I wanted to take this opportunity to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who voted for and asked others to vote for Lab Rescue in the Chase $5M Community Giving Challenge. The results were posted today -LAB RESCUE OFFICIALLY FINISHED IN 21ST PLACE with 3,658 votes. WE ARE THE LUCKY RECIPIENT OF A $20,000 DONATION FROM CHASE.
Winning this donation is so amazing and so wonderful. There were so many deserving charities all supporting such important causes. We are extremely grateful for your support. This donation will go a long way to rescuing and providing veterinary care for so many labs that are currently sitting alone in shelters through no fault of their own. Thanks to your votes and your support, those labs will now have an opportunity to find a loving new home and to receive the love and affection that we know they all deserve.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you. From our labs, a grateful 'Woof'.

About Lab Rescue
Labs, loveable labs. That’s our specialty! At any given moment, we have 30-40 labs available for adoption – and adoption coordinators who are happy to help you find the perfect lab for your household. To get, started, fill out an adoption application. Want to come see some of our happy-go-lucky charmers in person (so to speak)? Come visit us at one of our Lab Adoption Days. If you love labs, and want to help us in our mission, please consider fostering, transporting or helping at Lab Adoption Days.
Like all rescue groups, we are perennially broke. We rescue and adopt out more than 650 dogs each year. We pay for our rescued dogs to get medical treatment, sometimes even surgery. Many of them come to us in poor condition, with skin ailments, heartworm positive, and unspayed and unneutered. Beyond medical costs, we also must pay kennel charges when they are undergoing treatment or when we have more dogs than we do foster families. If you want to make a difference to a homeless dog in search of a forever home, please considering making a donation!
From all the thousands of labs we have rescued over the years, a grateful "woof" to all who volunteer their time, donate their money, and provide loving homes. Have you got room in your home and your heart for one of our heartbreakers? There's a wagging tail and a world of unconditional love waiting for you - come take a look at our list of dogs currently up for adoption!
