Presents an evening to benefit local animal rescues
Honoring Dr. Renee Bayha
Wooffstock is a one-of-a-kind fundraiser bringing together the community for an evening of live jazz, an art sale, fine wine, a bourbon bar, cigar aficionado, hors-d'oeuvres, and a silent auction — all in support of local animal rescues.
This year's event will be held at the Waccabuc Country Club Carriage House, and is your chance to enjoy a wonderful night out while making a real difference in the lives of animals who need our help.
100% of the proceeds from Wooffstock go directly to supporting animal rescues. Your ticket isn't just an evening out — it's a lifeline for animals in need of loving homes.

Supporting animal rescues
Raised on a Charolais beef cattle farm in Mahopac, New York, my earliest memories are loving and caring for both large and small animals.
I received my BS and DVM degrees from Cornell University. I completed a large animal (equine) internship at the University of Pennsylvania at New Bolton Center and practiced general equine medicine and surgery before joining the Pound Ridge Veterinary Center. I have enjoyed a rewarding career practicing small animal medicine and surgery there since 1988. I have had the honor of being selected by my peers as one of Westchester County's top veterinarians in 2011, 2012 and 2013.
Cornell has remained a beacon of inspiration for me since my undergraduate days and I have served in various volunteer and leadership roles for the College of Veterinary Medicine Advisory Board, the Cornell University Council Administrative Board, the Committee for Alumni Elected Trustees and the President's Council for Cornell Women.
I have also volunteered my veterinary skills to care for the grey and red wolves at the Wolf Conservation Center in South Salem, New York since 2001. In 2024, I assisted in transporting five newborn Mexican gray wolf pups from the WCC to New Mexico, where they were fostered into a wild den as part of a federal effort to save one of North America's most endangered mammals.

Through my daughter's pursuit of riding horses, I also became very involved in our local chapter of the United States Pony Club. And also enjoy volunteering at my local parish, the Pound Ridge Community Church.
I currently live in South Salem, New York with my husband, Tom Gossett. I have two children, Billy and Elizabeth. We share our home with two dogs, Dottie and Robbie and a cat named Peter George. I have competed my Labrador Retriever Henry in AKC Hunt Tests; he had earned the highest title of AKC Master Hunter and in 2015 qualified and competed at the Master National in South Carolina. I am currently training and competing my yellow Labrador Retriever, Robbie, in AKC and HRC Hunt Tests. Robbie has earned the highest title of AKC Master Hunter and is also a HRC Seasoned Hunter and an Advanced Canine Good Citizen.
