Big Dog Ranch Rescue lost a great friend, Chris Cline. Please read a message from our President/founder, Lauree Simmons.
Yesterday we lost a very special friend to me and to Big Dog Ranch. Chris Cline and his beautiful daughter Kameron, along with several others died in a helicopter crash off his island in the Bahamas. He was an amazing client and friend for almost 20 years. Chris was so giving and supportive of our mission to save dogs. He so loved his dog Nikki, who sadly passed last year. Not only did he host and sponsor our fundraising golf tournament three years in a row, Chris also built a building at our facility, which houses 100 homeless dogs. But that’s not all, he even paid all our ranch utilities for this year.
His philanthropy was huge like his heart and it lives on at Big Dog Ranch. He loved his family and was a true inspiration to so many. I will always be grateful to have known him and been a part of his life on so many design and build projects. He and his daughter Kameron will be greatly missed. My heart bleeds for his family. Today was his 61st birthday.
Life is short, we never know when it’s going to end. Hug your family. Hug your dogs. Make a difference and live like it was your last day. Rest in peace alongside the lord Chris and Kami. I know Nikki is beside you both.
Much love,
Lauree #gonebutnotforgotten #rescueadvocate #rip #wewillmissyou #chriscline #bdrr #bigdogranchrescue
Have you filled out an application to meet me yet? My foster mom says I would make the best playmate since I LOVE other dogs! I am playful, curious, energetic, smart and super goofy so basically all I’m missing is a forever family! Yes I’m a little hard of hearing but my foster mom says I still listen better then my foster sis Layla #jojobean #adoptdontshop #coppersdreamrescue
Today Reed & I went back to where it all began... West Chester East High School. Because of their awesome (& persistent) librarian & their terrific student body, Reed is a certified therapy dog and has a non-fiction children’s book written & published about his special story.
As you can see, we LOVE visiting East HS (Reed can hardly wait to get through the long hallways to the kids)! .

Spent the afternoon working on a passion project with my new collab @pawsoflarescue. #sundayfunday
As many of you know I got my start in the pet industry as a professional in the rescue world. It was a driving factor as to why I became a dog trainer.
It felt good giving back today and working on some training vids for this budding new rescue. #staytuned
