• Making the Right Choice (coralgablesmagazine.com) — Just across U.S. 1 from Pinecrest, PAWS4you is helping Gables and nearby residents adopt rescued dogs like Olivia, a quiet pup who recently found a new home after careful screening. The shelter, which never euthanizes its animals, houses up to 100 dogs, relies heavily on volunteers, and has placed more than 15,000 pets with families since 2007.

• Vulnerable House Republican Rebukes Trump's Immigration Crackdown (americanliberty.news) — Residents of Pinecrest, which sits in Florida's 27th Congressional District, may want to note that Rep. María Elvira Salazar is publicly challenging President Trump's immigration crackdown in a new campaign ad. She argues enforcement is sweeping up too many non-criminal immigrants and promotes her Dignity Act proposal, a compromise offering tougher border rules alongside limited legal status for long-term residents without citizenship.
