Important Notes:
-
Finding Your Perfect Match: Below are brief descriptions of some of our dogs that are available for adoption. Because the list is constantly changing, we recommend that you apply to adopt as soon as you are ready and work with an Adoption Coordinator, who can provide you with more info about dogs that are a good match for you and your lifestyle.
-
Adopting with Children: The safety of children in an adoptive home is one of our greatest priorities. Learn more about our approach to placing dogs in homes where little ones are present.
-
Adopting as a Townhome or Apartment Resident: As many of our dogs come from rural areas—where they have limited exposure to cars, new people and dogs, unexpected noises, and being leashed—we may limit placements for some dogs to single-family homes. Learn more >
-
Adopting & Fences: We require fences for some of our dogs for a range of reasons. Learn more >
-
Heartworm: About ten percent of our dogs are diagnosed with Heartworm disease during their initial vetting. Heartworm is treatable, and Lab Rescue provides treatment for all infected dogs at no cost to the adopter. Learn more >

Albert
Gender:
Male
Age:
3 years
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs
Needs:
A loving forever home
Big Hearted Al!
Albert says you can call him not just "Al" but "Big Al" and it's easy to see why - he's a big boy! He's not overweight, just a large Lab. Don't let this huge hunk of handsomeness be intimidating because he is a gentle giant and a real sweetheart. He was a stray so not much information is available on him but he does ride well in the car. Big Al is looking forward to showing his family what a big handsome boy he is.

Bobby
Gender:
Male
Age:
6 years
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs, No Cats
Needs:
A loving forever home. Fence negotiable.
Big Beautiful Boy!
Bobby is a stunning young yellow boy. He’s an extra-large boy with a gentle heart and a big brain to match. Although Bobby is strong, he’s also incredibly smart and eager to learn – especially when the reward is tasty treats and your praise. He walks nicely on leash with a no-pull harness. Bobby is fully crate-trained, house-trained, and enjoys quiet time in the backyard, lounging in the sun or sniffing around. He’s generally a calm and quiet companion, while also having a playful side - he's learned to relax and let his true self shine! One especially sweet note from his trial home: when Bobby had his people all to himself, he quickly shows just how much he loves close companionship and becomes a true “Velcro dog,” happily bonding and sticking close to his humans. Bobby is a loving, affectionate boy who will thrive in a calm, pet-free home with people who are comfortable with a large dog and appreciate a loyal companion who likes to stay close. He’s ready for the right match to come along and see just how special he is.

Casey and Nathan
Gender:
Male/Male bonded pair
Age:
1 year 2 months
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs
Needs:
A loving forever home with a 6 ft fence
Bonded Bros
Casey and Nathan are bonded brothers who must be adopted together. Casey is moderately more social than Nathan and has more natural curiosity and willingness to interact. Their progress continues to be steady but gradual, which is very typical for dogs who come in fearful and under-socialized. While they are still quite hesitant about direct human interaction, they have made some meaningful gains in trust. Both dogs will now approach for food and will take treats. Though not yet comfortable with petting or handling, when outside they often choose to stay nearby, hovering at a distance, which shows their curiosity and desire to be near people, even while they’re still working through some fear. They are making some progress walking on leash, but at this stage they would not thrive in a home that relies heavily on leash walking for exercise. They are much more comfortable in secure, familiar environments. Day-to-day management with them has become easy, and both boys really enjoy enrichment activities. They are very funny and endearing together, still very much in that silly adolescent stage. They play well, get into harmless mischief together, and clearly take comfort in one another’s company. Though good with other dogs, they remain strongly bonded and rarely choose to be far apart. With patience and love, these brothers have made a lot of progress since coming to Lab Rescue, and their future looks so bright, they’re going to need shades!

Chase
Gender:
Male
Age:
6 years
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs
Needs:
A loving forever home
Charming Chase!
Chase is a very handsome fellow, who lived on a farm and was used for breeding. Lucky for Chase, his breeder gave him up after deciding he preferred to breed chocolates. Go figure. Even though his name is Chase, he was not given the opportunity to chase anything because he was kept on a chain in a barn. Despite his confinement and lack of attention, he is the sweetest playful, happy pup. He is a big boy who will need to lose just a bit of weight, getting exercise with his people, chasing butterflies, balls, and frisbees. Chase is so looking forward to his new life and is eagerly waiting to discover what it's like to have a home and be a loving member of a family. He will be an amazing companion!

Chip
Gender:
Male
Age:
2 years
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs
Needs:
A loving forever home, fence negotiable
Stunning boy!
Chip is a very energetic boy who loves to play. He is very friendly, loves everyone, and assumes (like so many Labs) that everyone loves him too! He does well on leash and is a good passenger. He is full of fun and loves to run around the play yard and toss his toys. This handsome guy is looking for his forever family to bring him home for summer fun.

Dame Judy and Okie
Gender:
Female/Male bonded pair
Age:
5 years / 3 years
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs
Needs:
A loving forever home
Love a good romance?
Beautiful Dame Judy may not actually be an Academy Award-winning actress, and Handsome Okie might not be an Okie from Muskogee, but what they have in common is that they have both faced life “Against All Odds.” They arrived at a shelter separately, each with their own burdens -- one a frightened stray who refused to walk, and the other battling a painful scab-covered skin issue. It was kismet. They met, they found comfort with one another, they bonded and are now inseparable. Their tale could make an Academy Award winning story, but it needs a happy ending. This sweet, lovable, bonded pair is sure to be Academy Award winners with their new family!

Deke
Gender:
Male
Age:
1 year
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs
Needs:
A loving forever home
Lovable Deke!
Deke is a young, lovable, energetic Lab with a puppy attitude towards life. Right now its all about having fun and going full speed ahead. Deke was found as a stray so we don't know much him. But what we do know is that he is as sweet and lovable as he is silly and rambunctious. He will come with a training addendum which will be a great tool for him and his new family to learn about each other. This handsome boy is ready for his new family or person and can't wait to meet them!

Eddy
Gender:
Male
Age:
10 years
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs
Needs:
A loving forever home with a physical fence
Sweet Senior
THANKS TO A GENEROUS DONOR WHO WANTS TO HELP ALL SENIOR PUPS FIND THEIR FOREVER HOMES, THE ADOPTION FEE IS $125.
Eddy is a loyal companion who offers the perfect balance of gentle energy and total relaxation. He is an adorable senior who clearly never looked at his birth certificate. He has a joyful pep in his step and a wonderfully youthful outlook on life. Eddy loves car rides, short walks, and generally just being wherever his people are. He is quiet, polite, and very well-behaved indoors. Eddy is a gold-medal lounger who loves cozying up on dog beds, sofas, and chairs. He walks beautifully on a leash and never pulls. He prefers a leisurely pace with plenty of time to sniff the roses! Eddy enjoys meeting other dogs and going on pack walks. His calm, peaceful nature means he avoids any doggie drama. He has a lovely play bow! He is highly food-motivated, making him an incredibly quick learner. Eddy has poor vision, the result of a degenerative retinal disease, but he does not let that slow him down for a second! He navigates stairs and furniture like an absolute pro, as long as his humans aren't redecorating frequently. Because he relies on his ears rather than his eyes, he responds wonderfully to voice commands. His ideal family will need to talk to him instead of using hand signals. If you are looking for a sweet, affectionate, and low-maintenance best friend to share your couch and your heart, Eddy is ready to meet you!

Fennec
Gender:
Female
Age:
3 years
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs
Needs:
A loving forever home
Beautiful girl!
Fennec is a lovely silver chocolate girl who is looking forward to spending summer with her new family and enjoying some adventures. She was a stray and no one claimed her so not much information is available. We do know she is good with dogs but prefers larger dogs rather than smaller ones and is unknown with cats. She might not have big upright ears like a fennec fox nor the same coat color, but she is just as striking and beautiful. Fennec is looking forward to getting lots of love, cuddles, pets, and play time and will win over her new family in no time.

Fiona
Gender:
Female
Age:
7 years
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs, No Cats
Needs:
A loving forever home with a physical fence
Princess Fiona
Fiona steals hearts wherever she goes. Whether she is out on the town with her people or living the couch potato life, she is always fun to be around. She is incredibly affectionate, loves to spend time with her people, and is always up for fun adventures with you! Don’t let that smattering of powdered sugar on her face fool you. It just an extra bit of sweetness. Fiona’s an active girl who really enjoys playing frisbee or will happily volunteer to walk a few miles with you as soon as she sees you've grabbed your shoes. She is very good on leash when there isn't anything going on. However, she can get very excited when she sees another dog. She has a high prey drive and will chase cats, rabbits, squirrels, etc. Other than that, she’s just about perfect! This super-lovable girl has mastered the art of balancing adventure with professional-level lounging. Like her namesake, Fiona is a beautiful princess searching for her happily everafter. She doesn't need an ogre to break the curse, just a kind soul with room in their heart for a beautiful, loving pup.

Grandad
Gender:
Male
Age:
10 years
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs, No Cats
Needs:
A loving forever home
Gentle senior
THANKS TO A GENEROUS DONOR WHO WANTS TO HELP ALL SENIOR PUPS FIND THEIR FOREVER HOMES, THE ADOPTION FEE IS $125.
Grandad is doing well in his foster home. He is house trained and his foster mom has never tried to put him in a crate because it is unnecessary. Grandad goes to the door when he needs to go out and enjoys being outside. He does not need a fenced yard but he does like to meander. Grandad sleeps through the night - upstairs - by his choice. The stairs are challenging for him but he can do them. Grandad’s walks are very short and slow, about 5 minutes; he loves to go and wait at the door as leashes are attached. He is a very patient guy. Grandad interacts with the quieter resident dogs and stays out of the way of the most active. He doesn’t need to live with another dog but would like a human companion around most of the time. He spends much of his day on the couch and generally very gingerly climbs onto it. His greatest bursts of energy occur occasionally when he vaults onto the couch. Grandad is a lovely and undemanding companion.

Hershey

Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs, Cats
Needs:
A loving forever home with a physical fence
Have you heard about Hershey?
Hershey is a very, very good boy. He loves to laze around and watch the world go by. He has favorite spots in the shade in the yard or on the dog beds inside his foster home. He passes the time watching the other dogs play and will sometimes get up and try to join in. Hershey loves to watch the squirrels, but he knows he can't catch them, so he just lays still waiting for one to get close. Hershey loves to hold onto his dog bowl with his paws are dares the other dogs to come near. Then he will be a big shot and pretend to eat, only to do it over again. Hershey loves quiet walks with foster mom through the yard and will stop and smell the roses. He's looking for a little Zen in his life right now and is friendly to everyone. He is a master at catching treats mid-air and his record is 10 in a row!

Jacey
Gender:
Female
Age:
9 years
Good with:
Kids 10+, Dogs
Needs:
A loving forever home with a physical fence and another dog
Happy girl just finding her way!
Sweet, gentle Jacey has really started to come out of her shell. She’s still a bit timid, but she’s such a happy girl. When the mood strikes, she’ll join in playtime; and when she’s done, she’s perfectly content relaxing in her crate or curled up in her bed. She travels beautifully in the car and is truly such an easy, delightful dog to have around. Her favorite thing is playing with her best friend, the resident dog! They love to wrestle and run about in the yard. She will need a home with another dog who is just as playful and confident as her newest friend. Although she may never be a super cuddle-bug and will startle if you move too quickly in the house or yard, she is a gentle, kind soul who wants so much to be loved, she's continuing to work on being brave in order get the attention she seems to crave. Jacey is considered hospice due to the malignant growth in her mouth, but someone forgot to tell her. Her zest for life is contagious! Her tail does not stop wagging!
