Wag Hotels, a chain of companion-animal boarding facilities, decided to offer a free week of board for cats and dogs at its nine locations across Northern and Southern California in response to the LNU Lightning Complex fire that began in August. We visited the West Sacramento location to see the furry guests.
Charlotte Worrell, general manager of the West Sacramento
location, plays with Hooch (left) and Hei Hei in Wag’s outdoor
area Sept. 3. The dogs came to Wag after their family was
evacuated from their home in Vacaville because of the fire.
Wag housed the pair in their own kennel since one of them is
unneutered; normally, the dogs get to play with the other furry
guests.
The West Sacramento and the Santa Clara locations have housed
more than 160 evacuated animals.
