Greenpoint Lost & Found
As I was knocking about the Garden Spot today I found two fliers regarding lost and found pets. I am going to pass them along here— along with a few notes.
I stumbled upon this flier for a found pup (Bichon Frise? Maltese?) on Noble between Franklin and Lorimer Street. No details are given other than he (or she) was found on Lorimer Street. If this is your dog or you know to whom he (she?) belongs please contact the 94th Precinct at the above-listed telephone number.
I found this flier at 87 Dobbin Street. Once again no details are given. However, if you have happened upon a kitten resembling the one depicted in the above photograph around the intersection of Dobbin Street and Norman Avenue, chances are pretty good it is this guy (or girl). I suppose it goes without saying— but I am going to say it anyway: if you have seen the above kitty or know of his/her whereabouts please call his (or her) people at the above telephone number. Thanks!

From The New York Shitty Photo Pool: Part II
This item (which I presume hails from either Dobbin or Banker Street) was the second thing I gazed upon over my morning coffee today. To see the first one click here. Both come courtesy of algul siento who has made this otherwise dreary day much more provocative for yours truly.

Greenpoint Photo Du Jour: Dog Lover’s Special
This dapper dog can be found on Dobbin Street and struck me as the perfect way to kick off an announcement for a very nifty upcoming event at Unleash Brooklyn: Looking for Calvin and Hobbes by Nevin Martell. Here’s the 411 as gleaned from Unleash Brooklyn’s Facebook announcement:
