SPCA Offers Canine Cruise
‘Dog Day on the Bay’ is an elegant, two-hour champagne brunch cruise, with gourmet cuisine and impeccable service for guests and their furry first mates. Enjoy spectacular views of San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge during this one-of-a-kind experience.
The cruise takes place on Sunday, May 4th. Dogs sail free, but there is a limit of one dog per adult and pups must be at least six months old. Services and amenities for the canine crew include the Bow Wow Buffet (sponsored by Happy Tail Ale), a special ‘poop’ deck (sponsored by the Sloat Garden Center) for those necessary bathroom breaks, Puppy Pleasures Boutique, and dog artists to commemorate your canine companion’s maritime voyage. Deck railings are covered with protective netting for extra safety and senior SF/SPCA veterinarians and experienced SF/SPCA staff dog monitors are in attendance. All proceeds from the event benefit the homeless dogs and cats at the San Francisco SPCA.
