A vibrant dog park bathed in sunlight features abundant greenery with mature trees, offering ample shade for leisurely outdoor activities. In the distance is a well-equipped playground that presents an additional activity area. An inviting picnic table spreads out nearby, ideal for enjoying meals al fresco or taking relaxing breaks from play. A neatly-placed trash bin aids in maintaining the park's cleanliness for everyone's enjoyment. Dominating the scene is a generously wide dirt path gracefully curving through the expanse of grass, promising exploratory walks and lively fetch games.

Bodie here is a goofball. In a good way. He’s also really, really into tennis balls. Bodie found a cat-free home with lots of tennis balls and people to throw them. 

Thanks to lots of community support, the Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe (HSTT) has provided a much-needed safety net for the region’s pets who suddenly find themselves homeless or otherwise in need since 1994. If your travels take you through the scenic town of Truckee, stop by and say hi, visit the adoptable dogs, and maybe take one home.

You can also help them by checking out their events page and possibly even schedule your visit to be able to attend one.
