Orange County Animal Services is in urgent need of adopters and foster parents. and is asking the community for help as more than 230 dogs await placement. Since reopening for the New Year on Tuesday, January 2, Orange County Animal Services has received 196 dogs. On Sunday, January 7 alone, 55 dogs were admitted to the shelter near the Mall at Millenia. The shelter is now caring for more than 200 dogs and asking for the community to step forward to adopt, foster, or attempt to reunite found dogs with their owners before resorting to bringing them to the shelter. All dog adoption fees have been waived effective immediately and through Sunday, January 14. “This is a challenging time of year for us as most people aren’t in a position to adopt around the holidays, money is tight, people are travelling and spending time with family,” said Diane Summers, manager for Orange County Animal Services. “Unfortunately, while adoption interest may dwindle around the holidays, our intake does not.” Among the more than 200 dogs in the shelter’s care are some pets that have been waiting for months to land a home, like Gandalf (A418154) who initially arrived on August 23, 2023. The shelter is celebrating Gandalf’s sixth birthday on Saturday, January 13, 2024 and hosting an event in his honor. “Gandalf is the perfect example of a great dog who has been overlooked for months,” said Summers. “He’s a volunteer favorite, friendly with people and plays well with other dogs. We’re throwing him a birthday party this Saturday to bring attention to him because he’s flown under the radar for far too long.” Gandalf is approximately 60 pounds and available for immediate adoption, having been neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. For Gandalf’s birthday party, he will be featured in the shelter’s front play yard, where guests will be able to interact with him directly and with ease. This is the fourth event of its kind that Animal Services has planned. Prior events Blue Diamond Day in May 2022, “Pick Nick” Saturday in March 2023 and Simoni and Crunch Day in December 2023 were all successful in helping the highlighted pets find adopters. The shelter recently launched an intake diversion program aimed at providing resources to struggling pet owners and triaging cases where dogs need to be admitted. Due to the volume of pets already at the shelter, Animal Services has yet to be able to begin accepting these dogs. “The queue of people wanting to surrender their dogs continues to grow with each day,” said Summers. Animal Services is asking residents to consider adopting and fostering. For those that have found a stray dog, the shelter is asking finders to first try to locate the owner.

Farm & Haus, an East End Market staple since back in 2016 is bowing out of the Audubon Park food hall, choosing to offer their healthy and vibrant cuisine exclusively at their Park Avenue location. Farm & Haus have been cooking up a storm at Audubon Park's East End Market since 2016, but F&H owners, husband and wife team Patrick and Brittany are closing the location in favor of their cafe on Park Avenue in Winter Park. In announcing the news on their social channels, Patrick and Britany revealed that the East End Market location will close on January 31, a decision they say was made once they found a permanent storefront on Park Avenue. Fans of their healthy and vibrant cuisine will be pleased to know that favorite F&H menu items at East End Market including burritos, will be finding a new home at the Park Avenue location, with a new, revised menu coming soon. Patrick and Brittany commented on their time at East End Market, "East End, as it has with so many other brands, has served us these past 9 years as an incubator- a place where these two crazy (then) 20-something-year-old’s took an idea for a fresh, healthy, dinner delivery service and turned it into a full-fledged brand, which then became a counter cafe that has served the community over these past 7 years. We look forward to handing the baton off to another worthy brand who, will no doubt, become another staple in our community." Commenting on the move, East End Market posted on their social pages, "Thank you Brittany and Patrick for being a part of the East End family. You’ve been team players from day one and have inspired many other food entrepreneurs, showing them that raising a family and a running business is doable. All of us wish you the best of success with the cafe and all your future endeavors in this community." There is no word on what is coming to East End Market in place of Farm & Haus.
