Clear Channel Helps Us Spread the
Word
We are most grateful to the Clear Channel
company for their donation of a billboard, pictured
below. The board was erected June 5th on
northbound Highway 880 near the High Street exit in Oakland.
Clear Channel hopes to move the board to the Tri-Valley area if
a spot is available when the board comes down
at its current location on July 5th.
Norm: The Biggest Lap Dog You Will Ever
Meet
Norm is a six-year-old Pit Bull who is a real
sweetheart that loves to cuddle. He enjoys walks and
meeting other dogs, but his favorite activity is spending time
with people. Please come to our Oakland Adoption Center to
meet
Norm.
Norm looks for the next recipient of one of
his world-class hugs...

animals. If you would like more information on how you can

Reminder: Protect Your Pets During Summer
Heat Waves
Even on mild summer days, the temperature in a
parked car can quickly become dangerously hot. Rather than
locking a dog in the car during errands, leave your pet at home
or bring her or him along for the on-foot portion of your
outing. A car's temperature rises an average of 19 degrees
within the first 10 minutes after a car is closed up, and can
quickly reach levels that are deadly.
Consider where your dog or cat is left at home,
too. On hot days, even shady areas of your yard may not be cool
enough to keep your beloved pet comfortable and safe. Providing
access to the coolest areas of your home and plenty of fresh
water are key to protecting your dog or cat on summer's hottest
days.
