We are always told that DVGRR staff and volunteers are superheroes, but we believe our adopters and supporters are the real superheroes!
Join us for our Annual Reunion on
Sat., Oct. 25 from 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.
We will begin the costume parade starting promptly at 11:30 a.m. We will have dogs and guests line up, and we’ll award the best costume contest winners at that time. Costumes this year can be your unique creations to keep with our Super Hero theme or any traditional Halloween costume will do!
There will be plenty of fun and games as well as food for sale and shopping at Pap’s Place. This event will be held rain or shine. We can’t wait to see everyone!
Games, raffles, food, and fun!
Sponsorships: Sponsorships are a great way to honor or remember canines and humans and show your Golden love and support. Sponsorship deadline is Oct. 15th.

Please RSVP to inza@dev.dvgrr.org by Oct. 15, 2025 with the names of attendees (both canine and human). RSVP is not required but does help with planning the event.
*** Volunteers are also needed to help make the event a success.***
Please email inza@dev.dvgrr.org if you can help as a volunteer.
* All dogs must remain on lead during the event (no flexis/retractable leashes). For everyone’s safety, we ask that each human handle only a single dog. We’ve had issues with dog fights and injuries as a result of a single person trying to handle multiple dogs. Compliance failure could lead to liability issues and legal expenses for DVGRR. We reserve the right to deny access to any event or activity should an attendee arrive handling more than a single dog.
