Melanie found this very cute pit bull mix on East Howard Avenue near Dairy Queen today.  He did not have a collar or a microchip, nor is he neutered.

If he’s your’s, please contact Melanie at 404-432-9554.

My name is Fikrea Tesema and I am on the Decatur high school journalism staff, the Carpe Diem. Right now I am writing a story at the school about blood donations. I was wondering if you could possibly post this on the Decatur Metro site to see if anyone has a personal anecdote about blood donation. They can either be givers or receivers that had a lasting effect either being a blood recipient or a donor. If there are any people willing to interview with me either face-to-face, phone, or email, I would greatly appreciate it. They will not be an anonymous source but they will not be on camera either. Their name will be stated in my newsmagazine story. Thank you very much for your time.
