Our 20th Annual Wags, Whiskers & Wine Gala is TOMORROW!

We couldn’t be more excited to celebrate with you!


Here’s everything you need to know before the big night:


🚗 What to expect

Our 20th Annual Gala is at St. Francis Winery & Vineyards

100 Pythian Rd, Santa Rosa, CA 95409

from 5:30 pm to 9:30 pm


You’ll enjoy a fur-bulous evening filled with unforgettable moments—think irresistible adoptable animals, a silent auction, our famous Cake Frenzy, delicious wines, a dazzling diamond raffle from E.R. Sawyer, and the chance to make a life-saving difference during our paddle raise.


👗 What to Wear

  • Please Layer Up! Wine country casual evening wear is perfect! While it may be warm during the day, the evening is likely to be cool, so we recommend bringing layers. 


  • Fabulous Footwear! The event will take place outdoors on a mix of grass, gravel, and concrete surfaces. Flat-soled shoes are recommended to navigate safely and comfortably.

These will contain your bidding link and QR code.

Your bids during the silent auction not only score you incredible stuff but also make a life-saving difference to our furry pals.

Lyric came to us from an overwhelmed caregiver—one of eight timid, fragile chihuahuas in need of hope.


She’s shy, gentle, and slowly learning what it means to feel safe and loved.


Your bids at our 20th Annual Gala give dogs like Lyric the chance to heal. A warm bed. A kind touch. A fresh start.


An open door to more second chances.

Sailing with a Picnic


Experience and explore the majestic beauty of Bodega Bay on a magical 3-hour cruise. Leaving from the quaint hamlet of Bodega Bay, you’ll set sail from the comfort of a beautifully maintained 33’ sailboat with your captain, Richard Crumley (Coast Guard OPUV). A former park ranger in Bodega Bay, Rich is well versed in the local flora and fauna and loves showing friends the scenic Sonoma Coast line. Expect to see lots of migratory birds, seals and sea lions. During peak migration season, you might even see a whale or two. Refresh your spirit and renew your appreciation for our local, awe-inspiring natural treasures!



Bodega Bay Sailing is a locally-owned green business

Your support means the world to us, and the animals!
