Reilly

2015 – 2023

Reilly was the sweetest boy. He loved playing fetch, going for walks/hikes, and cuddling up with his favorite people. He was a great guard dog and always let us know when someone pulled into the driveway. He loved taking care of Daisy and would shower her with his love constantly. Our house doesn’t feel the same without him but we know he is pain free and in a better place. We will miss Reilly so much, he has been in our lives for almost nine years.

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

So sorry to hear of the passing of your sweet pup. It's always hard to lose a pet, and it's obvious that he was a very well-loved part of your family. You gave him a great life while he was here with you and I hope you find some comfort in knowing that you did everything you could for him. Hugs to you all.
