GRREAT's Forever Friends
Riley
For Riley, the most wonderful, loving, beloved, fun, beautiful companion we ever could have imagined. Thank you GRREAT for making it possible for Riley to be in our lives. We sure miss her.
Roscoe 09-201
In memory of Roscoe (09-201), who crossed the rainbow bridge on May 6, 2018 at 15. He was the best boy, friend, companion, and therapy dog anyone could ask for. He was happiest prancing around with his ‘tennis’, swimming after ducks, sleeping on freshly cut grass in the sunshine, making snow angels, and sleeping at his daddy’s feet.
Roscoe was God’s constant gift to us. An ever-present expression of love and comfort. He saw me through so many trials, challenges, and life changes. He traveled cross country to California and back with me. Roscoe inspired our move to St. Croix for his ‘island retirement,’ where he found himself the perfect daddy in Daniel Willis. Roscoe was the best man at our wedding and stole the show. We miss you with all our hearts baby boy.
— Catherine and Daniel Willis
Sadie
Sadie was the faithful companion of Ruth Meier, a true friend and generous benefactor of GRREAT.
Honey
We adopted our beautiful Honey from GRREAT in 2005 when she was 7 months old and lost her in January of this year to a very aggressive cancer. We were beyond blessed to have her as a part of our family for 13 years. She will always be loved and missed. She was our “angel in a dog suit.”
Savannah
It has been four years since my little girl crossed over to the Rainbow Bridge. You were my first dog and I had no clue what to do but you showed me the way. You were my first love and best friend. I always called you my velcro dog because you never left my side. GRREAT gave me my most precious gift-you!
Abby 06-091
Our girl went to the Rainbow Bridge on November 8, 2017, at age 13, after a battle with cancer. She went to the bridge with dignity, on her own. She fought every day to stay with us, but like the poem it was a battle that could not be won. She made us smile, laugh and cry. No human was a stranger to Abby … everyone was her friend. Her “happy place” was on our boat, or swimming in the river. She was also tolerant of our grandchildren laying and crawling on her. She touched many of our friends lives too. She was a sweet girl, but could be stubborn at times … just like humans! We miss you so much, Abby! – Beverly and Steve Kreisberg
Charlie
Such a sweet, good natured guy. Loved his food, his friends and his walks. He was 10 years old when I adopted him, so I knew he didn’t have long, but that doesn’t really help much. A sorely missed companion and friend.
Hurley
In loving memory of Hurley. Best friend for long city walks at dawn and snuggles at home.
Tyson
Tyson was not a GRREAT rescue but was a GREAT golden companion rescued by my friends Carol and Bruce. He was cheerful ALL the time, even at the end of his battle with cancer. He was totally devoted, loving and ready to play or snuggle. He enjoyed many adventures and games of fetch. He lived a good life with many toys and doggy and human friends. Tyson will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Always in our hearts.
