AVAILABLE DOGS
These dogs are searching for their forever home...
The following is a representative list of Labs available for adoption through the Dallas | Fort Worth Labrador Retriever Rescue program. On average we have approximately 30 Labs in foster homes. Labs come into the program and are adopted daily, so this is not always a complete listing. All dogs are spayed or neutered and tested heartworm negative unless otherwise stated. Adoption fees for an adult Lab is $250 and puppies (6 months and under) are $350.
Prior to meeting our available Labs, we require that you complete our adoption approval process which begins with completing the on-line adoption questionnaire. The adoption process is initiated only when we have received a completed application. It is important that you fill out the application completely, incomplete information may delay the process! If you have additional questions, please contact us.
You may leave a message at 972.881.5544. Please understand, this voice mail is not checked daily; our volunteers typically return calls within five to seven days.
| Lilly - 8.8 Year Old Female | |
More Pics 3 Status - AVAILABLE |
Lilly is a wonderfully loving dog who gets along well with all my dogs,
both big and small. She does best in a crate whenever I'm out of the
house, because she's a very agile counter-surfer! She will find
whatever there is to find up there! She goes easily into the crate
when given a treat, and stays there while I'm at work. When I'm home
she follows me from room to room, always ready for a pet and a kind
word. She loves to cuddle up to watch TV, and sleeps soundly on a
dog-bed beside my bed.

| Peach - 4.6 Year Old Female | |
More Pics 3 Status - AVAILABLE |
Hello, my name is Peaches and my favorite place to be is wherever you are! I love to chase the tennis ball (I don't always give it back easily but I am working on this), I am a fan of water on hot days and I am full of energy. I would be a good running buddy, if you are looking for company on your morning or evening runs or walks. I really like nice long walks or runs, and will keep pace with you nicely. As for cats - my foster parents have one and I have learned not to mess with this cat...but if you have one, I may try to chase and play with the cat in a manner they don't like. I am trusted in the house while my foster parents are at work, I don't need my crate anymore. I will go into a crate if you want me to otherwise I may get on the couch or the bed while you are gone, but I promise not to destroy it...just keeping it warm for your return. My foster mom always says "you can't judge a book by its cover" - I ask that you don't judge me by my looks, I think I will surprise you in what a companion I can be for you and your family. Peach is available for $175 as her breed status cannot be determined.

| Jingle - 7.6 Month Old Female | |
More Pics 3 Status - AVAILABLE |
What are little Labradors made of?Sugar and spice and everything nice...frogs and snails and puppy dog tails!Jingle is a very typical Labrador puppy - intelligent, with an enthusiastic attitude toward life and a cheerful tail wagging nature - she has the uncanny ability to go from sweet and snuggly to a baby termite in one minute flat (or less)! Everything goes in her mouth (especially socks and slippers) - and she plays a great game of "U Can't Touch This!" She loves to play with her foster brother - a good game of chase, fetch, tug, wrestling, or sniffing out their next adventure! At the end of a hard tough day at play, she's ready to curl up on your lap to watch TV! Jingle knows sit, is crate trained, and is learning to use the doggy door. She is a young Labrador (Lab's mature around 3 years of age), and will require lots of love, attention, exercise, and obedience training to grow into a happy, healthy well mannered adult! Jingle would like a home filled with love, people, other dogs, and a box filled with toys that she can choose from to carry around in her mouth! Give Jingle a little love, and she'll return it back ten fold. |

| Cesar - 3.1 Year Old Male | |
More Pics 3 Status - AVAILABLE |
Hi! I'm Cesar, a handsome well fed yellow lab. I am around 3 years of age according to the vet. I was a stray before I was rescued and found a nice foster family. I love playing ball and competing with my foster sister for attention. I like to go on walks and have been learning to use a gentle leader collar since my foster mom likes them. I sleep all night in my crate, but don't like to go in there without extra encouragement. I am very happy and would love to find a new home!
Cesar is an 80lb lab who seemed to be a little out of shape for his height and age. He's doing much better after a couple weeks of ball playing and daily walks. He does needs more reinforcement in order to be fully house trained. He has been using a doggy door at our house. He's very loveable and seems to learn quickly. He knows how to sit and shake and is learning down. He spends about 8 hrs in the crate while we are at work without any problem. He has adjusted quickly to our home. I think Cesar would fit into any family situation, though he has not been exposed to small children or cats. |
| Duff - 2.7 Month Old Male | |
Status - AVAILABLE |
I am so cute I can hardly stand it. I am doing so good at potty training (too bad my foster parents don't pay better attention). I still wake up at night to go out. I am still not sure about the crate but it is growing on me. I love my big foster brothers and sisters (human and doggie). I also like laying on the cat. If you want to meet me I'm up for anything, so give me a call.
Talk at ya soon Duff |
| Boyd - 2.6 Year Old Male | |
Status - AVAILABLE |
This sweet brown Teddy Bear is a bundle of love. From his sloppy kisses, to his want to please, he is all around one happy lab. He was not sure how to get up in the car, but he was certainly happy once we gave him a boost. This goof ball is tame and adorable, two perfect qualities for his new furever home! |

| Torre - 9.9 Month Old Male | |
More Pics 3 Status - AVAILABLE |
Torre is a charming, submissive and active chocolate lab. He hasn't met a dog he doesn't like. And better yet, there hasn't been a person that met him that hasn't commented on what a great personality he has, not to mention how handsome he is. At only 9 months, Torre is a big boy weighing in at almost 90 pounds, though he should be closer to 80 pounds right now. He is very tall for a lab and will likely be almost 100 pounds fully grown. He is crate trained and potty trained and knows the command 'sit'. We are working on 'come', 'crate up', and 'wait' as well. Torre is your typical puppy- he has lots of energy, loves toys, loves to play with other dogs, and is eager to please. His ideal home is one with another active dog for him to play with (and help him burn off his energy) and one with no small children due to his size and puppy mouthy-ness. Torre can be excitable when first let out of his crate or inside, however after a little time he tends to settle in on the couch - for hours at a time- self entertaining with a good bone (or two, or three- he loves them!). If you are looking for a young dog that will be an active companion and melt your heart, then come meet Torre.

| Wyoming - 4 Year Old Female | |

Wyoming is a sweet girl that does wonderful in the car and has a perfect lab disposition. At one point she lived in a home with other
dogs with no issues to report. As you can see, she has a love for food and can use a little diet and exercise. |
| Seattle - 4 Year Old Male | |
More Pics 3 Status - AVAILABLE |
Seattle is one of those handsome, sweet labs that makes me happy to bepart of the program. He is laid back and gets along well with our
other dogs and cat. No house accidents or unauthorized chewing inover 4 days and seems fully housebroken and crate trained. Loves to do all the typical lab stuff like swimming and chasing tennisballs. He is a healthy, happy guy who even gives kisses. Will do well in any home with proper exercise, discipline and affection. |
| Tacoma - 3 Year Old Female | |
Status - COMING SOON |
Tacoma is a very sweet Chocolate female. She is being treated for heart worms so she isn't quite ready for adoption, yet. Because she has to spend almost 24 hours a day in a crate, we don't know too much about her - like what kind of training she may have, how she is on a leash, if she likes to play fetch - that kind of stuff. What we do know is that she has a great appetite and loves to eat! She is very friendly towards people and other dogs. She is house trained and crate trained! Check back again to see how Tacoma is doing! Before you know it, she'll be looking for her forever home! Tacoma is undergoing heart worm treatment and will be available soon. Stay tuned for updates. |
| Phoenix - 5.5 Month Old Female | |
Status - AVAILABLE |
Phoenix is a sweet, beautiful 5 month old chocolate lab puppy. She has lots of energy and loves to play with all her foster brothers and sisters. She's crate trained and so far, no accidents in the house! Phoenix is a joy to have around and is incredibly focused and alert - always waiting for her next command as she is very eager to please. Phoenix would do well in a home with other dogs for companionship or with an active family.

| Raleigh - 1.5 Year Old Male | |
Status - AVAILABLE |
If you like Hershey's kisses you will like me! I am as sweet as chocolate and will never disappear. I am very playful, full of energy and love to chase a ball. I enjoy being with my foster family and my foster brother, a yellow Lab. I am a smart boy...I can sit, fetch a ball, and walk right into my crate with out trouble. Given some time, I can be taught to do many things that other dogs can do. I am so thankful to be off the streets, and hope to find a forever home soon. Love, Raleigh
P.S. If Hershey's Kisses are not your favorite chocolate, don't worry, I can be your favorite Chocolate Lab. Come meet me and let me show you how sweet I am. |
| Geronimo - 3.9 Month Old Male | |
More Pics 3 Status - COMING SOON |
Geronimo here, or "Mo" as my foster family calls me. I am just as sweet as candy and I love to snuggle. I am a wonderful pup who gets along with all my foster brothers and sisters, the four legged and two legged kind. I am a happy little guy who is content just about wherever you put me. I am still working on my potty training, but the other Labs in the house have been teaching me about going outside and I am doing a great job! My foster mom says I have the most beautiful eyes and I use them to tug at her heart strings...I'm not sure what that means, but I do get an awful lot of attention!! If you want an adorable pup to join your family, I'm the guy for you. |
| Silver - 1.5 Year Old Male | |
Status - COMING SOON |
One word to describe me is lover. I love everything...my foster
parents and foster boys, other dogs in my foster's home, giving kisses,
playing with tennis
balls, being outdoors and being in the house. Even though I
weigh 75 lbs., I am a gentle, calm boy. I know when to play and when to
settle down. I love to be near people and love being loved on. I
could sit next to you all day, loving on you and you loving on me. I am
very smart and can be taught to do many things by someone who would
take time to train me. Contact my foster parents to meet me and let me show you all the love I have to
share.
P.S. I know how to sit, fetch and I walk well on a leash. |
| Tonto - 3 Year Old Male | |
More Pics 3 Status - COMING SOON |
Tonto is a very sweet, mild mannered lab. He is a big guy, about 88 pounds, but he is very gentle! He is definitely not high energy and loves to just lay at your feet when you watch television. He is already housebroken and has good inside manners. He is kind of needy for human attention and follows you around everywhere, but I think that will get better with time and as he gets comfortable in his new home. He walks pretty well on a leash, and that should get better with time and practice as well. If you are looking for a laid back companion, Tonto is your dog! |
