LOST

Blue plush dragon with rainbow scarf

I lost my blue plush dragon yesterday around 3pm near the Dayton Mall food court. It's about 12 inches tall, soft fleece, bright blue with a teal belly and lilac wings, and it wears a rainbow knitted scarf. The toy has a small white star patch on its left wing and a tiny fray at the tail tip—definitely showing it's well-loved. It’s sentimental to my daughter; it was a gift from grandma, and we really need to get it back.

Golden retriever mix with red collar and heart patch

I lost Willow, my golden retriever mix, about 60 pounds, with a bright red collar and a blue plaid harness. She has a creamy-gold coat and a small white heart-shaped patch on her chest, plus a tiny scar on the inside edge of her right ear. Yesterday around 3pm, she slipped from her leash near Carillon Historical Park and darted toward the river trail by the Oregon District on 3rd Street. She’s super friendly but tends to wander when she’s excited, and I’m worried she’ll get farther from home. If you spot her, please call or text my number on her tag. I really need her back—she’s part of our family and means the world to me.

Blue Nike running shoes, size 9.5

I lost my blue Nike running shoes yesterday around 3pm near Roesch Library on the University of Dayton campus. They’re men’s size 9.5, blue with a white sole and a slightly frayed white Nike swoosh. Left shoe has a faint coffee stain on the inner toe and the right toe has a tiny scuff from a morning run. They were a gift from my sister last year, so they mean a lot to me and I’d really love to have them back. If you found them, please message me here and I’ll meet you at the library café to grab them.

Blue passport with gold crest lost near Oregon District, Dayton

I was at a coffee shop in Dayton's Oregon District yesterday around 3pm when I realized my blue passport was missing from my tote. It's a standard navy-blue cover with a gold crest; the inside pages are in good shape, but there's a small coffee stain on the back page and a tiny dent on the lower-right corner. I think it slipped out while I was paying for a drink near the counter and might have been left on a chair or dropped near the brick storefront on 5th Street. This passport is essential for my upcoming trip next week, and I really need it back; if anyone finds it, please message me, I will be forever grateful.

Blue Penguin Essentials mystery paperback with red bookmark

I lost my blue Penguin Essentials mystery paperback yesterday around 3:15pm near the coffee shop on Main Street in Dayton's Oregon District. It's a 320-page trade paperback with a red ribbon bookmark peeking out and a coffee ring stain on the back cover. The cover art is a moody teal-blue with a small 'Staff Pick' sticker on the inside flap. It was a gift from my aunt and carries a lot of sentimental value; I really need it back to finish the last few chapters. If you found it, please drop me a note here — I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.

Rustic oak coffee table with brass inlay

I found a rustic oak coffee table with brass inlay this afternoon around 2:15pm in Dayton, in the Oregon District behind Blind Bob's on Main Street. It's a solid piece, honey-stained with a 40-inch long, 18-inch wide top and a sturdy 16-inch height. There are a couple of small dents on the left front leg and a subtle brass inlay along the edge that catches the light. The surface shows a few wear marks but overall it's in good shape. If this is yours, I'm hoping to help you get it back—look for the dented left front leg and brass border to confirm.

Yellow-green parakeet with blue tail found near RiverScape

Found a small parakeet this morning around 7:15am near RiverScape MetroPark along Main Street in Dayton. It's a yellow-green parakeet with a bright blue-tipped tail and a tiny silver leg band that reads 4J92. The bird is pretty tame and hops onto my finger when I offer a treat, chirping softly. I checked the area and didn’t see anyone calling for a bird, so I’m posting here in case someone’s missing a pet. It seems healthy and alert; I’d love to reunite it with its owner or get it to a safe shelter if no one comes forward.

Found black Anker PowerCore 10000mAh power bank

I found a black Anker PowerCore 10000 portable charger with a gray braided USB-C cable still attached. It's palm-sized, about the size of my palm, with a small dent on the corner and a blue rocket sticker on the back. I found it this afternoon around 3:15pm in the parking lot behind the Dayton Arcade on East 2nd Street, near the bike racks. It still shows about 46% charge on the display. It's clearly someone's everyday carry; I'm happy to help return it to the owner.

Blue knit gloves with butterfly embroidery

I found these this afternoon around 3:15pm near the entrance to the Victoria Theatre on Main Street in Dayton. They’re a pair of navy blue knit gloves, probably women’s size medium, with a tiny butterfly embroidery stitched on the cuffs. One glove has a small snag near the thumb where the yarn sticks out, and there’s a faint monogram inside the wrist that looks like 'LJ'. They look well cared for and would be warm on a chilly evening. I figured someone might be missing them after a show or a stroll along the river, so I’m holding onto them here in case the owner recognizes the details. If these are yours, message me and we can arrange a pickup.

Found: compact digital guitar tuner with pink case

I found a compact digital guitar tuner this afternoon around 4:15 pm outside the Neon Movies on 5th Street near the Oregon District in Dayton. It's a small black device about the size of a deck of cards, and it wears a pink silicone case that’s a bit scuffed from pocket use. On the back there's a tiny sticker with the initials 'P.P.' and the face lights up green when you power it. It seems to function fine, and the pink cover makes it easy to spot if it’s dropped in a practice room. If this belongs to you, reach out here and we’ll work out a way to get it back to you—I’d hate for someone to lose their gear.
