Chesapeake farm says puppy scam using its address

CHESAPEAKE, Va. - Hickory Ridge Farm on Battlefield Blvd. is known for strawberries and pumpkins, but puppies? Not so much.
That didn t stop someone from showing up to the farm in November looking to pick up a Havanese puppy. Came out one day to feed the animals and there was a lady sitting at the gate, recalls Robin Pierce, who owns Hickory Ridge Farm with her husband, John. We figured out this website was using our address for the potential sale of Havanese puppies.
The farm had just closed for the season, but this would only be the beginning of a headache for Pierce.

One would be hard pressed to imagine a better visual representation of the varying extremes of California weather than these two photos, taken just eight days apart by Santa Rosa Press-Democrat photojournalist Kent Porter.
In the first photo, taken last Monday, the flames of a
wind-whipped wildfire blaze across a hillside in a remote part of northern Sonoma County. In the second photo, taken on Tuesday, that same region is blanketed in snow. Porter said the two images were taken about a mile apart from each other. What a difference a few days makes in California, particularly as climate change intensifies extreme weather events.
