  1. They now have a waiting list of people who want to PAY FOR THE PRIVELAGE OF WALKING A DOG.

  2. They have made so much money in “rental fees” that they have waived adoption fees

  3. When the people renting the dogs are out walking, the post pictures of themselves playing the game on FB and Instagram. People are then coming to the
    shelter asking to adopt specific dogs.

  4. On at least two occasions, people have called the shelter and said “Hey, i didn’t think I wanted a dog. But me and THIS dog get along REALLY well. I’m not bringing him back”

  5. The shelter currently has no dogs avaliable to rent, and there is a waiting list. Because all of the dogs have been adopted!! They are currently bringing dogs in from a different shelter to be “rented”

Yogurt billionaire to bring back historic Anchor Brewing

The billionaire owner behind yogurt brand Chobani has acquired Anchor Brewing Co, the historic San Francisco brewery that shut down last year.

Why it matters: Anchor Brewing, often called the godfather of steam beer, had become a staple in San Francisco, so its closure after 127 years of business sent shockwaves through the city.

Driving the news: Shepherd Futures, the family office of Chobani CEO and founder Hamdi Ulukaya, on Friday announced its acquisition of Anchor Brewing’s assets.

  • That includes the recipes, the Potrero Hill facilities, brewing equipment and original logos.
