[Highland Park] babysitter available
by Patricia Emory 21 Sep '11

21 Sep '11

Greetings! Thank you for taking the time to read this little post. My name is Patti and I am writing to let you know I'm available for babysitting. I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh's School of Education in May. I'm certified to teach Secondary English for grades 6-12. My plan is to substitute teach for the year. I'm not sure how often I'll be called into substitute,so I anticipate having a lot of free time. I would love spend that time with your bambinos. The ideal arrangement would probably be on evenings and weekends. I don't smoke, I love pets, and I have current clearances. I don't, however, have a car, but I live in East Liberty really close to Highland Park. Drop me a line if you need any help with your chickadees. Patti

[Highland Park] dogs
by Christy Valencheck 21 Sep '11

21 Sep '11

Hey neighborhood dog owners. I wanted to tell you that last month our dog was attacked by a neighbor's white pit bull that often gets loose and roams the 700 block of Mellon to Portland, etc. I did not feel the need to post about it, but I was just walking our dog on Portland Ave and a stray brindle pit bull came after my dog. I turned on time to see it, growled at it (lol!) and it backed off, but kept wanting to come forward. Then this angel of a man came in his car, beeped at us to get in, and he drove us to safety. If it had not been for him, I don't know what would have happened. I told the police officer sitting on negley and stanton but I know that animal control may take all day to get there. There is ONE animal control unit for Allegheny County and they don't get there for hours. The police don't take action unless there is an attack on a human. anyway, I'm really annoyed, obviously, that I don't feel we can walk our small dog safely in our neighborhood these days. But I just want to alert you to be on guard. It's not just for our dogs, but our kids and ourselves. Pepper spray is on my A list these days. peace, christy -- "It is risky to be earnest.

Hi, Our family is interested in finding a photographer to take some fall photos of us at an outdoor location (probably either Highland Park or Washington's Landing). We are looking for someone reasonably priced that also offers the photos on a CD for personal printing. Thanks in advance for any recommendations! Allison
