QUICK POLL

📍Where’s your corner of the 302?

We’ve welcomed a lot of new readers lately, so we’re bringing back a quick check-in: Where do you call home? North Wilmington, Pike Creek, Newark… or maybe below the canal or right over the state line?

Your answers help us make the newsletter more useful (and interesting) for your neighborhood.

DOG OF THE WEEK

Say Hello to Coca Cola

Coca Cola is the kind of dog who doesn’t just walk into your life — she melts right into it.

At 4 years old, this medium-sized beauty is a little shy when you first meet her. But give her a moment to warm up, and you’ll find a loyal, loving companion who just wants to be near her person. She’s soft, sweet, and has the kind of soulful eyes that say, “I’ve been through some things, but I’m still full of love.”

Yes, she’s got a few scars — but they’re just proof of how far she’s come. And now, she’s ready for her soft landing. One filled with quiet afternoons, squeaky toys, and someone who sees how special she really is.

If you’re ready to add a little fizz to your life, stop by the Brandywine Valley SPCA’s New Castle campus to meet Coca Cola. She’s waiting for you.
