Featured Success Stories

Charlie

Charlie

Charlie became part of our lives in June 2016 when we fostered him. He was our first and last foster. He soon became the epicenter of our family and our lives and made us Foster failures. His amazing personality won over our hearts. On our first visit to the dog park he sat on the bench along with all the humans and watched the dogs. He would sometimes go hang out with other people just to be sociable. He was not much of a water dog preferring to stay on dry land. He loved car rides and Fairchild park was one of his favorite explorations. He loved sunbathing on his back in the garden and snuggling on the sofa. In 2019 he developed heart tumors and passed away in September. We still miss him every day and we were heartbroken for a long time but we think we can now look again for another Charlie

Steve

We were so fortunate to be matched with noble Steve! We wanted an older dog, and Steve was 8-1/2 years old when he came into our home and hearts. During the next almost eight years, Steve and his pal, Pepper, traveled with us on our boat to the Bahamas (many times), Turks and Caicos, Dominican Republic and many Caribbean Islands all the way down to Antigua. Car trips galore as well. Steve wove his way into every heart he passed and many mourned his loss in September of this year. He was always there to greet us with a toy in his mouth and an enthusiastic tail wag. Fred and I feel very lucky he entered our lives and we miss him terribly. I know Pepper does also.

Our organization is comprised of hardworking volunteers and veterinarian partners that are committed to placing Labs in new homes. Lab Rescue started in 2000 as a grassroots organization and has applied the talents and techniques of its volunteer base to become one of the most successful dedicated breed-specific rescues in the State of Florida.
