Couple things,
1. We try to be helpful and post things to inform the public, or to help locate missing pets. As you may have noticed lately, We have turned all commenting off on recent posts. It seems we can’t post anything without some people deciding they need to resort to judging others or name calling. We’re not about it. Do better. Offer sound advice in a polite manner, offer assistance, be decent. Subject matter of posts doesn’t seem to matter. It happens on all of them…
2. PLEASE put a name tag and contact info on your pet’s collar. It would make life so much easier for everyone.

Have a great day, and be kind!

We have had some questions regarding scooters. A brief summary of the law is that you must be 18 years old to operate them and follow all the rules of the road. A municipality can adopt their own ordinance and rules regarding scooters, however Manito does not have one at this time. Below is a link where you can read all the information about this law. Thank you and have a great day!
