Since CCRT began in 1999, we have seen hundreds of dogs come into our care and be adopted by loving, wonderful families. We are always incredibly sad to hear when a CCRT rescue dog moves on to Rainbow Bridge. However, we know they spent their last years being adored and cared for by the special people who adopted them. Below you will find photos and stories of some of the dogs that are now waiting for us at the Bridge. If you have a CCRT dog that has passed on, you are welcome to submit a photo and story via email to info@ccrt.net and it would be a privilege to include it on this webpage. We remember because we can never forget.
