Donations Needed!
Over 65 dogs were saved and adopted out from January through March of this year. Many were heartworm positive, ill or required special medical care, with vet costs exceeding $35,000 in total. Your donation will help us ensure we have the funds to continue to save dogs like Gonzo, pictured here, and get them the vet care they need. Gonzo was found as a stray under a bush in an apartment complex with no certainty of what the next day would bring. After receiving proper veterinary care he is in the loving care of a foster home, with a full belly and a warm bed. Please donate and help us give more dogs like Gonzo a second leash on life. Donating is quick, easy, and tax-deductible.
Updated May 4, 2012 -- In Memory of Gonzo
It is with a heavy heart that DFW Lab Rescue acknowledges that sweet Gonzo passed away on May 2nd. He appeared healthy when brought in to our program but started showing signs of a respiratory illness and was taken to the vet for treatment. He remained there for many days, but for each step he took towards recovery, he took two steps back. We did all we could for him but eventually he lost his battle. Although we are saddened to lose him, we are comforted to know that he did not suffer alone, as a stray, with no medical help or human affection. Please consider making a donation in memory of Gonzo and all the other unwanted Labs who may otherwise suffer needless deaths without the intervention of groups like ours who provide the loving care and monetary funding to give Labs a second chance. Donating is quick, easy, and tax-deductible.
Yes! I want to help! Donate now!
Top 10 Reasons To Foster
As told through the hearts of DFWLRRC Foster Families (and Labs!)

Open your heart and your home - foster today!
- You meet GREAT people who share your passion and love for Labs.
- A family affair - fostering a Lab allows your entire family to participate in a volunteer activity.
- A foster Lab will kiss you...even when you have morning breath.
- There is nothing better than puppy breath (except maybe puppy kisses)!
- Companionship without a lifetime commitment - You can foster one Lab. It can be just a few days, a few weeks or a few months. It can be as long or as short as you like.
- Emotionally Rewarding - To see the light and life come back into an abandoned Lab's eyes, and know that YOU helped put it there!
- Fostering is proof that God does exist!
- Who couldn't use a little more unconditional love?
- Pure Joy - The memories that warm your heart and touch your soul...Christmas card updates...pictures and letters from all our adopted families.
- Because for every one Lab you agree to foster, there are ten others who will never get that opportunity.
