Hi <<First Name>>...

Ten years ago, we first introduced DogTrekker.com to a few hundred friends and family. Our new website covered all things dog-friendly in Northern California, from travel news to rescue campaigns to care tips for four-legged friends. While it doesn’t seem like yesterday, it certainly doesn’t feel like a decade since that initial newsletter.
 
Today, three million readers, 10,000 listings and 2,500 stories later, DogTrekker is the trusted source for dog parents who hike, splash, play, eat and explore California with their four-legged (and three-legged, at times) best friends. Thanks to you, we’re leading the pack!

Leave no dog behind!

One simple mission has always guided DogTrekker’s work: Leave no dog behind, whether you’re on vacation or at a shelter. Since day one, we’ve dedicated our revenue and resources to California animal welfare organizations—including nearly 375 groups featured through DogTrekker channels. We thank our current destination partners for their generous support of this work. We also thank you, loyal readers, for opening your hearts and pocketbooks to help save, heal and find forever homes for dogs (and cats) in need.
