Labs Available from GGLRR





GRIZZLY : 7 mo old neutered chocolate male 85 lbs


Grizzly was surrendered to GGLRR by a very nice family. The parents bought Grizzly and his brother Dallas (also listed) for their daughter, but when she went away to school, they decided it wasn't fair for the boys to be left alone so much, so they wanted a new home for them. Grizzly is a delightful boy, a bit overweight and adorably clumsy. He is sweet and affectionate and really loves women (probably because he bonded so much with the daughter in his previous family). He likes men, too, of course, but follows his foster mom everywhere and wants to sleep on a dog bed on her side of the bed. He loves other dogs and plays well with the foster's black male lab. Grizzly rides well in the car, but needs some help getting in if you have a high car. He went to Monterey Beach and had a great time off leash, coming back when called, though he didn't venture into the water.....we're sure he's never seen water before. In fact, we suspect Grizzly hasn't been out of his yard much, so the whole world is new to him. He lay down quietly at the foster's feet when they went for coffee and was very well behaved. He does pull on a leash, but an Easy Walk harness helps a lot. He's a gorgeous boy and will be a big dog (probably 100 lbs+). He's housebroken. Grizzly loves toys but will tear them up if they're not sturdy. He will run after a ball, but won't pick it up or return it. Because he's a big boy, we don't think he would be good with very young kids, because he doesn't realize his size and strength....but he'd love kids age 10 and older. He also was fine with the cat at our vet clinic, so we think he'll be OK with cats. Since he's a puppy, he needs to go to a home where someone is around much of the time, as there's a lot he needs to learn and experience. Grizzly is such a sweetheart, though, and will be a fabulous dog for some lucky family. He has been dosed with Advantage, and is presently being administered antibiotic drops for a mild eye inflammation. When Diesel was first picked up, he had terrible leash manners--he pulled like a locomotive. With patience (and a Halter), he's getting much better, and is quickly becoming a pleasure to walk. He is gets along with large & small dogs, and is very good natured, mellow, and affectionate. This big ol' boy is a lover, not a fighter. Diesel is a very sweet, happy, playful boy who loves to be with people. He is very friendly and happy with kids and he does not jump up to greet them. He will take treats gently from your hand and he knows sit, stay and fetch. He loves to go for walks and go for swim. He shows no anxiety and is left alone during the day in the kitchen area - they are using this like a crate. He does not dig or chew on non dog items. For more information on Grizzly, please text or call Rescue Rep Sylvana @ (831) 596-1700. Grizzly is located in Monterey.

DIESEL : 5 year old Neutered Male AKC Black Lab 100 lbs


This is the information from the neighbor who rescued Diesel: Meet Diesel, a handsome 5 year old pure English Labrador who is looking for a loving home. He presently weighs around 100+ lbs, and could stand to lose some weight, even with his stocky-blocky structure. Diesel was living in the backyard & back porch of a Richmond, CA senior couple. He was purchased from a breeder when he was 8 weeks old by the couple's son, who left the dog when he no longer wanted him. Diesel was surrendered to a rescuer in early January 2012. He is now up to date on his vaccinations, neutered, and had a complete grooming. He has been dosed with Advantage, and is presently being administered antibiotic drops for a mild eye inflammation. When Diesel was first picked up, he had terrible leash manners--he pulled like a locomotive. With patience (and a Halter), he's getting much better, and is quickly becoming a pleasure to walk. He is gets along with large & small dogs, and is very good natured, mellow, and affectionate. This big ol' boy is a lover, not a fighter. Diesel is a very sweet, happy, playful boy who loves to be with people. He is very friendly and happy with kids and he does not jump up to greet them. He will take treats gently from your hand and he knows sit, stay and fetch. He loves to go for walks and go for swim. He shows no anxiety and is left alone during the day in the kitchen area - they are using this like a crate. He does not dig or chew on non dog items. If you want to adopt this happy boy, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep Liz at 415-613-6374. Diesel is located in Richmond.

Video of Fred - Click the link to watch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fn69rCzEGEw

FRED : 5 year Old, neutered male, Chocolate Lab, 80 pounds


This is what the owner has to say about Fred:
We have owned Fred his entire life and it is very hard for us to give him up for adoption but my wife and I have changed jobs and we get home from work too late to give him the exercise and attention he deserves. He is a great dog and is very well behaved. He knows sit, stay, down, speak and go to your room. If you tell him no and give him a treat he will stop what he is doing. He walks very well on the leash without pulling and once he knows you he will walk by your side. He is fine with other dogs and he likes to go for a swim. He rides well in the car and has excellent house manners. He is in the garage while we are at work during the day and he sleeps inside the house in the evening.
This is what the foster has to say about Fred:
We have been fostering Fred for a couple of weeks now, and found he is quite the character. He loves to steal from you when he gets in a playful mood. But he only does it when you're watching, as a tease. If you tell him "no" he will stop what he is doing. He knows sit, down, give me your paw, and speak. He will come when you call if he feels like it. So he would need to stay on a leash until he bonds with you. He walks very well on the leash without pulling. He supposedly loves to swim. He rides well in the car and has excellent house manners, except for that he is sometimes unaware of his size when he plays with our dog, so watch your delicate furniture! He has been left alone both outside and inside and in the car for several hours without any problems. He sleeps by our bed at night. He loves to chase cats. He has separation anxiety, which he is slowly getting over, so he will bark and get excited if you startle him. Fred would do best in a quiet environment with no children or cats. He is fine with kids but we would like him to go to a home with older children. He does not bark or have any anxiety when left alone but he will bark when strangers come up to the house. He is a very healthy dog with a beautiful soft coat, big soft brown eyes, and a very handsome head and body. Lab rescue would like Fred to go to a home where people are around most of the day and a home that is fairly quiet. It was hard for Fred to make the transition from his home but two weeks at the foster home and he is doing great. When he switches homes again it will be another transition for Fred. Fred is located in Livermore.

URGENT FOSTER HOME NEEDED FOR GOLDIE

GOLDIE : 16 yr old female spayed yellow lab mix 65 lbs


My name is Goldie and you read that correctly I am 16 yrs young, and still have some pep in my step. I am sure you are wondering how a sweet gal like me ended up as a rescue lab. Well my family lost their home and we had to move in with friends, they did not want me to come into the house so I had to stay outside. My mom loves me so much she could not bear to have me outside, since I had always been an inside/outside gal, so she called GGLRR asked if they could help find me a home. I have lived with my mom for twelve years; she rescued me when I was four years old from an animal shelter in Maryland. My previous owners had not been very nice to me, but my mom helped me to trust again. I get along well with children of all ages. I am housetrained. I like to take walks and if I am on leash I can become a little frisky, but if you tell me “no” and keep me moving I will follow your lead. I am just not too sure about cats, so maybe a home without them would be best. I am still an energetic dog. I do have a bit of arthritis, but that doesn’t keep me from taking long walks and enjoying the day, and then going home and taking a nice leisurely nap at your feet. I do have separation anxiety; I need to go to a home where someone is home with me, and be the only dog. I also know my commands pretty well, if you call me I will come to you. I do need to tell you I am not really fond of riding in the car. I am up to date on my shots and I am located in Petaluma. I am sure we can have some fun and special times if you were to adopt and welcome a nice gal like me into your home. For more information on this sweet gal,please call Rescue Rep Judy Taylor @ 707-480-8469.

DALLAS : 7 month old neutered yellow male 76 lbs


Dallas was surrendered to GGLRR by a very nice family. The parents bought Dallas and his brother for their daughter, but when she went away to school, they decided it wasn't fair to the boys to be left alone so much and thought they deserved a family that could give them more attention. Dallas is completely housebroken and was undoubtedly used to sleeping on someone's bed, as he tries to do that in his foster home. But he's a big boy and still has some growing to do, so he's learning to sleep on a dog bed NEXT to the foster's bed. He will sit for a treat and takes treats nicely, but doesn't yet know any other commands. Dallas LOVES toys and carries them all over the house. He loves chew toys too, and doesn't seem to chew on anything inappropriate. He does pull hard on a leash, but does pretty well on the Easy Walk harness. He adores his people and wants to be with them all the time. He is a leaner and loves being petted and loved. His tail wags all the time and he actually tries to be a lap dog. He is getting along with the foster's lab, but initially greeted him warily. We have found that he does this on leash walks as well.....clearly he hasn't been taken on walks around other dogs and he just doesn't know what to do. He will often growl when first meeting other dogs, but it isn't because he's aggressive. He will need a patient person who is willing to take him on lots of walks so he learns that other dogs aren't scary. He is now getting along quite well with the foster's lab. He's showing signs of wanting to play with him (puppy play posture and wagging tail). We suspect the only other dog Dallas ever knew was his brother, so it will take time for him to understand how to interact with other dogs. Dallas would probably be happier being an only dog. He is still a puppy, inspite of his size (we suspect he'll be a 90 lb dog when he's full grown), and can jump up on you in excitement, though his fosters are working on this. As a result, if there are children in the home, they should be over the age of 10. He will chase a cat, so needs a cat free home. Dallas is a sweet boy who needs the right family to make him the best boy he can be. He needs to go to an experienced dog person....but the rewards will be great! He's a very nice boy and is stunningly good looking. Right at the moment, he's a bit less good looking though. When he came to us, he had a condition where his lower eyelids came up too high and actually turned in so that the fur rubbed against his eyes. Our vet corrected that and he'll look wonderful again in a few weeks. Right now he has the fur under his eyes shaved and there are a few stitches. He hopes you won't mind this temporary condition. He feels much better without the fur rubbing on his gorgeous big brown eyes, but he hates wearing "the dreaded cone." But it will be worth it! If you think Dallas might be a good fit for your family,please call Rescue Rep Judy @ (831) 261-3409. Dallas is located in Carmel.

NORBERT : 5 years old, neutered male yellow Lab, 75 lbs


Norbert is a playful, affectionate boy, full of energy and high spirits. His family acquired him from a breeder in North Carolina when he was a puppy, and love him so much that they have taken him with them on two moves to Europe. Norbert was joined by his owner's little boy almost three years ago, and now that the family must move to Europe yet again, they have decided that it would be best for Norbert to find a new family to love and care for him as devotedly as they have. Norbert has been well trained and knows sit, down, stay, come, and even rolls over on his back when you say, "Bang!". He does not chew, dig, nor counter-surf and has nice house manners. He walks well on the lead, though he does get excited when he sees other dogs. Because Norbert still has the energy of a younger Lab, we think he would do best in a home where there is a good-sized yard for him to run and play, and active family members with the time to devote to giving him consistent exercise. We feel he would do best in a home where there is someone around most of the time, as he is used to and loves his people's company. We also think Norbert would enjoy having another dog as a playmate. He is very gentle and deferential to his owners' toddler, but he still jumps on visitors (out of exuberance, which can be addressed with training and adequate exercise), so we think he'd do best with children 6 or older who have been taught to respect dogs. Norbert has lived with cats and his owners say he ignored them. He is completely house-trained, up to date on his vaccinations and microchipped. Norbert is a beautiful, healthy, good-natured boy, who would make a great family dog, or buddy to an active person or couple able to give him the time, attention and guidance all Labs need to thrive. Norbert is located in Sausalito.

If you are interested in this fun-loving young Lab, please call or text GGLRR Rep., Kathleen, at (415) 706-5868.

COCO : 11-month old, spayed Female, Black Lab mix, 55 pounds


Coco is a sweet, active 11-month old. Purchased from the breeder as a 5-month old puppy, she is on the smaller side and is likely a mix with shepard or border collie, although she's all black and looks very "Lab-y". (Pictures don't do her justice.) Her owner can no longer care for her as she deserves with two other dogs in the house, a busy family and and a full-time job. She is a adorable, loving girl who is a little starved for affection as she's spent too much time in the back yard by herself and slept in the garage at night. (One of the family dogs does not care for her...) Coco learned to use the doggie-door and is house-trained. She loves meeting new people although a little shy at first, and very shy when greeted by dogs new to her (she'll duck behind her human's legs). She'll benefit from some training classes as she is still very young--this will help her to learn how to meet and greet new dog friends. Lab Rescue would like her to go to a dog-experienced home to help her gain confidence. She would be fine with older children in the household--she still jumps up in her puppy exuberance so would not be recommended for smaller children. Coco should go to a home where someone will devote time to her training and will include her in family activities. She's a love bug and will be a wonderful family member. Coco is located in Petaluma.
**Update** Coco has been spayed and is doing well recovering from that procedure. She has also spent more time "out and about" with other dogs in her foster environment and has greatly improved her social skills. She's still very young so is learning fast, as puppies do. Her fosters report what a sweet girl she is and that she will do just fine in her new home. To adopt this sweet girl, please contact GGLRR Rep Allison at 415-806-2490000000000

HERMAN : 10 mo old black, neutered male, 65 lbs


Herman was surrendered to his vet because his owners were elderly and Herman was just too much for them to handle. They made the mistake many people make in not understanding the effervescence of a young lab. He's a great dog....young, happy, energetic....everything a young lab is supposed to be. But he needs to go to someone who WANTS a young lab and is willing to take the time to work with him and train him. He's a very good looking boy with a lovely coat and smiling brown eyes. Herman is house broken and is good with other dogs. He loves wrestling and playing with his foster's young lab. Herman loves to play tug and chew on chew toys. He doesn't play ball or go after a frisbee, but that doesn't mean that he can't learn. Herman has a great appetite and has no issues sharing his food with other dogs. He is very affectionate, and given the opportunity, loves to climb on you or stand on you......anything to be close. He is a very active boy so we don't think he should be with children under 10, but he would be good with older kids who are used to dogs. He knows sit and has a soft mouth when taking treats. He pulls on a leash, but will do very well with an Easy Walk harness. He loves to jump into the car and really loves the foster's big Ford truck....hops right in and is ready to go somewhere.....anywhere.....sure that wherever he goes, it will be lots of fun. Herman is a very happy dog and will make a great dog for someone who wants to work with him. He really wants to be with his people, so we want him to go to a home where he is with them most of the time. And he will need lots of exercise. He should probably go to a home without cats or chickens, as he likes to chase them.....but then, as we said, he's a young, playful lab. If you think Herman is the dog for you, please text or call Rescue Rep Sylvana @ (831) 596-1700. Herman is located in the Monterey area.

SHADOW : 7 Year Old, Neutered Male, Black Lab / Australian Sheppard, 85 pounds


Lab Rescue was contacted by the shelter as they had a stray and he was not doing well in the shelter. The owner came to the shelter to identify him and he decided to surrender him to the shelter. Shadow is a great dog and loves to be with people. It seems he would get out of the back yard as he was left alone in the backyard for 14 hours a day. They did not have a secure fence so he would get out so he could be with people. He has been around other dogs and cats and he does fine. Small or large dogs. He is quite active for his age and he loves to play ball and he will bring it back and drop it at your feet. He loves to go for car rides and he would be a dog that you could walk off leash as he will walk right next to your side. If he does wander off he will come right back to check in with you. Shadow will walk well on leash and he will sit, lay down and stay. He loves to go for a swim and a run in the park. A great day for Shadow would be a nice walk and belly rubs in the afternoon. He does not jump up on people so he would be fine in a home with kids. (He came from a home with older children.) Shadow is very motivated by treats so it is very easy to train. He is a dog that is always smiling; when I am around him I catch myself smiling along with him - he is a very happy boy. He is housebroken - sleeping on his dog bed through the night. He is a very healthy dog. Shadow is located in Livermore. If you want to adopt this happy loving boy, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep, Liz at 415-613-6374.

BOO : 9 years old, spayed female, black Lab mix / Border Collie, 77 pounds
(Boo is on a diet and needs to lose 20 pounds - she has lost a few already!)

Boo was an owner surrender to the shelter as they lost their home and they could not take her to the apartment they were moving into. She is a very sweet girl who needs to lose a few pounds. We have her on a doggie diet and she has slimmed down already! She is very well trained and will sit, stay, leave it and will walk well on a leash. She is a will do anything for a treat but the treat should be a green bean! She lives to play ball and you would never know she was nine years old and overweight as she can out rum them all for her ball. She loves to go for car rides and the main thing she loves to go is snuggle at your feet. She is housetrained and will sleep on her dog bed through the night. She is not a jumper on people and she would be a dog that you could walk off leash and she will stay next to your side. She will play with other dogs and has no issues but when she has a ball she does not care for the other dogs. Boo would be fine in a home with children but we suggest not young kids as they may be too rough for her. We are not sure about Boo with cats. She is a very healthy girl despite her weight. Boo is located on Petaluma.

If you want to adopt this loveable girl, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep, Liz at 415-613-6374.

KAYA : 8 years old, spayed female, black Lab/ Border Collie mix, 55 pounds


The Sonoma shelter contacted Lab Rescue after Kaya got out of her yard and was picked up by the shelter. The shelter contacted the owners who told the shelter to just put her down (why do some people even get dogs?!). We evaluated Kaya and snatched her up right away as she is a very sweet dog. This is what the foster has to say about Kaya: Kaya is a very loving, affectionate, mellow dog. She is cute as can be with her wavy hair and he baby doll face. She loves walks and hikes yet is quite content to just be close and cuddle up with her mom and or dad. She trains best with positive reinforcement, loves and hugs being the most motivating factor or her. She wants to please be shown what to do. Kaya gets along well with other dogs and loves playing with them in the yard. Young rough dogs are too much for her. She is fully house trained and has full access to the house day and night. She loves to sleep and relax in her crate - she leaves the door open and she comes and goes as she pleases. Kaya LOVES to swim and loves to go for walks. She is good on the leash but will pull when she sees a cat. (She should be walked with a gentle leader.) She should be in a home without cats, as she will chase them and barked at them in the shelter. She is very loving and she will put her paws on you very gently to be petted. She can be placed in a home with children; she has grown up with kids. She loves to play with other dogs (there was another dog in her previous home) and really loves to play fetch and play with her toys. She is a very sweet girl who deserves a family that can spend time with her instead of leaving her alone in a backyard. She is updated on her shots and she us a very healthy girl. Kaya is located in Petaluma.

If you want to adopt this sweet loveable girl, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep Liz at 415-613-6374.

JENNIE : 10 Year Old Spayed Black Female Lab 70 Pounds


Jennie was scheduled to be put down and the shelter contacted Lab Rescue to see if we would take her. She was a stray but she was microchipped and the shelter found the owner. The owner told the shelter she got out of the yard and they did not want her any longer.

Jennie just turned ten in January 2012. She was with the owner since she was a young dog. She has been an inside dog and is housetrained. She gets along with cats and kids and just is a very happy girl. She loves to go for walks and she will walk by your side. Car rides are one of her favorite things to do but you will need to help her into the car - she is done jumping. She sleeps on her dog bed at night and truly loves any affection she can get. Jennie has a very calming temperament and you can't understand why the owners decided to let her go. She has very nice leash manners and will do what you ask her to do - sit, down, stay. She is a little interested in ball playing and swimming but at her age you would not want to overdo it. She is in great health, updated on her shots and ready for her forever home. She is located in Menlo Park.

If you are interested in this sweet special girl, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep Liz at 415-613-6374.

MAGGIE : 9 year old spayed black female 66 lbs


Maggie was dumped by her owner and ended up in the Bakersfield shelter. She's about the sweetest girl you'll ever meet. She came to us with two huge benign fatty tumors, which inhibited her walking, and we removed them....so now she walks perfectly and she's completely healed. She also had a hard time holding her urine (probably the reason she was dumped), but all she needed was a couple of small pills a day (and she'll need them for life) and she has perfect control and will have no further problems. The pills cost $27 for a month's supply. Now for the good stuff!! Maggie is a doll of a dog. Her foster family, who've had her for almost a month, call her "Waggie Maggie" because her tail is always wagging. She loves everyone she meets and will drop to the ground and roll over for a belly rub if you have the time to give her one. She is completely housebroken and sleeps through the night on a dog bed next to the foster's bed (and sometimes even gets on the foster's male dog's bed and snuggles up with him). She adores other dogs and is also fine with cats. She's lived with kids and is great with them. Maggie loves to go for walks and loves to ride in the car, but she needs a boost to get into the car. She still has her frisky moments too, but is basically a very calm girl. She is a bit of a picky eater, but loves her treats. Maggie is incredibly mellow and affectionate and would be a great dog to take to work with you. She likes nothing more than to follow you around and be close to you. She does not jump, dig or bark and no counter surfing either. She's absolute perfection and we think her grey markings make her oh so distinguished looking. When you look into those huge brown eyes, looking back at you with love, you can't help but adore this girl. Maggie is located in Monterey.

If you'd like to make Maggie part of your family, please call Rescue Rep Judy @ (831) 261-3409.

BUDDY : 2 Year Old Neutered Yellow Lab / Sheppard Mix Male 50 lbs


Buddy is a very sweet active boy. The family rescued Buddy when their father passed away and Buddy went to the shelter in Oregon. They do not have the time or money to care for Buddy so they need to find him a good home. The have owned Buddy for two months and he has settled right into their family. They have another Lab that Buddy loves to play with. Buddy is the more submissive dog in the pack and all he wants to do is play. He loves to be around their children who are 9, 4 & 2 and he does not jump up on them. He stays outside with their other dog during the day but when he comes in the house in the evening he settles right down next to the kids and wants to be their playmate. He is housetrained and sleeps on his dog bed at night. He loves to play with other dogs and has not had any issues with any other dogs. We are not sure about Buddy with cats but we feel he would be curious and could be trained to be around them. Buddy will come when called and he does ok on a leash - he needs some more work on this but he is very excited right now. He knows sit, stay, down, heel and fetch. We are not sure if Buddy likes to swim but he does like to go for car rides. He does not jump up on you and he will take treats gently from your hand. Buddy is not a barker and does not have any phobias. He is still a puppy so he may chew on non dog items. He does not get out on a regular basis so burning off some of his energy will help him. He is a very healthy dog and updated on his shots. Buddy is located in Oakley.

If you are interested in this nice fun active boy, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep, Liz at 415-613-6374.

JESSE : 4 Years Old, Black Lab-Sheppard Mix, Neutered Male, 70 lbs


My name is Jesse and I have had a rough start in life. I was left in the back yard for a long time and did not get fed on a regular basis. (I was slowing starving to death.) I am a very good boy and only wanted to please my owners but I am not sure what happened. My owners were reported to the Humane Society and a nice police man came into the yard and rescued me. I am now in a great foster home and getting fed everyday 2-3 meals per day. I get to go on pack walks with many other dogs on and off leash. I sleep in a crate at night and I have not had any accidents in my foster moms home. I need to gain around 10 -15 pounds but other than that I am a very healthy dog. I would love to be adopted into a home with another dog but that is not necessary. I do need an adopter that will get me out each day for regular exercise. I walk well on the leash, love to play ball, love to play with other dogs, love all my new adventures since I am out of the back yard! I am a very smart dog and learn very fast. I do not have any food issues and I will take treats from your hand very gently. I do not jump up and would love a home with older kids. I have not been around cats so I am not sure about sharing a home with them. I am so happy to be fed on a regular basis and happy I am out of the back yard and with a pack again. If you would like to meet me and see what a great dog I am please call the rescue rep below. Jesse is located in Pittsburg.

Labs and Lab Mixes Available from Individuals and Other Rescues/Shelters

Search-rescues-shelters

GGLRR’s website provides links to other rescue groups and shelters to help you find a Lab whether from our rescue organization or another. We also have listed Labs in urgent need from other rescue groups and shelters (click to see additional Labs on next page). It’s all about finding homes for Labs-in-need and matching people with just the right Lab!

Some rescue/shelter sites have excellent search capabilities so you can specify your preferred breed (Labrador Retriever!), age, sex, and location.  Here are 3 of the largest aggregated search sites:

Adopt a Pet (search for Labs in many shelters and rescue organizations)
PetFinder (search for Labs in many shelters and rescue organizations)
PetHarbor (search for Labs in all California shelters)


Adoption Pending (no new calls being accepted on these Labs)

GGLRR wants to make sure people have the latest status about Labs they may have seen on our website so have a category called "adoption pending" which is just like home sales pending, e.g. no new offers being accepted but still working through the details with the expection that it will close successfully. Most of the time, our "adoption pending" turns into "adopted", so will only accept calls in the rare case when a Lab is moved back to "available".

So why would a Lab adoption be "pending"? When GGLRR places a Lab in a home, we want to make sure it's a great match! Thus, we have a trial period to find out whether all is well with cats and other pets welcoming the new family member. Usually in just a day or two, the adopter knows it's clearly going to work out, but we take the time to be sure. We also move Labs to "Pending" when we've received so many calls about a particular Lab (especially puppies!) that the Rep knows that one of the callers will be a match and doesn't want to get other people's hopes up by accepting more calls.







CISSY : 1-2 year old spayed yellow female mix 38 lbs


Cissy is a mini-lab......all lab in personality and in looks, but little. She was a stray in the Bakersfield shelter and NO ONE can figure out why. Her foster mom says, "This girl is a winner." She's a total sweetheart....playful, very social and inquisitive...and very trusting and affectionate with everyone she meets. She doesn't bark or whine and is really very polite and ladylike. She is totally housebroken and has excellent house manners. Cissy plays really well with the foster's two big male labs and enjoys them immensely even though they're more than twice her size. She has met little tiny dogs too and loves them as well. She is also great with cats. Cissy will sit on command and walks beautifully on a leash. She loves to play with the rope toy....chasing it, shaking it, and playing "keep away" with it. It's her favorite by far. She'll chase a ball or a kong and pounce on it, but then loses interest....so retrieving is not her strong suit. She is such a love and her foster mom says she is just a totally happy, easy dog. She plays hard, but then completely settles down and can be calm in an instant. She loves hanging out with her fosters and watching TV, cuddled up. We definitely want this little girl to go to a home where she is with her people most of the time, as she loves being close. We also would like her to go to a home where there is another dog, as she loves her doggie playmates so much. Cissy is located in the Monterey area.

BROOKLYN : 7 Year Old, Spayed Female, Chocolate lab, 65 pounds


This is what the owner has to say about Brooklyn:

Brooklyn is a chocolate female lab that I obtained from a friend of mine due to the fact he has a young child and another on the way and wasn't able to give her the attention she deserved. (They purchased Brooklyn through a breeder in the central valley.) I have known Brooklyn practically here whole life and used to dog sit for my buddy. I have had her for the past five months and she is a great dog. Brooklyn has such a cute face we call her "Little Brown Bear." She is trained and minds very well, sits, stays, down, heel, will not pull on the leash when we go for a walk and will not step off the curb unless you tell her to. She loves to play a good game of fetch and of course loves to swim. She will jump right in the car and go for a car ride - one of her favorite things to do. She is so well behaved she does what you ask of her and never needs to be corrected. She sleeps at the foot of our bed on her dog bed through the night - she is completely housetrained. She has grown up around kids and she has no issues but she would be better placed in a home with older children. She has not been around cats so we are not sure about cats but she has been around other dogs. She has the best temperament - very sweet and playful and loves to be petted and cuddled. I am having to give her up for adoption as I own another lab and she has nipped him twice over food. She plays with toys with my lab and wrestles with him and there has never been a problem, it is a food issue and it has been random. They eat next to each other and 99% of the time there has never been an issue - just for those two incidents. Any human can take hr food bowl away from her, any bone or toy. Brooklyn is a very healthy dog. Brooklyn is active for her age, loves to play ball - she is a very sweet girl. Lab rescue would like her placed in a home with no other dogs and older children. She is very healthy and in great shape. She is located in Santa Rosa.

KODY : 9 Year Old, Neutered Male, Black Lab, 70 pounds


Kody was an owner surrender to Lab rescue. The husbands wife died, Kody was her dog, and he got a new girlfriend and she said Kody had to go. She would not let Kody live in the house any longer so Kody was banned to the back yard. We went and met Kody and saw his condition and immediately got him into the Vet for a well check and into a foster home where he is a very happy boy! He lives inside the foster moms home with another dog and her cats. He sleeps on his bed through the night and is completely housetrained. He is an AKC registered lab and the owner has had him since he was 8 weeks old. They purchased him from a breeder in the central valley. Kody just loves to be around people young and old. He has grown up with kids and he is very gentle. Kody is fairly well trained he knows sit, stay, down, heel, fetch and leave it. He will walk on leash without pulling but the previous owner has not had him out for walks in a while so he will need a refresher course on leash walking. Kody loves to go for car rides but he is not much of a swimmer. When the weather was bad they would put him in a crate in the garage at night - he is fine if you need to use a crate with him. Since we rescued Kody from his situation he has not stopped smiling as you can see from his pictures. (When we met him he was a very sad dog and would look in the windows not sure why he was no longer part of the family!) Kody had the works and the Vet and he has all his shots, senior blood panel, heartworm test, microchip and he passed with flying colors. He just needs to gain a few pounds - he was not being fed enough food to keep his weight up. Kody is located in Walnut Creek.

MILO : 5 Month Old, Neutered Male, black Lab / Sheppard / Border Collie, 30 pounds


This is what the owner has to say about MILO:

Milo was found as a stray near lake Shasta and the shelter contacted Lab Rescue. They can't get young dogs adopted in their area. We met him and took him into our program. Milo is the sweetest puppy and very well behaved for a young dog. He listens to commands and will sit and stop what he is doing when told. He is not a crazy hyper dog but he will run around and play like a puppy. Milo loves to be with people and just wants to cuddle. He is fine with all dogs and would be fine in a home with cats. He loves to ride in the car and just curls up and takes a nap. He does not chew on non-dog items. He will need help with the housetraining but he has been clean in his kennel. Milo needs to go to a home with structure and training - as all puppies do. He needs to go to a home that has time to devote to his training and a home that will be active with him. He is a gentle puppy so he could go to a home with small children. He is very healthy and has all his shots. Milo is located in Petaluma.

COWBOY : 4 year old, Neutered Yellow male, 95 lbs


Cowboy’s family has to move and can’t take him with them. He has been living with his “human grandparent’s” for the last two weeks and they have three labs already and just can’t have one more. His family has had him since he was a puppy, and described him as a social loving lab that loves to be with you. He is wonderful with children has been around all ages from two years to seventeen years. Cowboy is housebroken and has perfect manners when he is in the home. He will sleep all night on his own bed in their room and he is also crate trained. Cowboy needs a little work on his commands but he will come when called, if he needs a correction a simple “no” will do. He has not been around cats to much so we are unsure of how he will react to them. Cowboy loves to ride in the car and as most labs he loves to swim and he takes treats softly. He does not jump on people when he greets them. Cowboy loves to play with other dogs and will pull strongly until he gets to them to play if he is on leash, so he will need a little work on correcting this. He can bark or whine a little when left alone, so we would like to see him go to a home where someone is home part of the day. He is a very healthy dog, updated on his shots and microchipped. He is located in Petaluma.

RYDER : 2-3 year old, neutered black male, 68 lbs


Ryder was a stray in Bakersfield and we were surprised to find that he was already neutered. Most of the strays are not. On top of that, he's GORGEOUS...a very handsome boy with a blocky head, athletic body and great otter tail that's always wagging (it's a blur in the photo!). He's a wonderful dog and clearly he has had some training. His fosters love him, and he settled into their home very quickly, following them both everywhere they go. He loves other dogs and gets along great with the foster's black male lab....who gave Ryder all of an hour or two to adjust to his new surroundings and then it was PLAY TIME!! He will fetch the ball and toys and bring them back to you. Ryder knows how to sit, lie down, and doesn't pull when walking on a leash. He's also a very affectionate boy, loving to have his head rubbed. When you rub his head or under his chin, he just mellows out, often rolling over to give you more of him to rub. He is house broken and sleeps through the night on a dog bed next to the foster's bed. He does counter surf, but that is easily corrected and his fosters are working on it. Of course, if you don't leave any food on your counters, there is no problem....Ryder's way of helping you have a clean kitchen. He loves to ride in the car and just lays down and enjoys the ride. He can jump into and out of the car easily with no assistance. He takes treats gently and loves his food...typical lab!! He is OK with cats, but the cat we tested him with just sat there, so not sure what he'd do if one ran from him. And we think he would be great with kids....though because he is young and strong and can jump up on you in excitement initially, no really young kids. He would love an active family that can take him on long walks and hikes and we're sure he'll be a great water dog. We definitely want him to go to a family where he is with someone most of the day

DANE : 3 year old neutered black male 70 lbs


Dane was rescued from the Bakersfield shelter and he's an incredible boy. He looks to us to be a lab/great dane mix, one of the nicest mixes EVER. Dane is a calm, friendly boy, who has clearly had a rough life....but he holds no grudges. He came to us with two infected and broken canine teeth, which have been removed (he doesn't seem to miss them at all...scoffs down his kibble with no issues). He also had a severe ear infection, which has also been successfully treated. And he has lots of scars on his legs which will soon be covered over. He's also 15-20 pounds underweight....a condition that is only temporary, since he LOVES to eat. Toys and balls are foreign to him....he's clearly never had any. So his life is now beginning and he's enjoying every minute of it. He loves his fosters and gets along great with their male lab. He just wants to be near his people all the time. He only knows sit, and will sit for a treat, taking it very gently. He walks really well on a leash. Dane loves to be petted and hugged. He will put his head up against you, hoping you'll hold it in your hands and give him a good rub. He loves to get down on the floor with you and be massaged. Sometimes when you're petting him, he lets out a big sigh, as if to say, "Finally, someone loves me." We can't tell you what a love this boy is. He follows his foster's lab's cues and pees where he pees. He's had no accidents in the house, though we're sure he's never been IN a house before. He just wants so much to do the right thing. He's not a chewer or a digger. He's curious but cautious about anything new, but very happy to explore it if you tell him it's OK. He needs to be built up as far as exercise is concerned.....as he gains much needed weight and muscle, his stamina will increase. He travels well in the car. Dane is a lovely boy and responds gratefully to good treatment. He will love his new family completely. We think he will be fine with children, as he doesn't jump up and he's very mellow and calm. He really doesn't want to be left alone much (though currently he is fine left in a crate for an hour or two when his fosters go out...he just snoozes). We would like him to go to a home where someone is with him most of the time. He'd be a great dog to take to work with you too. Oh, and he's good with cats. We think he's gorgeous and he'll be stunningly good looking once he gains the weight.

SUNDAY : 1-2 year old neutered black male 58 lbs


Sunday was found wandering the streets by a nice family who took him in. They had him at their home for three weeks, but were unable to keep him and reached out to GGLRR for help. Sunday is a great looking boy with a lovely coat and great dark brown eyes. He's painfully thin and needs to gain a good 10-15 pounds, which he'll be happy to do, since he loves to eat. He's a very young, energetic, lovable guy who really wants to belong to a family. The family named him Sunday because that's the day of the week they found him, but he'll be happy to be called whatever you like. This boy is a sweet boy, but he really hasn't had much training at all. He pulls on a leash, but with an Easy Walk harness, he will be fine. Most of it is that he's just so excited to be going somewhere. This is a boy that needs to be heavily exercised and he'd be a GREAT jogging partner. He's great with other dogs, including very small dogs and he played really nicely with 1 and 15 year old chihuahuas when they tried to play with him. The people who found him also have a very antisocial husky mix and he even managed to win over that dog. We think he really should be in a home with another dog that he can play with, as that's great exercise too. He is not a digger, but he will bark to get attention. This comes from being tossed around a lot, and once he knows he's finally home and that his people will pay attention to him, he'll be fine. He doesn't like to be crated. He's working on his housebreaking (it only takes a few days of tethering him to you as you move through the house) and soon will have that down too. He LOVES to swim. This boy is a very typical lab...happy and joyous to be with his people and to be having fun. He needs to go to an active family though....and if there are children, they should be older, as he can jump up in enthusiasm. He loves to play with dog toys, but pick up your shoes when he's around, because he sees them as toys too. All of this is just training. And no cats.....Sunday will chase them if they run.

FREDDY : 2 year old neutered black male 55 lbs


Freddy was a stray in Bakersfield and we loved his enthusiasm and wagging tail. He is a very handsome boy, but is very, very thin. We love his eyes! He needs to gain 10-15 lbs and will be quite stunning when he does. He's a real athlete who absolutely LOVES to retrieve tennis balls and he'll do it all day long if your arm holds out. He's in a foster home with several other dogs and does OK, but he can be a bit pushy, so we think he would be better as an only dog where he can have all of the attention for himself. He can be a real cuddly boy with his people, and loves attention. He knows sit and shake and will pull hard on a leash, but is much better with an Easy Walk harness. He clearly hasn't had much training or attention so he will need to go to an experienced dog person who will work with him to make him the great dog we know that he is. He would love to be someone's jogging buddy...but wherever he goes, he'll need lots of good exercise. He's doing so much better after only 3 days in his foster home and he wants to learn....he just needs to have consistent training. He would be fine with older kids but he's just too exuberant for young ones. Freddy is located in the Monterey area.

TURBO : 7 year old neutered black male 80 lbs


Turbo's family lost their home and they reached out to their vet for help, as they knew they couldn't keep this amazing dog. Their vet called GGLRR and we were more than happy to take him. Turbo is a gorgeous guy with that classic blocky English style head and stocky body (though he should be a wee bit less stocky...he'd be perfect at 75 lbs). He is very affectionate and loves to give kisses. He really loves attention and sticks close by his foster mom all the time. Turbo is now housebroken and seems to have good house manners. His fosters leave him in a crate when they leave him for short periods and he doesn't whine or bark. He will bark to alert you that someone is coming, but he stops immediately when told to stop. He sleeps through the night with no issues. He rides well in the car and loves to go with you, loving it if he can have his head or nose out the window. He comes when called, sits on command, takes treats gently, and also knows how to shake hands. Such a smart boy and he's so food motivated that we think there's nothing he can't learn if you reward him with food. He's a tad bit clumsy, but in an endearing way....typical of big boys. He is in great physical shape and loves going on walks and hikes, and he walks just fine without pulling if you use an Easy Walk harness. He's fascinated by quail and small critters when out hiking. He will retrieve and bring the ball back, but he's not avid about it. Turbo is OK with other dogs for the most part, but definitely will chase cats and MUST go to a cat free home....they're just too enticing. We think Turbo should be an only dog because he really doesn't want to share affection with another dog...he wants it all for himself and deserves that. We just can't stress how CUTE this boy is....such a love! We think he'd be great with kids, as he doesn't jump up on anyone and loves everyone he meets. We really want him to go to a home where someone is with him much of the day, though he would be a good dog to take to work as well. He's a terrific boy and he's waiting for a new family to love him forever. Turbo is located in Carmel.

BELLA : 6 Month Old non-spayed Black Female 30 lbs
(Will coordinate spaying and micro chip after adoption)

Bella’s family has decided that they do not have the time for this high spirited little lady. She is very playful as puppies can be, and has a very sweet nature. She is in a foster home at this time and gets along well with their dog. Bella is doing well on her housetraining, and sleeps in her crate at night for 8 hrs. She knows sit pretty well, and is learning to walk on leash. Bella will chew on non dog items as most puppies do, so plenty of dog chew toys should be available to her. She will bark or whine at first when left alone, but will settle down. Bella has a lot of energy and will jump on people when you first meet, with proper training this can be changed. Because Bella is such an active girl we feel she should go to a home where someone is home most of the time to give her plenty of exercise and work with her to become a good canine citizen. She should also go to a home with older children, in her excitement to greet she may knock younger ones down. Bella is healthy and up to date on her shots and is located in Berkeley.

SHADOW : 8 year old neutered black male mix 85 lbs


Shadow has been on the website for quite a while and we can't understand why. He's a very sweet, loving dog who really needs a home. You won't find a nicer, sweeter boy anywhere. Shadow currently lives in Pacific Grove with his owner. Unfortunately his person's home is now being rented out and Shadow and his "mom" now live in a very small room on the lower level. Shadow once had the whole yard, but now only has a very small outside area and his person works very long hours. She tries to get home to take him for a walk every day, but sometimes she can't and he's alone as much as 14 hours at a time. Everyone agrees that Shadow needs a new home where he will have the attention he deserves. Shadow is mostly lab and we're hard pressed to see what else is in there. But he certainly acts all lab. And he has the most expressive, big brown eyes, that just ask for love. He is completely house trained and can be left in the house without doing any damage to anything for hours at a time (though we hope he no longer has to spend all those hours alone). Shadow loves his walks and is in excellent shape, though he could stand to lose a few pounds. He pulls on a leash when he first starts a walk (he doesn't get many walks these days and sooooooo loves to go on them), but walks well with an Easy Walk harness. Shadow isn't an old dog. He will be nine in February. He has lots of good dog energy, but he's very sweet. He loves to be loved and will sit next to you and nudge you for attention. He's extremely affectionate. If you're busy, he'll just lie next to you and wait for you to have time for him. And if you let him sleep on the bed with you at night, he'll love you forever....though he's fine on a dog bed next to the bed, if those are your rules. He knows sit and down and does them both beautifully. He comes when called.....but if he's out in a great place, like the beach, he might not come as well as he should.... getting to go on a big outing is just so exciting that sometimes he forgets to come. But if you have tasty treats, I think that will be easily trained. He also needs a secure gate to his yard, because Shadow has been known to let himself out by opening the latch, so he can go looking for people to play with. He never goes far....just to find some people to hang with. He so wants to have people around him more. Shadow is not a swimmer, but likes to wade in the water. He's good with other dogs and unknown with cats, though he'd prefer to be an only dog. He is not interested in balls and toys....just people and food. Shadow loves to go places in the car and is fine being left in the car alone while you go in to run errands. He just loves to go with. Shadow would be fine with kids. He's very healthy and up to date on all of his vaccinations. All he needs is a loving home where his people can have more time and space for him. Shadow is located in Pacific Grove.

HENRY : 2 year old neutered black male 56 lbs


Henry was pulled from the Bakersfield shelter by a vet who volunteers for GGLRR. He had a gaping wound that required immediate medical attention (behind his front leg). After weeks of treatment, he has only a small spot left that is healing very well and he's finally ready to go to his forever home. Henry is a darling sweet boy with huge soulful brown eyes. He is shy and gentle and gets along great with other dogs and cats. Henry walks well on a leash, he knows sit, and he will give your hand gentle kisses and nuzzle his head against you for attention. He adores having his ears massaged. His energy level is improving as his wound heals and he lets his fosters clip and clean the hair around the wound, resting quietly as they used scissors and electric clippers....grateful for the attention. He is house trained and sleeps on a sofa in the foster's bedroom, but he would be fine on a dog bed next to his person's bed. He will bark to alert, but is not a persistent barker. When he walks quickly or steps down, he limps a bit, as it pulls on the wound....and that may be permanent because of the scar tissue.....but it doesn't bother him at all. He plays actively with the foster's lab and even played well with their crotchety old cattle dog. He loves to play tug of war with the foster's lab, especially if it involves the soft duck. Henry will retrieve, but won't give the ball back to you (that will take some training). He's a thin boy with a constantly wagging tail and he is a wonderful small size. He clearly hasn't ever been introduced to water and was nervous when his fosters took him to the beach...but waves can be intimidating for a dog that doesn't understand water yet. There are so many new experiences that Henry needs to have and we're looking for loving, patient people to show him that the world is a good place. His fosters adore him, as does everyone who meets him. We would like someone to be around with Henry most of the time. He would be an easy dog to take to work with you. He does very well in the car. Henry is located in the Monterey area.

ZOEY : 18 mo old spayed yellow female 42 lbs


Zoey is a darling little girl that we rescued from the Bakersfield shelter. She was a stray, so we don't know anything about her background, but her joyous nature and love of life made her irresistible. She may have a touch of something else in her, but she acts very much like a lab. She's in great shape and is full grown. We think she's just darling. Zoey has lots of energy and will need an active home, but she also has tons of love to give. Her foster mom says someone clearly worked with her. She's housebroken, and she knows sit and stay. She also knows "shake," and she has the cutest big brown eyes and that adorable grin that must makes you laugh. Zoey is great with other dogs and loves to play with them. She's also fine with cats. She does fetch, but doesn't necessarily give it back right away. She's great in the car and easy to walk on the leash. She will be perfect for an active family and we think she'll be great with kids too. She's just a fun loving girl who loves to be loved. Zoey is located in Carmel Valley.

SASSY : 6 month old spayed black female 38 lbs


Sassy is a doll of a puppy....very sweet and calm for her age. We rescued her from the Bakersfield shelter, where she was a stray. She learned her new name quickly and sits and comes when called every time. She is very loving and affectionate and loves to meet and greet other people and other dogs. She's also good with cats. She's very good with children and would be a perfect family dog. Sassy is house trained and is very smart. She is a quick learner and the sky's the limit as to what you can teach this girl. She slept on the foster's bed for the first two nights because she had kennel cough and wasn't feeling well, but she's fine on a dog bed next to the bed. She very quickly understood that she was not to jump on the bed unless invited. She loves playing with the foster's big male black lab and the two of them love to wrestle and play tug....they've torn apart many soft toys and have had a GREAT time doing it. Sassy is great in the car and settles right down once the car is moving. She's pretty special for a puppy and seems to have an "old soul." We noticed that her left eye didn't look quite right when she came to us and it might be why she ended up a stray. Our vet thinks that the eye sustained a puncture wound and it doesn't appear that she has vision in that eye. It doesn't bother her at all....and she sees perfectly well with her one good eye. She has absolutely no vision impairment of any kind and acts like a normal puppy. We definitely want her to go to a family where someone is home with her most of the day, as she's still a baby and needs her people around her. Sassy is a very special little girl who bonds quickly and loves to be loved. Sassy is located in Monterey.

DARCY : 2 year old spayed black female 71 lbs


Darcy was a stray in the Bakersfield shelter and we fell in love with this pretty girl. Her coat is gorgeous, thick and shiny with a few waves on her back, and she has a great otter tail and excellent conformation. She is a very loving girl, but she doesn't know much in terms of commands. She clearly hasn't had anyone work with her, but she will be easy to train because she is so attentive. She is house trained, loves to be talked to and given affection and she is a "leaner." Darcy is good with other dogs (though she prefers her people), but is not good with cats or chickens. She really likes to get up on the couch to catch a snooze and also really likes sleeping in her foster's bed (though she is a bit of a bed hog). We're sure she will be fine on a dog bed next to the bed if that's what her new family prefers. She is a very sweet girl, but she needs to be adopted by someone willing to put in the time to train her and make her the best dog she can be. She walks quite well on a leash and she travels fine in the car. She really doesn't show any interest in retrieving or playing with toys....but that makes us all the surer that Darcy never had a chance to have balls or toys, and needs to learn what to do with them. But she DOES know how to pick up and carry her dog dish (now THAT'S a lab for you) and she is an expert at catching popcorn. She is a sweetheart of a girl who will blossom in the right home. We definitely want someone to be around with her most of the day and we want someone committed to working with her.

CAIN : 4 year old neutered black male 68 lbs


Cain was a stray in the Bakersfield shelter and one look at his gorgeous, gentle face was all it took for us to grab him. His foster mom says he's is the most wonderful, loving dog EVER, and we agree. He clearly knows he has been rescued and is so grateful to now be in a loving, safe, warm foster home. He has gained weight in the two weeks that we've had him....he was all skin and bones when he arrived and now he's looking so much better and his coat is getting really nice. He'd been attacked by another dog and had a wound on his back, but that is now healed. This boy clearly had been through a lot, but he has responded to love and care in a phenomenal way. He is a good eater and sits very still until his bowl is placed in front of him....doesn't move until you tell him. He LOVES other dogs and wants to play with all of them. He's in a foster home with three big male dogs who are older and don't really want to play much, but he keeps trying. And he loves to play with toys. Cain especially loves to cuddle on the couch with you while you watch TV and is just a super affectionate boy. He knows sit, is great on the leash and great in the car, though he might try to kiss your ears while you're driving. He is completely housebroken and is OK being left alone in the house when you're gone for short periods....doesn't chew on anything or cause any destruction of any kind. He will get into the trash if you leave it out....but if you have a lab, you know better than to leave anything with food in it out for the taking. He so wants to please. Cain is a patient, kind dog with tons of personality. He would be good with kids....his foster mom has a daughter in middle school and he's great with her. He would also be a great dog to take to work with you. We'll be looking for a very special home for this very special boy. Cain is located in the Monterey area.

KATIE : 8 year old spayed female black Lab 80 lbs
SADIE : 8 year old spayed female yellow Lab 70 lbs


Katie and Sadie's family fell on hard times and had to move to an apartment that did not have suitable space for these two lovely girls, so they contacted GGLRR to help find them the perfect home. They have been together since they were puppies, and are best friends.

KATIE just loves attention, is the quieter of the two and a little shy. She is sweet and calm around other dogs of all sizes and is very connected to her best friend Sadie. She is housebroken, prefers to be in the house with the family, and is used to sleeping in the house at night. She has very nice house manners and can be left alone in the home. She is well behaved in the car. Katie grew up with children, so she is fine with all ages. She does well with cats and loves to swim. She loves to give kisses when prompted. Katie will pull on leash, and needs a refresher course in her commands, but she is a very smart girl and will adapt easily with some training. Because of her living situation, Katie did not get the exercise she needed so she has put on a few extra pounds. With proper diet and exercise she will get her girlish figure back. She does appear to have some arthritic hip changes and may eventually require Rimadyl-type medication. Katie is a very sweet loving Lab that needs a family to love who will love her back.

SADIE is more socially active with people and dogs than her buddy Katie. She is fine with dogs of all sizes, and loves to play fetch with a tennis ball. Sadie is housebroken, and has slept inside at night with the family. She is a little more active in the house, but she does settle down after a few minutes. She too is great with children of all ages. She is not much of a swimmer, though she might wade in a creek, but shows little interest in swimming. She rides well in the car, and is fine with cats. She will also need some leash training and a refresher course in commands. She is a very happy girl that is willing to please so this should not be a problem. During Sadie's vet check it was discovered that she had dental problems and she had to have several teeth removed in the back. She will need to have her kibble softened with water before feeding. She is recovering from some patchy baldness, but with good care and grooming she will have a healthy coat once again. Sadie is a fun-loving girl that likes to be with people, and be loved.

Katie and Sadie have been together since they were 8 weeks old we feel they should remain together. They would be a great pair for a family or retired couple who would love to be their "forever home."

They are both microchipped, have had a heart worm test and are up to date on their shots.

We Need Your Help!

Even with all our volunteers, it costs a lot to save and place 300 Labs a year. There are costs to bail-out these dogs from the shelters along with vet and temporary kennelling costs when no foster homes are available. Please consider a donation of cash, vehicle, or even your time through volunteering.
