Democracy loving dogs and their people took over El Rio this week for a happy hour fundraiser for Harris-Walz. We had an all-you-can-scarf doggy biscuit bar (compliments The Animal Company) and adult treats and beverages too. It's not to late to donate: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/dogsfordemocracy

Listen to Lulu: don't sit home worrying about how close the polls are in the presidential election. Instead, join Dogs for Democracy at our paw-some happy hour at El Rio in San Francisco.

Have a drink, enjoy some appetizers and donate to support the only animal-loving candidates in in the race: Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. You’ll also be able to learn about other ways you can help.

Did I mention the all-you-can-scarf biscuit bar? Dogs, bring your humans this Wednesday.

Good news that a story like this has become mainstream.

"Each passing year, more and more spaces and streets include design touches that are a direct response to Fido’s presence."

Dogs have become San Francisco’s ‘most important urban accessory.’ It’s changing the city’s landscape

Note the comment period has been extended until May 8, 2024.

⚠️ URGENT action needed. Please submit a comment by Tuesday, April 30. NPS is planning to plant endangered and special-status plants that will use dangerous herbicides and require more areas at Fort Funston closed to recreation.

NPS is falsely claiming a new habitat restoration area will help bank swallows survive a 2-year construction project to protect San Francisco's wastewater treatment facility. Bank swallows don’t eat plants, native or not.
