Long Island Golden Retriever Rescue
Wall of Fame 2023-2024
Thank You Wall-of-Fame Donors!
Dear Golden Family,
Thanks to you, our wonderful LIGRR family, we have been able to help so many dogs! Your support through our Wall-of-Fame has allowed us to take dogs from families who were unable to keep their dogs, dogs whose family members have passed away and more recently puppies from puppy mills. We have had an exciting year. With your help we have been able to save many Golden's in need.
Some of the most memorable rescues:
A woman found herself in dire straits and found a solution in joining the military. Unable to take her dog with her, she made the difficult choice of calling us for help. Her dog was taken into rescue where he lives happily in his new home.
Another woman came to us; she was divorced and her home was in foreclosure. She was moving into her mother's home and not allowed to bring a dog. One of our wonderful families adopted her and her dog is happy enjoying her new life.
A dog with a heart murmur whose family couldn@apos;t manage him joined the LIGRR family.
Late last summer we were contacted by someone who works with the Puppy Mills to get the young dogs out before they might have a bad ending. This project continuers until today - We rescued about 40 puppies before the end of 2023 and continue to help these young dogs get the life that they deserve.
Your support is such a huge part of what we do. You are the reason why we can do this and more. The board and I are so grateful to have you with us in this journey. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
