This
year's rescue parade was held on June 16, 2007. A Big THANK YOU goes out to all of our wonderful
Long Island Golden Retriever Rescue families for making this day such a
huge success!
The parade was held on the grounds of the St. Johnland
Nursing Home in Kings Park. Approximately 30 LIGRR families attended, some
with more than one rescued Golden Retriever.
The day was very hot but the dogs and their "people"
still had a great time. Each family proudly showed off their rescued Golden
Retriever in the Show Ring, while our esteemed "emcee", Bill, told the
dog's rescue story. Each LIGRR dog received their own toy after
completing their turn in the ring.
The LIGRR volunteers attend numerous Golden Retriever and dog events
annually. The Rescue Parade is far and away our favorite! We get to see "our"
dogs living happily with their Forever Families. We get to "catch up" with our
terrific adopters! It's all about Happy Endings...for us, it doesn't get any
better than that!
A special "Thank You" to all who made donations and purchased LIGRR
merchandise and raffle tickets. Your generous financial support is what makes it
possible for us to continue providing LIGRR's needy Golden Retrievers with
medical care and placing them in excellent homes.
It was a great day and we look forward to seeing even more of our LIGRR
families next year. Let's make this a family tradition and make it BIGGER and
BETTER IN 2008!
THANK YOU ALL!!!
