I just moved out of Freeport a year ago because the rents were getting nuts. Lived there 5 years. I had a shitty landlord who kept raising rent but let the house fall apart. and kept dividing other parts of the house into more apartments. When I started living there there were 3 families. 5 when I left.

Used to say the same thing. Have had 2 awesome dogs from the humane society. There is room for reputable ethical breeders as well.

I was fostering for a local humane society and realized how much of a roll of the dice it can be. Attacked on 2 occasions by one dog. Traumatized dogs are not for everyone. Humane societies dont always make the best decisions with placement. Its okay if someone doesn't want to roll those dice.

(millennial here) We don't move to Maine to live in apartments! We move to Maine for little neighborhoods, rural cottages, land with yards, apartments are for our only city but other than that, leave them in Massachusetts. I hate this rhetoric of people being so desperate for housing so let's build some crap and sell it to developers to overprice for them. It's bullshit.

Mckosker in Amherst, nh. I'm not sure about the cost, but they have excellent temperament. I think their current litter is all yellow though, not sure if you're looking for a specific color. Great people and great dogs.

Mini Chernobyl aka the East Palestine derailment will go down as one of the most devastating events in the US ever & its barely being reported on. Not only is the air being polluted, animals are dying in the area and water is being heavily polluted killing fish is rivers & streams. The soil is also heavily contaminated which will cause many issues for crop season coming up. Just a few of the chemicals that burned for many hours include;

  • Vinyl Chloride -Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether -Ethylhexyl acrylate -Isobutylene -Butyl acrylate

Very dangerous cancer causing chemicals.

Official EPA document is linked below.

Pray for Ohio.
