I lost my black 28-inch Samsonite hard-shell suitcase yesterday around 3pm. I think I had it near the Oregon District on 5th Street in Dayton, maybe outside a cafe or after stepping into a bodega by the corner. It's matte black with subtle red stitching along the zipper and a bright blue luggage tag on the handle with the initials KP; there are a few scuffs on the corner from travel. This suitcase was a gift from my grandmother and carries sentimental value, so I really need it back. If anyone finds it, please get in touch—you'll be helping me a lot, and I can show appreciation with coffee or a small reward.
I lost my black Labrador mix named Scout yesterday around 3pm when I stopped at a coffee shop on Main Street in Dayton. He bolted after a busier scene outside and disappeared toward Riverbend Park, and I couldn't catch him. Scout is about 60 pounds, with a shiny black coat, a bright green collar, and a blue bone-shaped tag that says 'Scout' with my number. He has a small white crescent on his chest and a tiny scar on his right ear from a past chase. He's microchipped and means the world to me—he's my hiking buddy. If you spot him, email me at [email protected]. Thank you so much.
I lost my blue plush dragon 'Sprinkles' from the GUND line. It's about 12 inches tall, with soft blue fur, a white belly, and rainbow wings. It has a tiny tear along the seam of the left wing and a small white star embroidered on the left ear. I last saw it yesterday around 3pm near the Dayton Children's Hospital entrance on Edwin C. Moses Blvd. This dragon is my daughter's bedtime buddy and has sentimental value—she calls it her guardian dragon. If you found it, please message me here and we can arrange a safe meetup in the Dayton/Springfield area.
I lost my gray and white Syrian hamster, Mini Furball, yesterday around 3pm after I opened his cage to give him a treat. He's a tiny fluff-ball about the size of a plum, with a soft sandy-gray back and a stark white stripe running down his back. He has a tiny black dot behind his left ear and a pink paw that shows when he's excited. I last saw him near the Dayton Main Library on Main Street; I think he slipped through a crack in the door between the cafe and the bookstore. He has been with me since he was a baby and means the world to me—really hoping someone spotted him and can get him back to me.
I lost my hand-painted porcelain vase yesterday around 3pm near Ghost Light Coffee on East Fifth Street in the Oregon District, Dayton. It’s about 8 inches tall, teardrop-shaped with a creamy glaze, featuring blue and pink roses and a fine gold rim. On the bottom there’s a small sticker reading 'Dayton Studio Pottery' and the base has faint gold initials 'PP'. It’s in good condition besides a faint crack repair along the bottom I did with clear epoxy, and there’s a tiny rim chip that I smooth when cleaning. It’s sentimental—a gift from my grandmother—and I’m really hoping to get it back. If anyone found it or picked it up thinking it was a decorative piece, please reach out. I’d be forever grateful.
I found a black leather briefcase this afternoon around 2:15 pm in the parking lot behind the Greene Town Center in Beavercreek, off I-675 near the Target. It's a medium-sized case with a sturdy top handle, two brass clasps, and a few scuffs on the corners. Inside there's a gray laptop sleeve, a blue notebook with the initials 'A.K.' on the first page, and a bright red USB drive in the main pocket. If you’ve been missing it, email me at [email protected] with a description of the notebook or the initials, and we can arrange a pickup.
I found a pair of black rectangular Ray-Ban glasses this afternoon around 2:15 pm outside the Dayton Metro Library on East Third Street. They’re in pretty good shape, with black acetate frames, a subtle silver hinge, and a tiny red accent on the right temple. The left temple is etched with the initials 'S.N.' and the lenses have a light smudge but no major scratches. I picked them up near the library entrance by the bus stop—looks like someone dropped them in a hurry. If these are yours, I’d really love to get them back; they look important, and I’m happy to meet for a quick handoff near the front of the library or at a nearby coffee shop.
I found a bright green budgie with a yellow head this morning around 9:15 am, perched under a bench near Blind Bob's in Dayton's Oregon District. It has a small blue leg band on the left leg with the number A7-42, and it seems healthy, chirping happily when I whistle. I set him up in a spare travel cage I keep in my car, and he's been eating millet and nibbles since I grabbed him. I’d love to reunite him with his owner—if this is your bird, message me at [email protected] with how you describe his beak color or any distinctive markings like a white ring around his eye.
I found a Ludwig 14-inch snare drum this afternoon around 4:15pm in the parking lot behind the Victoria Theatre on Second Street in downtown Dayton. It's a black snare with chrome hardware, a small dent on the rim, and the Ludwig badge still visible. The drum came with two used sticks with red tips tucked underneath the shell. There’s a handwritten sticker on the bottom that reads 'S. Rivera' in Sharpie, plus a few scratches from gigging. If this is your drum, I’d love to help get it back to you—honestly, I hope the owner sees this and reunites with it.
I found a set of keys this morning around 7:45am in the parking lot behind the Dayton Public Library on Main Street. On the ring are two brass house keys, a silver car key with a red enamel tag that says 'A-12', and a small black USB drive. One of the keys has a faint Schlage logo, and there's a blue fabric tag with a tiny wave pattern. They’re a bit dusty from the rain last night but seem still usable. If this belongs to you, DM me or email me with a description of the tag and the keys—happy to get them back to you.
