Susan Cookson’s Rays of Sunshine
A Summer Memorial Auction & Raffle for Australian Shepherds Forever

This spring, our community unexpectedly lost a bright light, a fierce advocate, and a devoted friend to dogs in need. To Susan Cookson, saving Australian Shepherds wasn't just a hobby—it was her love, her passion, and her true calling. As the architect behind our year-round fundraising efforts and the driving force behind our booster team, Susan dedicated her life to keeping the doors of Australian Shepherds Forever Dog Rescue open.

Now, it’s our turn to keep her light shining.
We invite you to join us for Susan Cookson’s Rays of Sunshine: A Summer Memorial Auction and Raffle. Let’s gather to celebrate Susan’s extraordinary life, honor her legacy, and raise the vital funds needed to continue the rescue work she poured her heart into.

Wear the Legacy. Share the Sunshine!
