If you are a dog owner in the Marblehead area, then you should know about Missing Dogs Massachusetts. The site started to operate on January 1 and it can help people to find their missing animal. They have a Facebook page where they will publicize your loss, they can create a missing flyer for you and they can offer other helpful tips.

In the first week or their operation, Missing Dogs Massachusetts reunited 16 lost dogs with their families. The group came about from a larger site called Granite State Dog Recovery, that posts about lost and found dogs throughout New England.

Both board members and volunteers from Granite State Dog Recovery started to think they needed a smaller radius for another site after seeing “literally thousands of dogs missing” in Massachusetts said Beth Corr, president of Missing Gods Massachusett’s Board.

There are eight volunteers who make up the Missing Dog Massachusetts’ board at the moment. They include a retired state police member, an animal control officer and a former animal rescue group president. Corr runs a kennel service and a homemade dog biscuit line in Newton that is called Wag Tail Farms. They use primarily social media channels to try to reunite missing dogs with their owners. In the first week of their business, they got 6,900 Facebook followers.

If you’re looking for some great pizza. Supreme Pizza is the place to be. But now, they will be at their new space at 585 Washington Street, next door to their previous location. As George Vasvatekis, the son of the owner Nick, said “We’ve been growing over the years.”

The restaurant will soon celebrate 25 years. It started in 1990 with five tables. In 1995, Nick expanded into an adjacent storefront that offered 50 seats and 2500 square feet of space. Now, they’ll have 3500 square feet of space with an open floor plan.

The new space is cozy and well decorated. And, of course, has their signature pizza waiting for customers to try.

Everyone in Marblehead should be paying attention as doctor Jeffrey Gold becomes the first physician in Massachusetts to open a Direct Primary Care practice. This is a model where patients pay the doctor a flat-rate either monthly or annually for a range of services. Dr. Gold’s patients will be paying a monthly, age-based fee that ranges from $30 to $125. This includes an annual physical.

For those interested, Dr. Gold’s practice will open on February 1 in Marblehead at 123 Pleasant Street, Suite 105. On his website, Dr. Gold said, “Over the course of the past couple of years, due to many factors, it became very clear to me that my vision for how I wanted to practice medicine was not coming to fruition; at least not in the dysfunction of the current healthcare system.”

He explained to the AAFP, “I want to be a doctor again. I want to do what I went to school for; I don’t want to be a bean counter. It’s my job to judge the quantity of patients I see.”

The Marblehead Historical Commission got a surprise check recently. They were given a check of $697,711 as a bequest from longtime residents Rita and Ross Terrien. The donation has four caveats. The principal and earned interest is to be used to create a repository to house Marblehead’s historical documents and records. The management of the facility is supposed to be under the control of the Marblehead Historical Commission and the facility that is created will be named for Ross and Rita Terrien.

Finally, the money should not be used in any way for the operating budget.

The Board of Selectman Chairman Jackie Belf-Becker described the Terriens’ donation as “special — something you don’t see very often.”

Rita died in 2009 and Ross died in 2012. The couple were married for 65 years and were antique dealers who owned the town’s Old General Store.
