Pictured is our 2026 DVGRR Calendar!
Our calendar continues to be super popular with adopters and supporters alike, so lots of folks will see your happy face and sparkling eyes. We are looking for great shots of DVGRR adopted dogs showing off, acting regal, being silly, enjoying a special holiday, frolicking outside, lounging inside, or just sporting that great Golden “smile.” Remember, for a small donation your family can also have birthdays, “gotcha days” (the date of adoption), or memorial dates published in the calendar.
