Welcome to CAC'S 21st annual Tails at Daylight Dinner & Auction!
Saturday, October 10, 2026 - 3:00pm-7:00pm
at StanCraft Jet Center
Each year, Companions Animal Center hosts our signature event at different location in the community to gather animal-loving people like you to share in our life-saving mission.
This year's theme, "Furst Class Pawsengers," represents that our reach is far greater than our own backyard. Because of donors and adopters like you, we are able to give animals a second chance at a happy, healthy life. Partnering with StanCraft Jet Center, we are able to share with you our life-saving mission that delivers animals from death-row to finding loving homes in North Idaho. A Wings of Rescue flight will taxi directly up to the Tails at Daylight event which will be located inside StanCraft's hangar. You will have front row seats to witness the embarking canines to the event.
Enjoy the afternoon with friends and kindred animal lovers as you stroll through the many auction items that will be available. Along with dinner, drinks, live entertainment, and of course, lots of hugs and kisses from our furry friends.
Dinner catered by Inland Northwest Catering consisting of
Roasted tri-tip with Grilled Peach Gastrique, Frenched Chicken Breast with Mushroom & Thyme Cream Sauce,
Roasted Root Medley Garden Salad with Roasted Roma Tomatoes, Rolls and Butter, Dessert, and Beverage Station
A wine and beer no-host bar will be furnished by
Coeur d'Alene Cellars

Our emcee and auctioneer for the evening is our good friend and animal lover,
Mark Peterson
Entertainment by our favorite singer and guitarist,

The event will be held inside a large hangar which will protect you from any type of weather. The hangar doors will open to the tarmac when the flight of rescued dogs arrive.
All proceeds from Tails go directly to care for the animals at Companions Animal Center, formerly Kootenai Humane Society.
By attending Tails, you not only experience a great event with family, friends, and coworkers, but you are also assuring that abandoned, abused, or unwanted animals has a safe place, nutritious food, and loads of playtime and lots of love until they find their forever home.
