Dr. Rose Park is a living tribute to the life and work of Dr. Rose Davidson, a beloved veterinarian, community leader, and animal welfare advocate. Founded by her family and friends, this park is dedicated to preserving her passion for animals and her lifelong commitment to improving the lives of both pets and the people who love them.

Our Mission: Celebrating Lives, Supporting Welfare

The mission of Dr. Rose Park is twofold: to provide a place of peaceful remembrance for the pets we have loved and lost, and to support the ongoing work of the Brookings Regional Humane Society (BRHS) and animal welfare missions. Our memorial brick program allows pet owners to honor their furry companions, ensuring that their memories live on in a beautiful park setting. Every brick purchased helps fund animal welfare initiatives, including spay/neuter programs, wellness care for low-income families, and shelter services for animals in need.

A Place for Reflection and Connection

Dr. Rose Park is more than just a memorial park. It’s a space for the community to gather, to remember, and to connect with others who share a love for animals. Our park is a peaceful haven where families can walk, reflect, and share in the joy of knowing that their beloved pets are forever honored here.

A Vision for the Future

As we continue to grow, our vision is to ensure that Dr. Rose’s legacy of kindness and compassion is felt for generations to come. Our goal is at a future date to transition the park’s ownership to the city, so that it remains a public space open to all, providing a lasting tribute to Dr. Rose’s work and the animals she loved.
