We’re once again celebrating Betty’s legacy during our DVGRR Betty White Birthday Fundraiser (The entire amount of this donation is tax deductible).
The first two of our “Frolicking Dog” logo were completed in our 2023 and 2024 challenges. We are filling up our third frisbee-catching dog this year!
Submit a photo and your pet’s name. Email photo to inza@dvgrr.org labeled, “Betty Fundraiser.” We will use the photo in a collage of our frolicking dogs which are displayed in our Adoption Center. (Pet names will not be included in the design).
This fundraiser will run until February 28, 2025. We plan to offer this fundraiser yearly as a way to honor both present and past pets in honor and memory of Betty White.
You can also honor her birthday by donating to Delaware Valley Golden Retriever Rescue. Every gift, no matter how large or small, will enable us to continue to carry out our mission of saving this beloved breed and to honor a woman who was such an incredible champion for animal welfare!

Our Lyrics by John Plummer, DVGRR Executive Director
Thank you for being our friend
Supporting us through thick and thin
Your hearts are true, couldn’t do it without you.
We’re not ashamed to say
We hope it always will stay this way
Our hats are off, won’t you stand up and take a bow
And when you open your mail
We guarantee without fail
You would see the biggest thanks would be from us
And we’re grateful to say
Thank you for being our friend
If you’ve got doggie fever
We’d surely get you a Golden Retriever,
A doodle or lab, any time of the day or night
We’re not ashamed to say
We hope it always will stay this way
Our hats are off, won’t you stand up and take a bow
And when you both get older
With arthritis and hair of gray
Have no fear, even though it’s hard to hear
He’ll lick your face to say
Thank you for being our friend
Thank you for being our friend
Thank you for being our friend
Thank you for being our friend
