Walk, don't run for the animals of the Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA! Join DogTrekker.com on Saturday, August 17, 2013 for PHS/SPCA's 19th annual Mutt Strutt. It's just around the corner, so start stretching now.

Hot Dog Alert!

Due to the excessive heat wave throughout the County, the Calaveras Humane Society has decided not to participate in the Independence Day Parade in Arnold as exposure to the heat and hot asphalt could be harmful to the animals taking part in the parade. DogTrekker.com encourages everyone to be very mindful of not exposing their pets and other animals to the heat generated in cars, the back of pickup trucks or walking their dogs on the hot pavement. Remember, 80 degrees outside can become 120 degrees inside a locked car and our temperatures are much higher than that right now.  

New Home for Wags and Whiskers!
