People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

But this is our first time spotting an A-frame cabin.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie who is looking for her forever home. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”
