Meet Sampson. Sampson is about three years old and is a German Shepherd mix. He came to Grant County Animal Outreach in February of 2022. Sampson is a very loving dog but prefers his friends to have two legs instead of four. He enjoys playing outside, especially in the water, and being brushed. He would make a wonderful addition to a family that had a large yard for him to play in with no other animals. He gladly accepts treats and affection. For more information about Sampson and his fellow furry friends at the shelter, visit www.grantcountyanimaloutreach.org. More information is available by calling 509-762-9616 or emailing the shelter at [email protected]. The shelter is located at 6725 Randolph Road NE in Moses Lake.

About 104 homes are planned at the former Atlas sawmill site
Teachers, nurses, firefighters and other workers who keep Coeur d’Alene running will soon have more places to buy a home in the community where they work. About 104 homes are being planned to be built at Atlas Waterfront, on roughly 10 acres that are part of a swath of land that was once home to the Atlas sawmill and is being redeveloped. Ignite CDA, the city of Coeur d’Alene’s urban renewal agency, is leading this effort.
