Teddy might be a little older, but she’s got plenty of love to share with a forever home. An 11-year-old German Shepard mix, she came to the shelter with her son Bear, who she is bonded to and should be adopted with. She enjoys being outside doing her own thing, but wants to be able to be close to Bear, otherwise she gets anxious. She is great with most dogs, people and children, but she’s afraid of cats. To adopt Teddy, contact Grant County Animal Outreach at 509-762-9616. The shelter is located at 6725 Randolph Road NE in Moses Lake and is open from noon to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday; noon to 6 p.m. on Saturdays and closed Sundays. Additional pets can be viewed at www.grantcountyanimaloutreach.org.

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.
