TWINKIE: 6 year old spayed purebred female approximately 90 lbs.
Twinkle is a big sweet lovebug with beautiful expressive eyes.
Twinkle was an owner surrender. She was an outdoor ranch dog whose owners had her since she was a puppy but her owners had to move and could not take her with them. They actually brought her to the shelter where they were encouraged to call us, and we are so glad they did. Twinkle was obviously in a lot of pain when I first met her. In fact, it is amazing how sweet she was in spite of her pain. We stepped in to give this beautiful good-natured girl a chance. We took her to the vet and found out that she most likely had untreated ACL injuries and now she has arthritis in her hips and legs. At this point, there is nothing to do medically but manage her pain with medication and give her the care and love that she deserves.
According to the owner, Twinkle is used to being with children of all ages. She is used to being with other dogs. According to her foster, she greets other dogs nicely but is not terribly interested in playing.
This is what the foster has to say:
"Twinkle is gentle, kind and loving. She is a big sweet dog, who loves to give kisses and ride in cars, but mostly she wants to be with you. Twinkle would be a terrific dog for a family with small kids. She is easy and mellow. When Twinkle first came to us, she showed some separation anxiety (mostly barking, no chewing or destructive behavior). Since then, she has settled down more and more each day. She still is a bit timid in her new environment, and at times enjoys finding a safe and quiet corner...maybe under the table, maybe behind the sofa...to curl up and chill out. Twinkle walks nicely on the leash, senses when her leader stops or slows and comes to a halt and turns to look back at you for direction. She is a great dog."
If you are looking for a great companion pup, Twinkle is for you. She will not be able to hike or run with you, or fetch the ball or jump , but she loves a short brisk walk a couple of times a day to her comfort level; it helps keep her limber. The rest of the time she will be perfectly happy just to hang with you. She is so calm you would never know she used to be an outside dog.
Twinkle has had a tough time. Lab rescue would like to see her go to someone who can love her as much as she loves, and can be with her during the day. She would be happy to go to work with you. Although we think she would be fine with other dogs, she probably cannot play or wrestle, so it may be better for her to be the only pup. According to the owner, Twinkle would play with the rabbit on the ranch, which makes us think she would be fine with cats. Other than her arthritis, Twinkle is otherwise healthy although she could loose a few pounds. We did blood work that came back fine. She is up to date on her shots and is heartworm negative. She is also housebroken. Twinkle is located in Berkeley.
If you think you are the very special someone for this big-hearted and deserving gentle girl, please contact rep Ronnie at 408-738-0841.

HOWIE: 2 year old neutered Yellow Lab 100+ lbs.
Howie is a gorgeous 2 ½ year old yellow Lab whose heart is as big as his body. But the first thing everyone notices are his beautiful eyes, rimmed in dark chocolate, attentively trained on you as if he is understanding every word you say. Then when he stands up, you realize what a beautiful boy this Lab is. It isn’t just his looks that are captivating; Howie is originally from Florida, and demonstrates the gentlemanly manners and abundance of charm that mark him as a son of the South.
Howie was surrendered to Lab Rescue with great sadness by his owner, who had moved to the Bay Area to look for work, using scarce funds to pay for Howie’s flight here to start a new life together. He was still unemployed, living with relatives, when Howie injured one of his rear legs. Unable to afford vet costs, the owner kept him off of the leg as much as possible, carrying him down a very long flight of stairs several times a day, in the hopes that Howie would get better. When his leg didn’t heal after a few months and instead was getting worse, the owner contacted Lab Rescue to see if we could help. Our vet examined Howie, and delivered the news – he had a badly torn ACL and required very expensive TPLO surgery and a long period of rehabilitation. Lab Rescue agreed to take Howie, pay his medical costs, and find him a new home.
Surrendered by his tearful owner at the veterinary hospital, Howie had surgery on March 19. The owner sent a last message to Lab Rescue: "Thank you for what you are doing. Please take care of him. I wish him only the best things in life." Howie is now recovering in a loving foster home, where he has captured the hearts of everyone in the family, including their three other yellow Labs. Although he is confined to his pen when not out on his daily walks, Howie enjoys the company of his foster brother and sisters, watching them play or catching some rays with them out on the lawn.
Howie is friendly with all people, gentle with children, and loves to swim, run, and retrieve tennis balls. He takes great delight in chasing squirrels, so he probably would chase cats too. Howie knows some commands, has good recall, and is excellent on the leash.
We are looking for a home preferably that has experience with TPLO surgery recovery, and/or will fully commit to bringing Howie through this period. A home without children, or with children over 10 who can understand and comply with the restrictions on activity for Howie, would be best.
If you think you might offer the right home for this very special gorgeous young boy, please call or text GGLRR Rep, Kathleen, at (415) 706-5868.

Charlie: 11 month old AKC neutered yellow lab 65 lbs
Charlie was purchased as a puppy from a breeder by his family who raised him along with their older Labrador and 8 year-old son. They made sure that Charlie was well-socialized and had his early training, but soon realized that Charlie would require more exercise and attention than they had anticipated.
Charlie is a very gentle young lab; he greets you very nicely walking right up to you just to say “Hi.” He will sit right in front of you waiting for a treat or a simple touch. He is not a pushy Lab. With a gentle sniff he knew I had treats in my pocket, but he waited patiently for me to offer him one. Charlie loves to be with people. I sat down on the floor with him and he laid his head on my lap to soak up whatever attention I had to offer.
Charlie knows his commands: sit, down, and stay, but of course as a young guy, he will need continual and consistent training to make him a “good canine citizen.” He walks right alongside of you, watching and waiting for you to give him guidance. When I had him off leash in a protected area he had good recall, responding every time I called him. He will sit right in front of you waiting for his reward.
Charlie’s foster has said that he does wake up “frisky” in the morning, but with good exercise and mental stimulation (practicing his commands) he calms right down for his day of fun with the other dogs. Charlie will chew on non dog items, so he will need supervision and plenty of chew toys. He is crate- trained, which will help when there is a period of time he will be unsupervised. He is housetrained. I did see him have an encounter with a cat, there was a sniff, and then he moved on, so a home with a cat may be a possibility. He rides well in the car; he lies right down to enjoy the ride, popping up every once in a while to see the sights.
Charlie has a good foundation with his training. He will need well-defined boundaries and clearly communicated expectations. We will be looking for a family that is home most of the day, and will be committed to continue his training and give him the exercise he needs to be a great companion.
He is up to date on his shots, micro chipped and heart worm negative. Charlie is located in Orinda.
If you have the time and commitment for this wonderful boy, please call Rescue Rep Judy T @ 707-480-8469.

Bella: 3-4 year old spayed black female Lab 70 Pounds
Bella's previous owner had passed away and they were both living under a bridge in Lake county. The first responders felt that Bella was a very nice dog and did not want to take her to the pound so they asked friends to take her until a home could be found. The family who took Bella in had several Jack Russell Terriers and found it too much to have one more dog so they called Golden Gate Lab Rescue to help Bella find a new home. They described Bella as a good natured dog with great manners! We took Bella into our program and found a wonderful home for Bella but the owner spends a lot of time at off leash areas and wants a dog to be able to run off leash on a regular basis.
Bio from the current owner:
Bella is a 3-4 year old female black lab. Bella appears to have started her life on the street. She was rescued 9 months ago and adjusted quickly to a warm bed, two meals a day, lots of treats, and a steady routine of walks. Bella is very secure in her home place where she can go in and out at will. She sunbathes or just enjoys watching the world go by. She is very happy when her human is home and loves to go for walks and rides in the car. Any time is her motto. Bella responded well to training and wants to please. She learned the commands: sit, down, stand, heel, stay and come. Bella likes to chase balls, but is not ball obsessed. She also enjoys swimming when she gets the opportunity. Bella gets along well with the family cat and is quiet in the house. She loves to be petted and groomed and enjoys being a lap dog when given the chance. Bella rarely barks, but loud noises such as firecrackers and lightning make her nervous. Bella would love to be an only dog with a family who would include her in their lives, give her lots of love, plenty of exercise on leash, and reinforce all her good training. Bella has been in two off leash situations where she has nipped another dogs ear while they were all digging for a ball. She gets along with all dogs but off leash we feel she feels less secure. We feel Bella should be adopted to a home with older children. Bella is very healthy, updated on her shots, microchipped and heartworm negative. Bella is a wonderful dog and will make a wonderful companion.
If you are interested in adopting this sweet girl, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep, Liz 415-613-6374.

Leo: 7 year old, neutered, Yellow Lab, AKC 85 Pounds
Leo was surrendered by his owner as she is re-locating, and cannot provide for her dog. She bought him from a breeder in Alameda Co. when he was a puppy. He is a happy, lovable Lab who gets along with everyone. He greets people, (even strangers), with a grin on his face, and a bounce in his step. He particularly loves children. He has lived with, and gets along perfectly well with other dogs. He has not lived with a cat, but has been in close proximity, and displays no interest. Leo responds to several commands, sit, stay, down, come and heel. He has always been an outside dog. He will need to be domesticated. He is very anxious to please, and we feel will respond well to additional training. Leo is a large and very strong Lab. He sometimes doesn't realize his own strength and size. The owner feels that he could inadvertently topple over young children. We feel he would be best suited to a home with kids over 8 maybe 10 years old. We have taken Leo on several walks, and once he's had the opportunity to settle down a bit, he walks well on a leash. (His owner has used a correction collar.) He responds to 'heel'. Leo does play fetch but briefly; it is not his favorite activity. He much prefers to go hiking and loves being in the water! He also likes car rides. Leo is a very active boy. The owner asked us to emphasize the word "active". He also has a very gentle spirit. We would like Leo to go to a home where he'll be provided both the training and patience to make the transition from an outside to an inside dog. As of this month, (May), Leo's shots have all been updated, he was chipped, tested for heartworm (neg), had a full mouth dental cleaning and was neutered. Leo will remain on a health plan through Benfield Vet Hospitals through spring, 2014.
Update from the foster mom:
Since being placed in Foster care several days ago, Leo is doing very well. His foster says he is quite easily adjusting in his transition to become an inside dog. He's quickly learned to use the dog door, and has not had one accident in the house. He is beginning to learn some inside manners. He's been sleeping on a dog bed next to the foster with no problems. He has already expressed his preference to be an inside, rather than outside dog. He will go in a crate when asked, but is not something he learned to do with his former owner. The foster says his temperament remains great in every new situation. He'll chose being with people and /or other dogs, every time, over chasing a ball. Still has plenty of energy left after a 6 mile hike.
If you are considering adding a very friendly, easy going, very active, and somewhat slobbering Lab to your family, Leo might be your boy. Leo is located in Mountain View.
If you are interested in adopting this happy boy, please call or text GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep, Arlene at 925-285-6942.

Mona: 2 year old spayed black female 70 lbs
Mona is a sweet, loving girl who is looking for a great home. She was owner surrendered with her brother last December and he quickly found a new home. But Mona was obese, weighing in at over 90 lbs and we also found that she has hip dysplasia. We decided to see if taking the weight off her would ease her situation and it has. Her amazing fosters have worked with her for five months and she's doing so well. Mona is not food motivated, so has handled the diet very well and has lost over 20 pounds. She'd much rather be petted and hugged than eat dinner. She's a doll of a dog. At her new weight she is energetic and playful and goes on 45 minute walks twice a day without a problem. She does pull on a leash, but does much better on an easy walk harness. She knows sit, comes when called, is house trained and has good house manners. Mona is good with other dogs, but likes male dogs best. She plays nicely with the foster's male black lab…in fact, they are best of friends. If she gets tired from playing, she'll let the other dog know. Mona would be great with kids, but we want to make sure they don't jump on her, so older kids would be best. She will let you take food out of her mouth and you can take her toys too….she's very easy going. She would rather live in a one story house so she doesn't have to do lots of stairs and she likes lying on padded surfaces….the couch being her favorite place….but a dog bed would be just fine too. Mona would probably not do well with cats, because she really wants to chase squirrels. She's a love of a girl…and she's beautiful, with a gorgeous head, expressive eyes and a lovely coat. She would be a great dog to take to work with you….or just have hang out with you at home. We'd like someone to be with her most of the day. Mona is located in Santa Cruz.
If you're looking for a gentle, sweet girl, please text (preferred) or call Rescue Rep Sylvana @ (831) 596-1700.

Mocha: 4 year old spayed chocolate female 70 lbs
Mocha is a darling chocolate girl with a lovely coat, athletic body, and big expressive eyes. She's good with other dogs and loves playing with them. She knows sit, comes when called and is very, very smart. Mocha is an extremely loving girl and soaks up the affection. She adores her people and will stick close to you even if she's off leash. She's very good on leash and is great meeting other dogs on her walks. She likes to play ball, but when she brings it bak to you and you ask her to drop it, she shakes her head from side to side, as if to say, it's all hers….and then she gives it to you….it's really cute. She's a real character and will quickly win your heart. She likes sleeping in a crate at night, but would also be happy on a dog bed next to your bed. She's great with kids, completely house trained, and is a very well mannered girl. And Mocha ADORES being in a swimming pool….so we'd sure love a home for her where she could have one! We'd also like a home for Mocha where someone is around much of the day. She's a very special girl and whoever adopts her will be lucky indeed. Mocha is located in Monterey.
For more information on Mocha, please text (preferred) or call Rescue Rep Sylvana @ (831) 596-1700

Roxie: 1 1/2 year old spayed black female 61 pounds
Roxie was surrendered to lab rescue from a wonderful family who just didn't have the time to spend
with her. Roxie is a beautiful, athletic, field lab with a gorgeous head, soft coat, and big hazel eyes. She is very energetic and playful as you would expect from a youngster. She has lived with kids and is great with them (but she gets a little mouthy at times in play, so probably best not to have her with very little kids)….and she's fine with other dogs as well. She enjoys playing with her foster's big male lab. Roxie loves to play ball and eventually will bring it back to you…but not until she's had a chance to run around and play with it. She knows sit, lie down, and will "stay" for short periods, but she needs a family that will take her to obedience class for a refresher course…something every adopter of a rescue lab should do. Roxie is house trained and good in the house….but she WILL counter surf if you leave food out on the counters. She's a lovely girl, but a bit of a "rascally teenager" as her foster mom says. This girl craves attention and affection and wants to be with you all the time. We'd like a home for her where someone is around most of the day. Oh, and Roxie ADORES water….can't get enough of it. She's a fabulous swimmer and will throw herself into a swimming pool. She loves the hose, would adore going to the beach, and will even try to "swim" in her water dish. We would love it if her adopting family had a pool or went to the beach a lot. Roxie has lots of energy and will need good exercise…she'd be a perfect jogging buddy for someone. She's a real athlete and has that beautiful sleek, lovely field lab body. Roxie is fine on a leash, but stops a lot to sniff. She would be a fun dog to take to one of the "nose classes" where dogs learn to find things that are hidden by "smelling them out." She's a fun dog….needs a few manners, but she's smart and will learn quickly. Roxie is located in the Monterey area.
If you think this beautiful girl would be perfect for your family, please text (preferred) or call Rescue Rep Sylvana @ (831) 596-1700.

Missy: (approximately) 7 years old, black spayed female Lab 75 lbs.
A wonderful family of dog lovers found Missy wandering their neighborhood. They found out that she had belonged to an elderly neighbor who had passed away and apparently, the lady's family had left Missy alone in the backyard for some time and she escaped. More than likely, Missy was looking for her person. The Good Samaritans took Missy in and seeing what a sweet girl she is, called Lab Rescue to find her a new home. We got Missy in to our vet, where we got her spayed, vaccinations updated, tested for heartworm (negative), microchipped and some dental work. Missy also had several fatty tumors, which the vet tested and unfortunately, one of them was a mast cell tumor. The vet removed the tumor and got clean margins when removing it. (We have adopted out dogs that had this kind of tumor successfully removed, and have remained cancer-free.) Otherwise, Missy is healthy and was obviously raised by her former owner with love and respect. She is very people-oriented and loves nothing more than their company, so we want Missy to go to a family where she will have the human companionship to which she is accustomed. She would be fine with other dogs in the home, but would also love to be queen of her castle, as long as her people are there and will continue working with her on socialization with unfamiliar dogs, which was not a big part of her upbringing. She is a gentle and submissive girl, so "schooling" her will present very little challenge and she would do fine with dog-savvy children 6 or older.
Here is what Missy's Foster has to say about her:
Missy is a peach of a dog she's playful but quiet, and smart smart smart. Her
best qualities include: walking nicely on leash, being very housebroken, quick
and responsive to new lessons, and well-mannered in the house but with the
energy for lots more fun once outside. She's not so energetic that she requires
10 miles a day just to be calm at home, but 2-3 good walks should do. I do
think because of her relative youth and naturally athletic build though, she
could be a good hiking companion with a little ramp-up.
As for her quickness in class, I've asked her not to go upstairs simply with a
no and hand gestures and she has respected this rule 100% from day one.
She also comes when called, eats gently by hand, and gets on nicely with our
other male Lab. However, on occasion she has shown a little protective
growliness around other strange dogs she hasn't seen before, but is generally
very affable with everyone! She is a people's dog though. There's nothing she
wants more than to be close to her person(s).
She is a doll of a Lab and should go to a home where she will have regular
exercise, lots of companionship, leadership and love.
Missy is all set to join her new family and is located in Novato.
If you are interested in learning more about this wonderful girl, please call or text GGLRR Rep Kathleen at (415) 706-5868.

Teya: 8 yrs old 70 lb chocolate female spayed
Teya was purchased as a puppy from a breeder and has lived with her family all her life. Sadly, finding that they would have to re-locate, and unable to take Teya to their new home, they asked Lab Rescue to find a family who would love and care for her as they have all her life. Teya is youthful for her age. She loves to play with her ball, and swimming is another big favorite activity. Teya is fit and trim, and would be a wonderful hiking companion. Once she has had her exercise, Teya is an easy presence in the home, calmly entertaining herself with a chew toy. Teya walks well on the leash and loves to go along with her people for car rides. Her foster mom reports that Teya is gentle and patient with the family's toddler and that she is very responsive, eager to please and receive positive attention. This will make it easy for her new family to acclimate her to the home by clearly communicating the "rules of the house", as she is a quick and willing learner. Teya does well with other dogs she meets when out and about and plays nicely with her Fosters' dog, but she is primarily a "people dog", so we would like her to go to a family where someone will be around most of the time to give her the guidance and companionship she needs and enjoys. Her foster also feels she would be fine with a dog-savvy cat.
Here is what her Foster has to say:
"Teya is adjusting well and we feel comfortable gradually giving her a little more freedom in the house each day. Over the weekend, we had a lot of people over, both adults and children, and she was totally calm and happy with people everywhere. We have taken her shopping to Santana Row and she did great. Teya and our dog, Rose, like to wrestle playfully and are great on walks together. Teya is a nice, easy addition to our household."
If you are interested in meeting this lovely, good-natured girl, contact rep Ronnie at 408-738-0841.

JACK: 6 Year Old Male Chocolate Lab Neutered AKC 80 Pounds
Jack was an owner surrender to Lab Rescue. The owners decided to give Jack up for adoption as they now have two small children and Jack tends to knock them down. It was a very hard decision to give him up but the family with a new baby decided they could not monitor Jack and the kids. Jack is a great dog and loves to play outside. If you have a tennis ball he will be your best friend. He loves to swim and fetch balls in the water. The owner has spent a lot of time training him and he knows: sit, stay, bed, bedroom, wait(when entering a doorway), high five, shake and lay down. He walks very well on a leash, knows heel and will walk beside you for hours. He loves to go for car rides, loves to swim, he is great off leash and will hang in the front yard watching the activity. Jack plays with other dogs on a regular basis and has not had any issues. He was bitten by another dog when we were out on a walk but it has not affected his behavior with other dogs. He has no possessive issues with his food or any toys and will take treats gently from your hand. He is not a dog that tries to protect anyone or the house he is just a happy boy! He sleeps in a crate at night as he seems to still like this. Jack was purchased from a breeder in the Sacramento area as a puppy by the current owner.
Update from the foster:
We have Jack in a foster home where he is doing great. He sleeps on his bed through the night and has not had any issues in our home. (No marking or accidents.) The foster has a male lab and they are getting along fabulously. Jack is a very good boy and very well behaved. He sits, stays, comes when asked and goes to his bed on his own. He likes to ride in the car and does not try to get in the front seat! The foster has cats and Jack is fine with them until they run, then he will chase after them. The foster mom is working with him on this. Jack is very healthy, has not had any health issues, up to date on his shots, neutered, microchiped and heartworm negative. We would recommend a home with older kids. Jack is located in Livermore.
If you are interested in adopting this wonderful boy, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep, Liz 415-613-6374.

INDO: 7 year old black non-spayed female Lab 60-65 lbs
(Lab Rescue will coordinate the spay once adopted or once we get into a foster home.)
Indo is a happy-spirited, wiggly affectionate girl who greets everyone with a mischievous smile. Although she is 7, her energy belies her age. Indo’s owner has had her since she was a puppy, and unfortunately his circumstances have changed. He very much wants to find her a better home, and reached out to Lab Rescue. She has been raised with children, including a toddler grandson, loves them and is gentle with them, but does enjoy licking their faces to clean up any food residue. For this reason, a home with children 5 and up might be the best for her.
Indo’s best friend at her house is a very large male pit bull. At the dog park, she greeted all dogs, large and small, male and female, appropriately with a wagging tail. She also has lived with as many as six cats, and is fine with them. Indo hasn’t been out in the world much lately, but is enthusiastic and curious about exploring new places, and always excited to go for a ride. Her owner reports that she has not been swimming, but loves water and if allowed, will gladly hop in the shower with him. She stays in the yard outside by herself without a problem during the day, and sleeps in a crate at night in the house.
Although Indo has had no formal training, she does have a few commands in her repertoire – sit, come, and jump up. She does tend to obey at her own discretion, and will try to distract you by rolling over for a belly rub instead of complying – it should be easy to teach her that command! Leash walking is not one of her better skills, but she wants to please, so with some structured consistent training and a Gentle Leader or Halti, she will learn quickly. Did we mention she is mischievous? And smart? When we put a Martingale collar on her to take her out for a walk, she wasn’t pleased. So she went down, rolled over, hooked her paw through it, and promptly pulled it off. Then she looked up at us with a broad grin, as if to say, “How was that for a trick?”
Update from the foster home:
Indo is doing well. She came in a bit nervous, shy dog but now she's unraveling her true self. She seems very happy and is very confident of her surroundings. She sleeps well in her crate and does not react to our cats. She is learning to take treats gently from your hand and she just loves to hang out with us. We took her on long hike over the weekend and she did great riding in the care with our dog. We took her to Garin park and she loved the hike. She greeted other dogs well, she let kids pet her, she loved walking in the stream and seems to be soaking up all the attention. She is very tolerant of our dog and just loves being with her human.
Indo has no health issues, updated on her shots, microchipped, heart worm negative. She is located in Castro Valley.
If you have a sense of humor and are looking for a spunky, slightly overweight, more mature lab who will make you laugh with her personality, Indo is your girl. To find out more, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep, Liz 415-613-6374.

JOEY: black neutered 12 year-old male Lab mix 65 lbs
Joey was adopted from GGLRR three years ago by a wonderful San Francisco couple who gave him a loving home. They loved taking him for walks around the City and in the hills of their neighborhood. His gentle presence was a perfect fit for their mature lifestyle. Recently, the husband, who has Parkinson's disease, took a fall and suffered a broken collar bone. Joey's mom still works, so her husband and Joey would be at home alone, which was an impossible situation, give her husband's compromised mobility. Very sadly and with great reluctance, his family decided that Joey would need to be returned to Lab Rescue for re-homing. Joey is a happy soul, friendly to all, who enjoys the companionship of his people. His guardians describe a dog that has no bad habits, is fully house-trained, loves cats and enjoys a couple of brief walks per day. Joey sleeps through the night on his bed. As an older gentleman, he has arthritis, but with NSAID medication along with a glucosamine-chondroitin supplement, remains quite cheerful and active for his age. Joey has had excellent care for the past three years, including regular vet visits, is microchipped and up to date on all vaccinations. Joey would be a good companion for a retired couple or single, or even a "starter" dog for a growing family as long as the children are gentle and respectful of his elder status. And, as we said, Joey loves people...and cats!
Here is what Joey's Foster has to say: Joey is a calm, loving boy. He loves everyone and gets along with both our dogs. He loves being close to his people and would be ideal for a person or family that is around most of the day, although he seems to have no problem being alone for hours at a time. He has arthritis in his hips and takes medication for it. However, we have taken him for walks lasting nearly an hour up and down hills. He’s always happy and ready to go on outings. Other than being a bit slow and needing an occasional rest stop, he’s done very well. Now and then, he’ll even get wild and crazy, jump around and play with a ball!
If you are interested in meeting this sweet and affectionate gentleman, please call or text GGLRR Rep., Kathleen, at (415) 706-5868.

Baron: 7 year old neutered yellow male 90 lbs.
Baron is a much loved boy whose owner needs to give him up due to the owner's health issues. It is with a very heavy heart that they have to part with Baron. GGLRR adopted Baron to them 6 years ago and he's a wonderful dog. He is big, but very gentle and extremely loving. He's also a gorgeous boy with huge brown eyes, a big block head and a great smile. He loves to be petted and truly thinks he's a lap dog. He's also a cuddler and gives lots of great doggie kisses. Baron knows all the basic commands and many more….heel, sit, stay, lay down (or just "down"), back up (if he is by the door and you want him to move back), no barking, drop it, release, and "give it to me (when you want him to pick up a toy and hand it to you so you don't have to bend down to pick it up). He is completely house trained and has great house manners. Baron adores riding in the car and is up for going anywhere you go. He was diagnosed with Masticatory Muscle Myositis (a deterioration of the chewing muscles) years ago, but is doing really well and only needs one pill every four days for this condition (available for $20 at Rite Aid)….he has no issues with heating or chewing now as long as he takes his meds. He loves his rubber bones….both fun for him and great for building his jaw strength. He also loves to play with his stuffed ball, but prefers to play with it indoors (doesn't want to get it dirty :-)). Baron also loves having his teeth brushed….and get this…..he really likes it done with an electric Oral B toothbrush. How cute is that??? He also loves getting bathed and brushed. He's a good eater. Baron is great with other dogs….has lived with another dog or dogs his whole life (though we think he would be OK as an only dog), and he's absolutely great with kids. If you want a big, gentle love of a boy, Baron is the one. We definitely want him to go to a home where someone is around with him a good part of the day….and he's definitely a dog that could go to work with you. Baron is located in the Monterey area.
For more information on this very special boy, please text or call Rescue Rep Sylvana @ (831) 596-1700.

Cody: 7 year old, neutered yellow male 95 lbs
Cody is a big boy but very sweet and loving. Lab Rescue met Cody when his family called us as they were moving out of state to a rental home and couldn't take him. They describe him as a very loving, calm dog who loves his toys, loves his walks and wants to be with people. Cody started as an inside dog but since he was a big boy they made him and outside dog. He has a run or he is on a 40' tether in the backyard. He sleeps on a dog bed in the garage at night and does not have any accidents. Cody does enjoy daily neighborhood walks and walks very well on his leash, which is a good thing due to his size. The owner has a cat which Cody sees through the door and he shows no excitement towards but he does like to chase squirrels. Cody loves to play ball and loves to retrieve sticks. The family has not had him swimming but we would think he would LOVE to swim. (We would say we are not sure about a home with cats at this time.) Cody is fine with kids and plays well with the 8 year old in the family but is not recommended for very small children due to his size. He loves to play fetch and is friendly with other dogs met on his walks. Lab Rescue would like a home for Cody where he will get the love, attention and exercise he deserves, preferably where he is not alone all day. Cody is neutered, updated on his shots, microchipped and tested negative for heartworm. Cody is located in Oakland.
Update from his foster:
"Cody has figured out the potty process and is housebroken. As long as he goes out right away in the morning there have been no issues whatsoever. He has been great about meeting new people, no jumping, he just sits and enjoys the attention! He is learning to be gentler about taking treats. He is fantastic with other dogs, no matter what they are doing. He rides super well in the car. He is handling crate training pretty well and he sleeps through the night. He loves a kong with peanut butter! He needs some work with recall but knows sit, lie down and stay. He is working on watch me (where he makes eye contact), leave it, and easy (for taking treats). He is super smart and eager to please-- a big lovebug!"
If you are interested in this lovable boy, please contact Rescue Rep Allison at 415-806-2490.

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.

Joshua: 1 year old neutered male yellow lab mix 37 lbs
Little Josh is an adorable lab mix who looks like a cross of a red lab and something smaller. He was a stray in Bakersfield and we rescued him from the shelter there. He has amazing eyes and a blocky head and he's very, very smart. He's in wonderful shape and has a beautiful coat. Josh is a cheerful boy who loves to go on walks and is great on a leash. He knows sit and is completely house trained. He's good with other dogs, but can be dominant in play with some dogs. He seems to be OK with cats, as he was only mildly curious about them in his foster's home. He's not a barker. Josh is affectionate and loves to be loved....but Josh also wants to be "in charge" in the household and needs an experienced dog family to adopt him. Josh needs to have boundaries set for him.....he needs to know that he doesn't make all the decisions in the family, that, instead, he needs to follow his person's lead. He's good with kids, but we would like any kids in the family to be teens or older, as he needs to have everyone working together on his training. He doesn't require a ton of exercise....a couple of nice long walks a day will be fine. He's still young and will chew things, so he needs to be provided with appropriate chew toys. We definitely want him to go to a home where someone is around much of the time. Josh is located in Carmel.

Stella: 8 week old female lab mix 7 pounds
(GGLRR will pay for her spay, her last shots and her microchip.)
We don't know much about Stella's background other than she was rescued from a Fresno area shelter just before her time was up. Her fur is cream colored, very much like a yellow lab. She's very friendly and has played well with the labs she's been with despite the big size difference. She's curious, cheery and energetic. And when she's tired, she loves to snuggle with people or another dog. We're using a crate with her and while she doesn't like being alone and will cry at first, she will settle in for the night. Sometimes she will go in the crate during the day to take naps. She's getting the hang of potty training. We want he to go to a home where someone is around during the day. She's had her second round of shots and is very healthy. She is located in Pleasanton.
To find out more, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep, Liz 415-613-6374.

Drake: 3 Year Old Male Chocolate Lab Neutered 80 Pounds
Drake was an owner surrender to the Tracy shelter as the owners did not want to deal with his allergy issues. The kept him in the backyard full time and his skin just got worse. The shelter contacted Lab Rescue as they knew he deserved a nice home as Drake was a wonderful Lab. We evaluated him and took him into our program and he is thriving with being an inside dog and some vet care. Drake has been at our boarding facility and he is Mr. Easy. He gets along with everyone and is just a lover and not a fighter. The boarding facility had puppies and they would run all around Drake and he would just walk away. He is clean in his kennel and very well trained. He has been in the office and he just loves hanging out with people- he is an easy dog. He would make a great office dog as he just sits there and plays with his squeaky toys and lays on his bed. He loves to go for car rides and is Mr Mellow in the backseat. He does love to play with toys and is very easy to walk on a leash. We have had him into the Vet and he has been neutered, his teeth cleaned, his ears cleaned, a lump removed under his neck and we have worked on his skin issues. As you can see there are much better! He has all his shots, heartworm negative and microchipped. We would love Drake to go to a home that will give him the love and attention he deserves as he has a lot to give!
If you are interested in adopting this wonderful boy, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep, Liz 415-613-6374.

Molly: 6 Year Old Black Female Spayed AKC 75 Pounds
Maddie: 6 Year Old Black Female Spayed AKC 70 Pounds
Molly and Maddie are sisters and were born February, 2007. They are AKC registered and were purchased from a breeder in the Central Valley. The owners spent around $4,000 to have them trained when they were around a year old at Camp Brainy Dog in Corning. They have not kept up on the training but they do know the following: Sit, down, stay, come and do nice - when eating from your hand. They do not jump up to greet you and they are very gentle around children. The family had two kids ages 9 & 16. When they are together the girls just want to run and play - they have wonderful temperaments. They love to swim, play ball and go for car rides and will walk on the leash without pulling. (Since Lab Rescue has had them we have been working on this to remind them of their training.) They have been outside dogs but currently at the boarding facility they are clean in their kennel so transferring them inside would be easy. (You would just not give them free reign to the house for a few weeks.) The two girls do not have any anxiety and when left alone they do not dig or chew on nondog items. They have been with other dogs and they do fine but would prefer to be with each other. They just love the human attention and have not had this for awhile. The owners are losing their home and can’t take the girls with them to their new place. The are very healthy dogs and are spayed, have all their shots, microchipped, heartworm negative and have had full blood panels done. They are located in Petaluma.
If you are interested in adopting these beautiful girls, please call GGLRR Lab Rescue Rep, Liz 415-613-6374.

RASCAL: 6 year-old neutered black Lab 75 lbs.
Rascal's family adopted him from a Northern California rescue group when he was four months old and has loved and cared for him ever since. Unfortunately, the family had to move and his mom's work schedule changed, which meant that Rascal would be spending long hours at home alone. Loving Rascal as they do, they made the painful but selfless decision to ask Lab Rescue to find Rascal a new home and family to love him. Rascal is a gentle, happy boy, who is very accommodating. He plays well with other dogs, ignoring the bullies; he was raised with kids and ignored cats in his former home. Rascal loves days at the beach, swimming, long walks or hiking with his people, then happily settles down to relax with them. Rascal is a very social boy, and while he is trustworthy when left at home, he is used to being a part of the family and with them most of the time, which is what we want for him in his next home. He would be a great dog to take to work as his former mom has done. Like all dogs, Rascal will benefit from clear ground rules and positive reinforcement of good habits. He'd be an ideal family dog, but children should be as gentle and respectful as he is. In his foster home, he has been playing the role of "big brother" to his Fosters' somewhat timid young dog. Rascal has gently encouraged his foster brother to venture forth with more confidence and been a great mentor. Rascal is up to date on his vaccinations, microchipped, heartworm negative and in great health.
Here is what his Foster has to say about him:
"Rascal is a wonderful dog! He is very friendly and outgoing, but is just as happy lounging around the house as he is romping at the dog park. Speaking of the dog park, he does quite well with other dogs as well as the people he meets; he is energetic but gentle. He is very food motivated, so this makes him easy to train! He does tend to nose around a lot when there is people food around, and I'm not sure that he could resist it if it was within reach.
He is great with basic commands: "sit," "sit pretty," "down," "stay," "come," and we've already taught him "shake," "up," and "off." We are working on "leave it" and "drop it."

SOPHIE: 6 1/2 year old spayed female black Lab, 70 lbs.
Sophie came to us from a family who didn’t have the time or the energy to spend with her. When you meet this sweet girl, you’d never guess that she’s 6 1/2! She has the energy of a much younger dog, with a soft silky black coat, a little bit of white on her chin, and soulful brown eyes. Although she’s energetic, she’s not hyper; she’s just not getting the exercise that a lab her age needs. She’s a little bit on the plump side; regular exercise would help burn off any excess energy, AND slim her down a bit.
Sophie is fine with other dogs; she’s much more interested in humans. She’s doing well with the fosters dogs, but is quite content to be lying on her bed chewing her tennis ball rather than playing with the other dogs. Sophie LOVES her ball, and will chase it for as long as you can throw it. She ignores cats, and did fine with the chickens and rabbits that shared the yard with her in her last home. When you first meet Sophie, she’s so very happy to see you that she prances a bit, and gives lots of kisses. We don’t know how much training she has (her last owner didn’t give her any) but she knows sit and down, and will respond immediately when there is a treat at stake. She seems to walk well on a short leash. She does like attention, but she can also lie quietly on her bed.
According to her foster mom, Sophie is really sweet and well behaved. She is a busy bee at times, smelling everything and going around everywhere, but then she lays down right next to her. She sleeps in crate at night with no fuss. While she wasn’t initially crate trained, she will now go into her crate with a treat, and once in, she doesn’t complain. Sophie doesn’t bark…ever. At the dog park, she greets other dogs, but isn’t really interested in them.
The ideal home for Sophie is with someone who will enjoy taking her for long walks or runs (a tired dog is a good dog!). We don't know how she is with small children but because of her size, she should probably be with children over 8. She’s also fine with cats, rabbits and chickens! Because Sophie has had 4 homes in her 6 years, we want to be sure that she goes to a home who will give her the training, consistency and leadership that she needs. She’s a smart girl and we think she will respond well to training. A home that can handle (and wants to have) an energetic lab is a must!
Sophie is spayed, microchipped (although the chip will need to be transferred) up to date on her shots, heartworm negative, and on flea prevention. She is housebroken and is in great health. Sophie is located in San Jose. If you are interested in adopting lovely, lively girl, and are looking for a great dog to take on walks, train and spend time with, then Sophie is the girl for you!

Neko: 2 year old neutered black male mix 35 lbs
Neko is truly the sweetest dog you'll ever meet…..and we think he's the cutest too!. He was an owner surrender to the Bakersfield shelter, and we have no idea why….it must have been very hard to give up this boy. Neko is adorable with his shiny black coat, white "necktie" and big brown eyes. He walks well on the leash, knows sit, gets along with the foster's dog and every other dog he meets and is the kind of dog everyone will stop you so they can pet him. Neko is very affectionate and loves to be petted and have his tummy rubbed. He's house trained and lays around the house with you, interested in what you're doing. His fosters have let him off leash as well and he comes when called and stays close to you. He will chase a ball, but doesn't always bring it back….and he's beginning to show interest in squeaky toys (probably never had any before). He gets into and out of the car with no issues and loves to go for rides. And he sleeps through the night in the foster's bedroom. Currently he's sleeping in a crate, which he goes in without hesitation, but we think he'd love to sleep on a dog bed….or better yet, YOUR bed. This is a loving, cuddly little guy….and we're sure he would be good with kids too. He's unknown with cats. His small size makes him perfect for most any situation. We definitely want someone around with him most of the day…but he would be an easy dog to take to work with you if your work allows that. His fosters say he's incredibly easy to have around and he immediately wins your heart. .

CAFECITO: 4 Year Old Male Chocolate Lab Neutered 85 Pounds
Café is a handsome chocolate boy who was surrendered and was surrendered with an older chocolate female. The family has had Cafecito since he was a puppy, but they lost their home and had to move into an apartment and they had a no pet policy. They tried to work with the apartment owner but had to reach out to Lab Rescue to help them find their dogs a new place. We evaluated the dogs and took both of them into our program. We have had Café professional evaluated as he can be a bit timid / scared at times and the trainer said he is a great dog but needs to get into a foster home and we need to see him in a variety of situations. We decided it best to separate the two dogs as Café was using the girl for a security blanket. (When we met the son Café was very scared of him. We think the son had a heavy hand with the training of the dogs and with Café's sensitive temperament it made him scared of certain situations.) We currently have him in a foster home with another male Lab and he is doing well.
This is what the foster mom has to say about him:
Café is an easy going boy who loves to be with his people. Café has a healthy chocolate coat, great teeth, enjoys greeting them brushed and doesn't mind his paws being wiped. He is great about letting the foster put medication in his ears. (He had an ear infection so we got them treated.) Going for a walk is one of his favorite activities and he walks well on leash with enthusiasm. Café loves to go for a ride in the car and will sit in the back calmly while going for the ride. He knows most basic commands: sit, lay down, come and we are working to improve stay. He gets along and plays well with my with my one year old active lab. They truly enjoy chasing each other and rolling around together. He is a bit timid when meeting new people but will warm up to them. Like most labs Café will clean his plate and will counter surf if there is something temping left out. He is fine being left alone for short periods of time if crated or left in one room. He sleeps through the night in his fosters room on a dog bed but will try to get on the Big bed. We are not sure about cats with him but he is not a high prey drive dog and we think he would be fine with cats. We would recommend a home with older children; children over 15. Café is a very healthy dog, has all his shots, neutered, microchipped, ears treated and tested heartworm negative. He is located in located in Mountain View.

Rose: 7-8 Year Old Black Female Spayed 60 Pounds
Sweet baby Rose was dropped at a shelter with no information. She had terrible and painful ear infections, and was so lethargic and uncomfortable that shelter workers originally estimated her age at 12. They soon revised the age to be 8, which seemed more consistent with her lovely shiny black fur, good teeth, and distinguished sprinkling of gray hairs around her muzzle. At the most recent vet visit, she weighed 60 pounds, so she’s a smaller Lab.
When we got her to the vet, they said she had at least two different types of ear infections, and one ear was so badly swollen that they couldn’t even look inside. Poor baby was really suffering, but rarely complained. We got her on some antibiotics for the infection and some pain pills for the discomfort, and within a few days, she was a different dog.
We’re pretty sure she doesn’t have much experience with being an indoor family pet, as she needed to be taught that dog beds are for her, how to walk on a leash, and even that she’s allowed to come inside (she waited very patiently outside the open door, and didn’t seem to think she was invited in). We even had to teach her how to play with toys; she’s still not much for balls, but she is now enjoying a squeaky toy. She LOVES to go on walks. Now that she has her energy back, she can’t get enough of her walks—though she’s still a bit pully, and surprisingly strong, we think she will be easily taught how to walk on leash once her ears heal well enough to tolerate a gentle leader leash. It’s a real joy watching her soak up the world around her. You often hear that rescued dogs are the most appreciative, and this dog is a great example of that—as she learns to cuddle with her people, play with her toys, or go on her walks, you can see how much she’s enjoying each of these new experiences, and it’s sometimes hard to tell whether the humans or the dog are getting more pleasure out of it.
When we’ve left her alone in the house, we typically come home to find her asleep on her dog bed. She’s had no accidents since coming to us, so she appears to be fully housetrained. She’s fine with our kids (7 and 10) and any friends who have come by, though no younger children have visited. When she’s home with us, she likes to be close to us, whether on a dog bed or on the floor. I think all dogs would love to have someone around most of the time, but I think she’s that wonderful hybrid of a middle-aged dog: she’d be fine if you were gone at work for a while, as long as you came home and gave her a fabulous walk or frolic. I think she’d be fine at a workplace, as I think she’d primarily sleep under the desk.
She’s been fine, if unfamiliar, with dogs she’s encountered at the vet’s office or in our neighborhood. Like with most things, she seems interested and inexperienced with dogs—she sometimes has hackles up, but shows no signs of aggression and simply engages in the “I smell you, you smell me” interaction with a happily wagging tail. Because of her recent spay, we haven’t yet taken her to a dog park, but that’s definitely on our list, as is taking her swimming. This is a dog that wants to discover the world with you, and doesn’t mind if you leave her at home sometimes, just as long as you come back for her and spend some good time playing together. The most recent estimate is eight years old, but her energy level is more like a five year old’s. She LOVES her squeaky ball, and wants to play!
We’re still treating her ear infections, but this is one happy, beautiful dog. If you’re someone who needs a dog who can relax at home while you’re gone, and then wants to play, play, play with a grateful and joyful dog, look no further, Rose is the dog for you. Rosie is microchipped, updated on her shots, heartworm tested, we are treating her ear infections. She is located in Menlo Park.

HENRY: 7-8 Year Old Male Black Lab Neutered 80 Pounds
Henry was a stray in Lake County. They think he was dumped off by the owner as someone called the shelter to let them know they saw a black Lab dumped in the field. His time was up at the shelter and they called us to see if we could help as he is a nice sweet Lab. We evaluated him and took him into our program. He has been boarded at a facility we use in Santa Rosa and they have done an evaluation on him and they say he is a very sweet dog. They think he may not have been treated that nicely as he is a bit hand shy. He has no issues with the other dogs and just wants to be with his people. He is good on a leash and he is fine if you take his food or toys away from him. We have had him in a foster home for a month now and Henry is thriving. He sleeps on his dog bed at night and can be left alone in the house with no issues. The foster parents say he is doing wonderful and will make any family happy (family with kids or an older household.) He loves to go on walks, and he is excited when he is in a field or park and gravitated to little children and water on any kind. He does like to fetch balls, but is not too pushy and will give up when his human stops. He loves to sit on the outside deck and does not have to be with his human the entire time but will follow is around if we are active. He has not done any barking or chewing on things. He is very calm on his walks and will respond to your voice. He rides well in the car and will just sit and look out the window. Henry is updated on his shots, neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative and he have had him in for a full blood panel and urine tests. All the results come back that Henry is a very healthy boy. He was a little thin when he came to us but he is now thriving in the foster home. We have asked the foster to not play too much ball with him until he can build up his strength in his back legs. (We think he was a dog left in the back yard and not walked much.) He is located in Menlo Park.

STANLEY: 6-7 Year Old Male Yellow Lab Neutered 80 Pounds
(Need to lose a few pounds!)
Stanley was a stray in Brentwood. A good Samaritan found him and took him to the local Vet's office. He did not have a collar on but he was microchipped. The Vet has put up flyers, called animal control and filed a report with them, has called the microchip company several times and no one has called back looking for Stanley. He went into a foster home for a week in the Brentwood area and then we were asked to take him into our program. The foster who had him in Brentwood fell in love with Stanley but could not keep him. We have Stanley in a foster home, have taken him to the Vet and have called the chip company and no one is still looking for Stanley and it has been over 30 days since they have found him. This is what we know about Stanley. The Vet said he was around 6-7 years old, when he was at the Vet's office he was fine with the other dogs and cats. We have him in a foster home with a small dog and he is fine with her. The foster has walked him around the neighborhood and they have not had any issues with Stanley when they see another dog on leash. With our current foster he sleeps on his dog bed through the night with no accidents. He seems to know some commands: "sit, stay, come on, paw, shake hands, let's go for a walk and no." He is a real gentlemen and he is very easy to grow fond of in a short amount of time. He likes to go for car rides and he is easy in the car. He likes to play fetch, he likes stuffed animals and is fine sitting at your feet while you work on your computer. We took Stanley into the Vet and he got a full check up. We had his ears treated for an infection, his teeth checked, heartworm test, updated his shots, had a skin allergy checked and did a full blood panel and Stanley passed all with flying colors. The vet said he was a real easy, sweet, nice boy, in good shape and they had no issues handling him. Stanley is located in San Ramon.

BUDDY: 2-3 Year Old Black Male Non-Neutered 80 Pounds
(Lab rescue will coordinate his neuter once adopted.)
Buddy is a beautiful black male lab who came from the Fresno shelter where he was found as a stray. His time was up in the shelter and we saw what a wonderful boy he was. We think Buddy is about 2 years old as he has a young face and very white teeth. He has a small white strip on his chest (this is the one acceptable marking on purebred labradors per the AKC standards). He is a very sweet and cuddly guy who knows basic commands such as, "No, Sit, Down, Shake, & Stay". Buddy rides well in the car and loves playing with his foster brothers (they are three other male labs). He loves to play a game of fetch and of course swim. He rides well in the car and would be a great family companion. We are unsure with cats, he did show some interest in them at the shelter. He has been hiking with his foster mom off leash and stays right with her. He would be an excellent companion for someone who loves the outdoors. Buddy does well with kids and had two little girls tugging on his ears and patting his belly and he was very content. He does well being crated for 4 or 5 hours at a time and goes into the crate without a problem. He does seem to have some separation anxiety when left out by himself, so it would be best if he went to a home where he could be crated for small periods of time when not with his person. He pulls a bit on the leash at first, but then settles in nicely. Walking him on a gentle leader or correction collar would be recommended. Buddy should go to a home that will get him plenty of exercise and a home that would be committed to continued training. Buddy has been evaluated by a vet where he was tested negative for heartworm, brought up to date on all his shots, and is on heartguard and frontline now. Buddy is located in Concord.

JACK: 2 Year Old Male Chocolate Lab Neutered AKC 85 Pounds
Jack was an owner surrender to the Martinez shelter. The owner purchased him from a breeder in Corning and has owned him since he was 10 weeks old. The owner wanted to get a puppy for his kids and they have loved Jack as part of the family but Jack snapped at one of their children so they took Jack to the shelter. We had a volunteer who is a professional dog trainer evaluate Jack in the shelter for us and she said Jack was a good boy and we should pull him from the shelter. We have Jack at a boarding facility that we use and he is doing great! Jack is being boarded and trained by Sapir Weiss's staff from Olivet Kennel. You can see Sapir's bio on Olivet Kennel. Jack has been an inside dog with his previous owner and currently he is being crate trained. Jack knows many commands and he wants to obey his pack leader. He knows: sit, down, heel, paw, off and he does walk well on the leash with a correction collar. At the boarding facility he is on play groups with the other dogs and he has no issues with any of them. The trainers at Olivet love Jack and think he would be a wonderful dog for an active household. He loves to fetch and when we met him at the shelter he jumped into the play pool. (We know he loves the water!) He rode well in the car and sat in the back and looked out the window with a smile on his face. We are not sure about Jack with cats and he should go to a home with children that are older. (We would recommend kids that are over 15 years of age.) Jack is very healthy and the family took wonderful care of him. He has not had any health issues since they have owned him. If you think you can give Jack the exercise and continued training he needs the please give us a call. Jack is a wonderful dog that will bring you a lot of smiles! Jack is located in Santa Rosa.

CHOCO: 8 Year Old Chocolate Female Spayed 90 Pounds AKC
(Needs to lose some weight. We have her currently on a strict diet.)
Choco came to Lab Rescue through an owner surrender. The family lost their home and had to move into an apartment where the landlord said no dogs. They did not want to take the dogs to the shelter so they contacted Lab Rescue. They purchased Choco from a breeder and she was AKC but they did not register her. They have owned her for 8 years and she has been an inside dog and part of their family. Choco has been in a home with another lab a 4 year old chocolate male but we feel they should be separated to help the boy with some protective behaviors. We met the two dogs in different settings and we had them both professionally evaluated. Choco is a very easy going girl who would thrive in any environment. She would be fine with kids, other dogs and a home if she needed to be left for a few hours. She has been around kids as young as two years old but she may at times jump up with excitement. Choco is housebroken and was left in the backyard during the day and would sleep on a dog bed inside the house at night. (The last few years she slept in the garage.) She has a very mild sweet temperament and has not had any issues with other dogs. When she was younger she would get out on a regular basis, go to dog parks and was around many other dogs. (The last few years she did not get out of her yard much.) We have her at our boarding facility and she gets to play with other dogs and she has no issues with any of them - young old, small and large. She is more of a people person and just wants to please. She will come when called, she will walk on a leash without pulling and knows sit, stay, down and heel. (She will need a refresher course on walking on a leash. She gets excited at first but then settles into a nice walk.) She loves to ride in a car, loves to swim, does not guard her territory, will take treats gently from your hand, does not have any anxiety and does not have any possessiveness towards toys or food. She does not have any leash aggression issues and does not bark at strangers. She is a wonderful girl that would love a home where someone is around during the day and someone who would get her out for walks, so she can lose a few pounds. She is spayed, current on her shots, heartworm negative and microchipped. She is missing some hair on her cheek where the owner mentioned when they moved something fell on her. She needs to lose at least 20 pounds and she needs to be eased back into regular walks. We suggest a couple short walks a day to start. She has a mild limp on her right front paw that may be a little arthritis due to her being overweight. (We had her checked out at the Vet and they said nothing structural was wrong with her.) This girl deserves a wonderful home to spend the rest of her years - she is VERY SWEET! She is located in Petaluma.

COCO: 3 1/2 Year Old Female Chocolate Lab Spayed AKC 85 Pounds
(She should lose a few pounds!)
Coco was a surrender owner to Lab Rescue as the owner was going through a divorce and had to move to a town home and could not keep two large labs with her. She will be working full time and she realizes this is not fair to the dogs.
Coco is a stunningly beautiful 3 1/2 year old spayed female Lab. She is a true chocolate color, with amber colored eyes.
She was raised with another Lab, and children from the ages 0-15. Coco is now house trained, and is sleeping on a bed in the foster's bedroom. She is extremely friendly and excited to meet and play with people. She does jump in excitement, but not on people. The foster is working on this.
Coco is so sweet and loving, but she does have some anxiety. This is totally normal given her change in circumstances - moving from an outdoor dog to an indoor dog can be stressful. The foster has been successfully using the crate and tie-down to calm her when she gets too excited.
Coco loves to play ball. She would play fetch all day if she could. If the foster's other dogs are playing too, she hesitates to release the ball - instead doing what the foster calls a "victory lap" around the yard before dropping the ball. She also will swim in a pool or lake at anytime of the year. She comes when called and knows sit. Coco plays well with other dogs and defers to a more dominant dog. She shows no aggression of any kind to dogs or people, even around food or toys. We are working on her leash walking skills and some basic obedience and she picks things up quickly. She is great riding in the car and we have worked on crate training her.
What Coco needs the most is attention, and exercise and structure. Daily walks and ball throwing will do wonders with her high activity level.
We recommend that Coco go to a home owner that will be the leader and give her the structure she has not had for the last three years. It will be in Coco’s best interest, if her new family attends training classes with her to establish leadership, trust and bonding. Coco could easily go to a home with other dogs, or possibly be the only dog. Coco is located in Saratoga. Coco is a very healthy dog and but needs to lose at least 15 more pounds. We have had her into the vet for a well check, microchip, ear cleaning, heartworm test and she will be updated on her shots.

COLE: 5 Year Old Male Black Lab Neutered 80 Pounds
Cole was an owner surrender. His family had to move for a job and could not take him where they were relocating. The have had him since he was 8 weeks old and bought him from a breeder in the central valley. He has grown up with kids and he is a very energetic, happy and loving dog. He has been well trained and knows sit, stay, down, lie down and he walks very well on a Halti, but will pull a little on a flat collar. He rides well in the car, doesn't counter surf, is housetrained and is use to using a doggie dog. He takes treats gently and has no possession issues. He loves to go for hikes, walks and has gone for some runs with the owners. He loves to have his ears rubbed and lay at your feet while you are watching television. He is fine if he needs to be left alone and does not have any anxiety. He is great with all dogs and has lived with a cat. He has gone to dog boarding facilities and when we checked he was wonderful with all dogs. He is a submissive dog. He loves to go for a swim and can stay in the water for hours! Cole does not like fireworks and he is a very sensitive dog. We think he has maybe gone to a hunting camp or has had a heavy hand to him as he is very sensitive when you correct him or if you raise your hand over his head. (He will lower his head and he will walk away.) We suggest he be adopted in a home with kids that are older as a home with young children running around seems to stress him out. The foster home took pictures in the living area and Cole did not like the flash and now he will not enter that room. He needs a home that will work with him on some of his fears and reassure him he will not be harmed. He does like to give affection and will lick your hands and feet when he can. Cole is very healthy and has no health concerns. He is a very sweet boy and we would love for him to go to a home that will work through some of his insecurities. He is located in Livermore.

LUCKY: 6.5 YR Old Black Lab Neutered 90LBS
Lucky is a beautiful pure bred Black Lab that came to us from his original family. They got Lucky from a breeder in Marin who bred papered Labs. They paid $800 for Lucky and got him when he was 10 weeks old. His owners do not have time for him and realized he needed a better life. The children used to be involved with Lucky but they no longer walk or play with him and Lucky spends most of his time in the back yard and the garage. They contacted Lab Rescue in hopes of finding a family who could give Lucky the time and attention he deserves. Lucky is in great health, he has been to the Vet on a regular basis and had had his Vet care kept up. He loves to be outside running and hiking! He was raised with children from the ages of 2.5 to 15 and does well with all ages of children, he is very gentle. He does get excited and his tail will wag and it may knock over a small child. Lucky currently sleeps in an enclosed area in the garage where he also stays when his owners are not home. (They currently have moved to a home that has a smaller yard and with the new baby they do not let Lucky come into the house.) He is housetrained and has great house manners; he would just need a refresher. During the day when his owners are home, Lucky is outside either in a dog run or in the yard. Lucky likes to be inside too and does well with a blanket or dog bed to stay on for short periods of time. He is very playful and loving with both dogs and people. He plays well with other dogs and enjoys visiting the dog park. He shows no aggression of any kind to dogs, food or people. He is inquisitive, loves to explore new things, and is a confident boy. Lucky absolutely loves to be touched, have his ears scratched, tummy rubbed and his coat brushed. Lucky has completed off leash training, however his owners have not maintained his training so a leash is a must. Lucky does well on walks and knows sit, lay down and stay. He loves water and toys that are durable. He knows to chew on his toys only. He likes to go for car rides and will settle down after a few minutes. Lucky still likes to act like a puppy and obviously needs to have lots of exercise and have more training, but he will grow into a wonderful adult dog that loves his owner. We are not sure about him and cats but when he is on walks he gets excited and it seems like he wants to chase them. He is microchipped, updated on his shots, been on regular heartworm medication and has not had any health issues. Lucky is located in the Petaluma area.

MAVERICK: 6 Year Old Male Yellow Lab Neutered AKC 70 Pounds
Maverick was purchased from a breeder in Texas and was raised in Texas until just over a year ago. The owners could no longer keep him so they started to look for a new home. Relatives in the Bay Area took Maverick into their home as he is such a great dog they did not want him shuffled around or did not want him to go to a shelter. They have owned Maverick for 7 months and feel it is best for Maverick if they find him a new home. For some reason Maverick does not like the boyfriend. When the boyfriend enters the room Maverick will fall down on the floor and he will crawl away from him. He will not eat when he is in the room. (Maverick was with the boyfriend's father in Texas and they look alike. They said they did not do anything to Maverick but our guess something must have been done to make him so afraid. He is not aggressive in any way with the boyfriend but he gets very scared.)
This is what they have to say about Maverick
Maverick loves to go on walks both on and off the leash. He knows most commands: Sit, stay, down, fetch, come and walks very nice on a leash. He gets along well with all dogs and just wants to play. He has never shown any aggression towards animals or children and has been around small kids. Maverick loves being brushed and loves to take baths; however, brushing his teeth is a bit more challenging. He is house trained and he knows how to use a doggy door. He sleeps on a dog bed through the night and he will let you know when he needs to go outside to use the restroom. He gets in and out of cars easily, he is also kennel trained. He chews on his toys; he does not chew on household items. He is getting better at playing fetch; he enjoys praise and loves to be petted. He can be shy when he first meets you, but he warms up very quickly. We currently have him with the neighbor as he is fine with them and he is fine when he meets other people out on the street. He would be fine in a home with cats as he has been around small animals and he would be fine in a home with small children. He loves to swim and will swim right along with you! Maverick is very healthy, updated on his shots, heartworm negative and microchipped. He is located in Walnut Creek.
