JoJo and Gunner

2021

In memory of my dearest greyhounds JoJo and Gunner. Bold warriors and fierce competitors - they captured my heart - I was blessed by their presence in my life.

We believe in honoring the lives of pets

Here at Best Friends, animals have such a special place in our lives. We honor those pets we’ve loved and those who need our help today. At Best Friends, we keep pets in our hearts

Remembrances

Leaving a personal story, memory, or words of support for a pet’s family is a heartfelt way to pay tribute and provide comfort. As part of your remembrance, we also invite you to leave a virtual token along with your words — similar to our tradition here at the Sanctuary of leaving stones, beloved items, or small toys on the graves of cherished animals.

Leave Your Remembrance

JoJo and Gunner were Hedy’s first friends in the neighborhood. JoJo eventually learned to tolerate Hedy’s excitement in seeing her and Gunner never wanted to leave the dog park. Hedy loved to run with JoJo at the dog park with Gunner bring up the rear. I am sure Hedy, JoJo, and Gunner are running together with JoJo slightly ahead.
