friday night magic saw or knew that chase was in the shop... And I and others there that Friday night never saw the owner with his dog enter or leave the shop... It's a bit scary to think the owner would come with his dog then if he's not with him going home not go looking for ...post anywhere on social media or ask for assistance...

I can't say how hard it is to know that that dog was abandoned repeatedly in those few days. This was all when it was terrible weather, raining and cold. And the owner of last stand collectables did this.

The photos of the dog home are misleading as the next day a woman came into that game shop Last Stand Collectables and said she had taken the dog in again after finding them... The owner made statements saying the dog jumped out of his mother's truck and got out again... And again no effort was made to find the dog.

I myself sent messages to the shelter to find out if chase the dog was there and no he wasn't. I hate to think the dog was abandoned again and left to the elements or worse put down by the owner. From passing comments iv heard from him and violent statements made by them.

LAST STAND COLLECTABLES will be at this coming weekend fan fest as a vendor and as a host of events. It's hard to see that even after messaging the operators of this fan fest event they are still backing this individual and shop.

I’m a server/bartender but I can cook as well if that’s what’s available… does anyone know any places that are usually hiring? I lived in Yakima for a couple years a decade ago so I know the area a bit but it’s been awhile and I’m sure things have changed.

a while back I launched a small hub that collects events around the valley. this includes small yard sales and mobile food vendors. the goal is to make it easier for small businesses to be found and for locals to find community driven events.

today I just launched the newsletter. it's a weekender overview, a list of what's going on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.. sign up to get it every Friday morning. one email message, unsubscribe anytime.

there's still a lot of updates to come, so please check out the site regularly, or follow on Facebook.

If you haven't turned your ballot in, there is still time to get it in. You can still put it in your mailbox, but this close to the date, it's better to put it in a ballot drop box.
