JUNE 2021

Summer days are here again! Take a gander at our pet safety tips for hot weather and be sure to share them in your social pools...it could be a real lifesaver! We’re eager for things to open back up, with several events on the horizon. You’ll want to dive in early to our pet toy sale this Saturday! From 9 am – 2 pm we’ll be on Spring Street with loads of brand-new dog and cat toys – top up a big bag for a donation of just $20!

Next month we’re splashing up some Tips for Change at Gianni’s Ristorante, and our new October Tails at Twilight planning is well underway...sponsorships are sizzling! Keep cool and stay tuned!

Get Ready...Here We Come!

As we send this, Valley Humane Society still anticipates being able to reopen our doors this month! Set to coincide with the state’s expected timeline, things may look a bit different than before. Starting Wednesday, June 16, we will be open to the public from 12 noon to 4 pm Wednesday through Friday, and Saturdays from 10 am to 2 pm. Masking and social distancing protocols as outlined by the state and county will continue to be followed; we'll update our Covid-19 information page as we know more. We can't wait to see you in person!

Fill up on Fun

Treat your best pal to some new toys! Join Valley Humane Society and Fill up on Fun, this Saturday, June 12, from 9 am - 2 pm. Fill up a big bag of brand new goodies for Fido or Fluffy with just a $20 donation. Items include dog and cat toys, dog collars, bandanas, and other assorted gear. Bags will be provided - you pick the goodies that go inside! The event will take place in the parking lot of 120 Spring Street in downtown Pleasanton. Please bring your mask and adhere to social distancing guidelines. Come early for best selection!

Watch Those Paws

With temperatures on the rise this time of year, remember to check the weather and test the pavement before taking your four-legged friend out on a summer stroll. When spending time in the sun, have plenty of fresh water on hand for your pet to drink, and make sure your stroll spot offers access to shade. Always remember: never leave your pet unattended in a car; heat levels can change quickly in vehicles, and what we consider a mildly warm day can be dangerous. Explore this and more seasonal pet safety tips for a super summer!

Something to Smile About

Don't forget Dads and Grads this month! When you shop for the perfect graduation gift or peruse Dad's wish list for something he'll love, use AmazonSmile. Select Valley Humane as your charity of choice, and a portion of your purchase will be donated back to help the dogs and cats at Valley Humane Society at no additional cost to you.
