returns this Saturday!
Streets Of Bakersfield is our "Doggy Day Out" program where the public can take shelter dogs on day outings. Your adventure can include a hike, a trip to the park, a coffee date or even hanging out at home. You can take a dog out for a few hours or even for the whole weekend!
Why We're Doing It:
These field trips help our shelter dogs manage kennel stress, burn off energy and get more exposure to potential adopters.
How It Works:
* Dogs are available for pick up from 10:00 AM to Noon
* "Streets Of Bakersfield" dogs need to be returned by 3:30 PM.
* "Sleepover dogs must be returned to the shelter the following Monday by 4pm
* You can pick a dog, or we can pick one for you!
* Must be 18 or older to take a dog out for the day.
* You will need to have a current foster application in the system, or you can fill one out when you get to the shelter.
* We ask that you fill out our Streets of Bakersfield Report Card, which gives us important information and insight about your shelter dog. Report cards are scanned to their permanent record and hung on their kennels.
* We also appreciate any photos and videos of your adventures and love to share them on social media.
