At the Garland animal shelter. Dog marked for rescue only?

Went to see about a dog they had on their website shown as up for adoption. When we got there and inqured, the employee first said the dog was available for viewing and adoptable. After looking a little longer at the computer, he apologized and said the dog was marked for "rescue only" so we wouldn't be able to view or adopt it. Does anyone know what "rescue only" means exactly. That's what I thought I was there to do!?

Request from the Community

Hi all – I'm conscious that this is a big ask, but reaching out here with a plea to the Reddit and broader community. I'm desperate yet hopeful to find a donor for my needed kidney transplant. I’ve been fighting kidney failure since 2005 from my initial diagnosis and my health has now reached the stage where I am in imminent need of a transplant to live.

If you or someone you know is Blood Type O (+ or -) and willing to consider kidney donation, you’d be saving my life. Feel free to DM me and can discuss more details, donors can be located anywhere in the US and I am registered at Fort Worth Medical Center for the procedure. Additionally, if you are a different blood type (A, AB or B) you can still donate in a 'paired exchange' which would help me get matched with someone who is a blood type match.

The associated costs of evaluation, surgery, travel, and lost wages will be covered by my insurance and various programs and you will have a separate team of healthcare professionals that will evaluate you as a living donor. They will help you understand the associated risks and benefits and ensure your well-being in the eval / procedure.

Thanks again to all who are able to help / read / promote.

GarlandTX/DecorativeRealEstateCo

Has anyone experienced anything bad from “decorative real estate” in garland texas?

The owner Olivia is very weirdo unprofessional. and i got a bad gut feeling about it. Curious if anyone else has experience with this office or if im trippin’.

Of course the recent reviews and their posts are good. the super old reviews are bad and explain her weirdo attitude. But wondering if they scam people out too???

Traffic on the bridge to get 635 N.

Does anyone know what happened? We were stuck on the bridge for 15 minutes without moving. Eventually cars started driving the other way even though it’s literally one way.

Is anyone hiring or know where I can find work? I’m 11 months sober and need a hand up.

I have experience with working in kitchens and retail. I have a creative mind and would flourish in an environment the supports that. I’m on the spectrum and used alcohol for a long time to cope with that but I’ve done a lot of learning in the last year and I’m learning how to be alive. I have faced a lot of battles in my life and finding employment has been one of those for many reasons. Though I feel overcoming my battles has made me very adaptable, so I’m able to fill almost any position available given enough time.

Zoning change

Can anyone eli5 this wording below? I thought initially it may be trying to turn it into houses or something but seems the wording is the opposite.

“The applicant proposes a change in zoning from Planned Development (PD) District 85-62, Planned Development (PD) District 86-5, and Single-Family-7 (SF-7) District to Agricultural (AG) District”

Does anyone know if any family friendly Halloween events going on actual Halloween day/night ? Or any good neighborhoods in rowlett or garland to trick or treat?

Just had to drive down Walnut and saw a bunch of emergency vehicles- several fire trucks, police and I think ambulance. Does anyone know what happened over there?
