Erin is such a sweet, sweet girl.  She is about 4 months old and has had a rotten beginning to her life.  However, her luck has definitely changed.  Erin was picked up by a Good Samaritan as she was found wondering the streets completely emaciated.  The Good Samaritan contacted LLR and asked if we could help.  She said that Erin could not even stand and was not eating.  We instructed her to take Erin the nearest ER and we would make arrangements to be responsible for her.  The Good Samaritan did just that.  At the emergency vet, baby Erin was diagnosed with parvo and was not given much hope to live, but we knew different, this girl was a fighter.  With many people in her corner, praying and well wishes and of course, the excellent care she received, she pulled through and is now a thriving little girl with a wonderful disposition.  She is mild mannered for a puppy girl and is already house trained.  She is good with cats, other dogs, men, women and children.  She has been in a great foster home where she has been getting spoiled rotten and getting plenty of love and attention.  But now that she has recovered from her illness and has put on a significant amount of weight, she is ready to meet her new family.  Erin is a typical puppy and will need obedience training, exercise, and lots and lots of play time.  She is crate trained and very smart and easy to work with.  Oh, and she was named after the Good Samaritan that picked her up.  If you think you want to be Erin's new family, please fill out an online application and request her on the notes section.  She is spayed, up to date on all vaccinations and is heartworm negative.  She is micro chipped and kept on flea, tick and heartworm prevention.

Tink is a beautiful 3 to 3 ½ year old blond lab.  She is a victim of the hard economic times, whereas, her owner lost her job and was being put out of their home.  The owner had no choice but to find a place for Tink.   Lucky Lab was pulling another lab from the shelter when Tink came in, so this beautiful girl just left with us.  She is truly a wonderful girl, gentle, sweet, and loving.  At this time, Tink is in a foster home with 4 children, the youngest being 2 years old and she is doing great.  She is also sharing this home with 2 other canine friends and is having a blast with all the attention and fun.  She loves her doggie toys and balls and just running around the yard with her foster sister and brother.  Tink is a happy girl as indicated by her tail wagging and butt wiggles when she sees someone coming.  Tink is spayed, heartworm negative, up-to-date on her vaccinations including rabies and micro-chipped.  She is also on flea/tick medication and heartworm preventative.  Tink has good house manners (needs to be reminded on occasion) and is housebroken.  She is crate trained and is also good with the kitties.  She has learned the sit command and would excel in obedience training as she is eager to learn and to please her people.  If you are interested in giving Tink a secure, loving home, please indicate her in the notes section of the online application.

Ginger is a sweet, sweet chocolate with white lab mix.  Ginger came to us from a high kill shelter and almost did not make it out because there was no more room on the truck taking dogs to rescues.  A couple of volunteers hid Ginger until the next transport was ready to go.  We are so glad that we were able to get her.  She is a very special girl, not to mention very pretty, very sweet and very much a love to be around.  Ginger has that shy sweetness about her that makes you just want to give her a great big hug.  She bows her head and raises her left paw for you to take.  Ginger is probably not as old as she looks – her white muzzle matches the white markings on her chest, legs and feet.  Our guess is that she is about 7 years old.  She weighs about 50 lbs and is just a tad overweight.  Ginger gets along great with all of her foster brothers and sisters and runs and romps around the yard with them.  Even beats them to the tennis ball at times.  Ginger would do well in any family situation and she loves the attention she gets from her foster family.  She has the biggest, warmest brown eyes and when she looks at you it is with a smile.  Ginger would make a wonderful companion for an older couple or single person.  She would love to snuggle in front of the TV or go for long walks on these beautiful fall evenings or just hang out and be your best buddy. Ginger is spayed, heartworm tested, up-to-date on vaccinations including rabies and micro-chipped.  She has great house manners and is housebroken.  She also does not mind being in a crate and she is good with cats.  Ginger is definitely a love and if you would like to learn more about her, indicate Ginger in the notes section of the online application.

Mabel is a beautiful 1 to 1 ½ year old labby girl.  She came to us when we received a call regarding a stray dog hanging around a rural farm area.  We went to investigate and found Mabel.  With the warm and friendly personality that she had, we immediately fell in love with her and took her to one of our foster homes to be cared for.  After about a week, it was determined that this beautiful girl was pregnant and on June 6th she had 9 of the most beautiful and healthiest puppies that Lucky Lab has ever seen.  They have all been adopted and happy in their new homes.  Now it is Mabel’s turn to find her happiness with a loving family to call her own.  Mabel has the warmest brown eyes and beautiful black coat.  She weighs about 60 lbs and is in the process of getting her girlish figure back.  Mabel loves to play catch with the tennis ball and just run around the yard with her foster brothers and sisters.  She even likes the resident kitty.  She does pretty well on a leash and holds her head high as she struts around the neighborhood taking everything in.  She loves hugs and good girl praise and is very eager to learn.  Mabel still needs a little work on her manners, but she is doing very well.  Her foster mom thinks that she is the greatest and deserves only the best life has to offer.  We think that she would be a great girl for the water as she likes to stand in the water dish outside and splash water all over.  Mabel has been spayed, heartworm tested, up-to-date on her vaccinations, including rabies, and micro-chipped.  She is also crate trained.  Mabel would excel in some obedience training as she strives to please her people.  If you are looking for a wonderful family companion, walking partner, swimming buddy, and hiking pal then look no further.  Mabel would do great in all those categories.  Indicate Mabel in the notes section of the online application if interested in learning more about this sweet girl.

Buddy (Adoption Pending) is a beautiful and big Yellow Lab purebred.  He is about 2 years old and weighs about 85 lbs.  Buddy has a great disposition and is very friendly; however, this big boy does need to brush up on his obedience skills.  Buddy is big and strong and will need a firm handler (not necessarily in stature, but in leadership skills).  Buddy likes to be the boss of his human and needs a human who will show him that humans are the leaders and that he needs to get in line with the pack (which means that while he is a very, very valued member in the family pack, he is low man on the totem pole and needs to follow the direction that his pack leader has set for him).  In saying all of this, he is absolutely a nice dog, smart and will learn quickly.  He loves humans and gets along great with other dogs.  He has been socialized with men, women and older children and can even hang with the kitties (who are ultimately in charge and Buddy has learned that quite well).   He loves to play fetch with the Kong ball and chew on compressed rawhide bones.  He takes treats nicely and knows “sit”.  He has not been tested in the water, but I am sure he would love to take a swim, hike, run, walk the neighborhood and just plain hang with his humans.  He does okay on lead and will make a great family member or a companion for a single person. Buddy has been neutered, up-to-date on all vaccinations and is heartworm negative.  He is also micro chipped and kept on Frontline and Heartgard.  If you would like to adopt this gorgeous boy, please fill out an online application and request him on the notes section. 

Phoebe (aka Febers, aka Big Brown Bear) is a gorgeous lab/chessie mix and is such a sweet girl. She is big weighing about 80lbs and is about 3 years old.   Phoebe is a 2^nd time LLR alumni.  She was adopted out about a year ago, went through obedience training and graduated with flying colors.   She is house trained, crate trained (can be left out of the crate) and knows some commands.  She is good with older children, cats, men and women and is great with other dogs.  Phoebe was returned to our rescue as her previous owner could no longer care for her as her work load increased.  You see, Phoebe is epileptic and requires some special care.  Not too much though as she takes her medications two times daily (a.m. and p.m.) with her meal time to prevent any seizure activity.  She has not had a seizure that we know of since April of this year and her medications cost approximately $30 a month.  Other than that, Phoebe lives a normal dog life and knows no different then, eating, playing, sleeping, getting human attention, chewing on bones, and being a good girl.  She has had many medical tests that reveal  no other medical issues with her and the docs say that some dogs are just epileptic and need to be on medications for life, but no other issue arise and they live very long and healthy lives.  Phoebe is a wonderful dog and deserves a family of her own who will give her good loving care.  If you think you are that family, please fill out an online application and request her on the notes section.  Phoebe is spayed, up-to-date on all vaccinations and is heartworm negative.  She is micro chipped and kept on Heartgard and Frontline.  

Hello my name is Prince.  I’m not sure why someone named me that because I sure don’t act like a prince, and why would they name me Prince and then get rid of me this blows my little mind.  Well, anyways I’m about 5 or 6 months old and almost 40 pounds.  First things first I love taking naps and curling up next to my foster mom.  Second, belly and neck rubs are the best and yes I do make funny noises sort of like a pig (I can’t help it I enjoy it to much)!  Third, water yes water I’m a growing boy and need lots and lots of water, sometimes I just lay next to the water dish so I have easy access to it.  Finally fourth, I love to chew on bones really any kinds.  I leave pretty much everything alone as long as I have something to chew on.  I’m also pleased to announce that I’m almost house broken and rarely have accidents in my kennel.  My foster parents and I are also working on my manners which I must say I’m getting pretty good with sit (at least when it is treat time).  I’m a quick learner so I don’t think that I will have much trouble with my other manners.  My foster family has two labs of their own and I love to romp and play chase with them in the yard.  One last thing you can’t tell from the pictures but I do have a little white line on my chest and the back of three of my paws have white on them.  I’m up-to-date on all of my vaccinations and have been neutered.  I’m heartworm negative and will also be micro-chipped before I go to my new home.  If you are interested in me which I hope you would be please fill out an online application and request my name in the note section.

Lebron (Adoption Pending) (Brony) is a sweet, sweet, sweet boy.  He is absolutely a favorite in the foster home.  Brony is about 1 year old and is an average size for a Lab boy at 65 lbs.  Brony is a mix we believe of lab and greyhound and has a mild disposition.  He knows sit, pays no attention to the cat, and is good with children, men, women and other dogs.  He is an all-around great boy who really loves human attention and gets all squiggly when his foster mommy pays special attention to him.  Brony is shy at first and will take some patience as he warms up to his human friends, but once you got him, he is defiantly yours.  Brony would love to have a family with a somewhat stable structured home environment (in other words, he may not do well in a chaotic home) and a very nice and cushy dog bed.  He walks well on lead, takes treats nicely, is crate trained and appears to be house trained.  Brony would love to take neighborhood walks and go to the dog park to meet some puppy friends.  He would be classified as a medium energy boy, but will need to have appropriate exercise and family time dedicated to him. If you would like to adopt this wonderful boy, please fill out an online application and request him on the notes section.  Brony is neutered, heartworm negative, up-to-date on all vaccinations.  He is also micro chipped and kept on Frontline and Heartgard.

Gorgeous Lola is a 1.5 year old Lab/Spaniel mix and is on the smaller side, weighing about 45lbs.  Lola knows some obedience commands, she is house trained, crate trained and gets along with other dogs and the cats most of the time, she does like to show her bossy side from time to time, but her foster siblings handle it very well.  Lola is a super sweet girl and likes to cuddle with her foster mom and get lots of love and treats.  However, Lola is a girl that has some issues to be managed.  Lola has some fear issues and shows some mild aggression toward new humans.  When meeting a new person, she will stand back an growl at them and has nipped at them before.  Obviously, this will make her chance of adoption difficult, but we know there is someone out there who will fall in love with this girl and take her in, issues and all.  Once she gets to know a person, she is putty in their hands and vice versa.  Lola needs a home with no children and someone who will respect that she has issues and help her to manage her fear of new humans.  We think she needs a home away from chaos so that she can just be a normal dog with little stress in having to meet a bunch of new people all the time and that her surroundings will be comfortable and consistent.  We are unsure if she will be able to overcome this issue entirely, but we feel that someone who would be willing to try to help her in this way or would be willing to manage her behavior she would do great.  It is not terribly difficult as she is sweet and worth the effort.  

She is very loving and submissive to her foster family and deserves to live a good doggy life.  We take aggression very seriously and usually do not adopt dogs who show aggression, but Lola is different and though she has some aggression tendencies, they are highly manageable.  She has been seen by a behaviorist who agrees with this assessment and feels that Lola should live a normal life with a quiet family and environment.  Lola if completely vetted, micro chipped and kept on Frontline and Heartgard.  If you would be interested in adopting this girl, issues and all, please fill out an online adoption application and request her on the notes section.

Cutie boys Hunter (still avaliable) and Gibson (adoption Pending).  They are gorgeous pups about 6 months old.  They are both your typical Lab puppies who love to play, eat, sleep, play, eat, sleep, get human love, play, eat, and sleep.  Hunter and Gibson are crate trained and working on house manners; they have been socialized with men, women, and older children and get along well with other dogs.  They like to investigate the mean ol foster kitty, but he is grumpy so they tend to steer clear of that furry thing.  Hunter is a bit more dominant, while his partner in crime is a bit more submissive.  Both tend to be a bit shy at the first meeting, but quickly overcome that with a bribery treat (mostly yucky smelling liver treats, gross, but oh so yummy).  Both boys are neutered, heartworm negative, up-to-date on all vaccinations.  They are also micro chipped and kept on Frontline and Heartgard.  If you are interested in providing one of these boys a good home, please fill out an online application and request them on the notes section.

Jillian is a one year old black purebred lab female.  She is on the smaller side weighing about 55lbs.  Jillian would be classified as a higher energy girl, but she is extremely smart.  Take her intelligence and match that with being very treat oriented, she will be easy to train.  She does know some commands like sit, but could definitely use an obedience course to make her the polite little girl that she is meant to be.  Jillian loves to play fetch, gets along with other dogs well, socialized with men, women and older children and probably not so good with the cats.  She takes treats nicely and loves to get human attention.  Jillian is friendly and will make a great family member or a companion for a single person.  She will do well as a running partner, loves to swim, and will be great at the local dog park.  She seems to be house trained and is crate trained as well.  Jillian is spayed, up to date on all vaccinations and is heartworm negative.  She is micro chipped and kept on heartworm, flea and tick prevention.  If you would like to adopt this girl, please fill out an online application and request her on the notes section.
