To my dear West Seattleites and fellow Arbor Heights residents:
Please don’t allow your dogs to run loose. I was nearly attacked on a walk this evening by a large dog. The dog was in a fenceless yard, unattended and without a leash or a chain. She ran across the street to me and growled, barked, and showed her fangs as I pressed myself against a fence. She got less than two feet away from my bare legs. My mom and I screamed and yelled at the top of our lungs for someone to get their dog. Finally, a neighbor came outside after at least a minute. He said the dog belonged to his neighbor, whose yard she came from. The dog’s house and all of the neighboring houses had full driveways, yet no one else could be bothered to come out and help.
To the people who didn’t help: I sincerely hope you had fallen to the bystander effect instead of a lack of empathy.
To the owner: It’s incredibly irresponsible to allow your untrained dog to be left unattended outside when she has an instinct to protect her land by growling at and cornering passersby. I hope your dog doesn’t attack a person or one of the cats that roam the area. I also hope she doesn’t get hit by a car while she’s loose.
Topic: Any cat sitters out there?
I don’t typically do this, but we’re in a jam. We have a sweet part Maine coon cat named Tuna, and she needs a temporary home when we go on our upcoming road trip. Would be July 2nd-18th. It’s a long shot, but if you’re interested in having a furry friend for two weeks please let me know. She lived with a couple cats before we adopted her, but probably wouldn’t do well with a dog. We have two small boys that she does well with them as she figures out how to have space when she needs it :) I can’t stomach taking her to a cat motel for 2 weeks and it makes me sad to have someone just stop in on her for an hour a day for that length of time. If interested, please drop me a line! Open to discussing compensation! Thanks!

Has anyone else noticed that West Seattle roads are under constant construction, with inordinately long project timelines? Holden and Delridge have been under construction for all of COVID now. That, and during a time when the bridge is closed so that area already relies on heavier traffic than normal. And then, before that is completed there is construction up that hill to add speed bumps- speed bumps of all things. And then there is the construction north of that prohibiting entrance to Delridge by Cloverdale and just north of that is more construction to turn onto Barton. All of these are now taking months.
With this kind of road work, I would honestly rather not have road work at all for a year. Why is it so hard to get construction bids for projects, with clear timelines, and then charge the construction company if they go vastly over in time or resources? Perhaps I am not understanding something, and if so I’d love to hear. Every other area I’ve lived in (about a dozen now) have not had anywhere near these kinds of problems with roadwork. I can only assume it’s a criminal misuse or mismanagement of public funds.
I have seen some similar threads with some weak responses like the fact that hours are more limited during COVID or labor is more difficult or individual explanations of having to redo work done already. But when this occurs repeatedly, for years, what explanation is there really for this? And what recourse do we have to end this?

Today at about 3PM I was waiting for the bus at Alaska and California, and that psychotic guy who haunts that intersection tossed over trash bins and started attacking black men. The men weren’t bothering him in any way, yet he threw a chair at one and confronted another, both in the middle of the intersection, stopping traffic. No police ever appeared. This kind of behavior by that insane guy has been happening in that block for years (I lived there for 13 years). Is there nothing that anyone can do to get that guy some help or institionalize him? He is a scar on the Junction and now is attacking others during the day. It will only get worse. The black men who were attacked evidently didn’t call the police. Guess why? This is bad!
