Wally Kimbro to the Rainbow Bridge


We received word today that one of our hounds has gone to the Bridge. He was adopted back in 2004 by the Kimbro family. This is what they had to say about their sweet boy:
"We adopted Wally from BHRA back in 2004. He brought us years of happiness and we loved him very much. Yesterday 1/23/10 we had to make the dreaded decision to put him to sleep and end his suffering before it became to much for him. His full name was Walter Russell Kimbro, Wally for short. He was fostered by Eunice and Stretch Cleeland before coming to us for his forever home. Everybody loved Wally, wherever we took him he melted hearts. Our hearts will forever be changed because of him. Thank you very much for all that your organization does for these beautiful creatures :) He was loved by many, but gave his family forever memories to cherish.

Mitch, Caedy, Kaley, Jaecy and his canine brothers Noah and Tommy Kimbro :)

Please visit our Rainbow Bridge Memorial page on our website at www.bhra.org to see tributes to some wonderful hounds we have lost over the years.

Several of our new Fosters came with their hounds - Chrissie, Carley and Liddy who are being fostered by the Patzkowky's, Squyres and Scott families respectively. Hounds in attendance also were Sadie, Neva, Mack,and Lulu. The group attracted a lot of attention and interest. Thanks to everyone who came out and participated!
