  • LISTEN: Inspector counts 26 rodent droppings at Shalimar restaurant
    The initial violations — all deemed high priority — included finding 26 rodent droppings in the restaurant. One was in the women's room, 10 were under the sushi bar and 15 were under the hand washing sink next to the sushi bar, the report said.
    Inspectors also noted that raw animal food was stored over ready-to-eat products in the walk-in cooler and a dishwasher in need of repair. According to the report, the dishwashing chlorine sanitizer was not at the proper minimum strength.
    The inspector recommended washing dishes by hand in three distinct areas until the dishwasher could be repaired.

  • LISTEN: Lost dog post goes viral from town of Baker - Conversation with Debbie Moore
    A Facebook post involving a lost dog is going viral from the small community of Baker.
    Konner, a 1-year-old Yorkie has been missing since last Thursday, according to his owner Debbie Moore. 
    Konner disappeared just as a car was driving down a rural road near their home about 9 p.m. 
    “The car slowed down. I did hear a door open. He went over to investigate. When I looked back he wasn’t there.” 
    Moore thinks Konner went to check out the car and someone got out of the passenger side of the car and took him. She said she filed a police report and has been canvassing the area with flyers and holding signs in front of stores to try and find her dog.
    The search on social media has had an even larger reach. 
    As of Monday, nearly five days after Konner’s disappearance, the original Facebvook post has over 26,000 shares and over four thousand comments. 
    “To who has Konner. One thing is I won’t give up. Please give him ice in his water. Love him. Always let him sleep with you. Tell him he’s a big boy even tho he is small…,” the post reads. 
    Moore and her family have other dogs but Konner is special. 
    Two years ago Moore witnessed the tragic death of a boy who was run over by his father at a sod farm in Baker. 
    She said the accident left her with post-traumatic stress disorder. Her therapist suggested she try getting a dog to help ease her panic attacks. 
    That’s when she found Konner. 
    “It was just like an instant click thing with me and him,” said Moore. “Our personalities matched.” 
    Moore and the new family Yorkie were inseparable and she said the panic attacks began to subside. 
    But now Moore is heartbroken over Konner’s absence. 
    “It’s a punch in the gut every time you go home without him.” 
    Another Facebook page has been created, ‘Bring Konner Home,” with a link to donate to a reward fund. 
    The reward fund goal is $1,500 but Moore said they will match whatever the donations reach. 
    “He’s definitely one of the most amazing dogs we ‘ve had in our life. And I just wish whoever it was would just bring him home."
