SAN LUIS OBISPO — More than 75 wineries and local businesses will raise a glass for animals in need during Wine 4 Paws on April 25–26, benefiting Woods Humane Society.
Participating wine, olive oil, dining and retail businesses across San Luis Obispo County will donate 10 percent of their weekend sales to support homeless dogs and cats. Since its founding in 2009, the countywide fundraiser has generated more than $750,000 for the nonprofit shelter.
In addition to donating a portion of proceeds, some businesses will host special events and promotions, including online wine sales, wine-paired dinners, paint-your-pet parties, vineyard dog walks and wine-blending seminars.

Woods Humane Society CEO Emily L’Heureux said the fundraiser provides critical support as the shelter prepares for “baby season,” when puppies and kittens begin arriving in greater numbers. Funds raised during the weekend help provide food, shelter and medical care for more than 3,000 animals served annually.
