In an effort to combat the enormous number of purebred Labrador Retrievers put to sleep every day as a result of backyard breeders and puppy mills, we serve to save the lives of Labrador Retrievers and find them new homes. Rescuing a Labrador Retriever is a wonderful way to get the companion you want without contributing financially to the terrible backyard breeding problem and the abuse that exists for these wonderful dogs.
Each fostered dog will have spent at least a week in a foster home and will have been given a general exam by a veterinarian. Unless special circumstances merit exception, all dogs are spayed or neutered and up-to-date on normal vaccinations.We incur significant expenses in paying shelter redemption fees, veterinary fees, transportation costs, occasional behavioral evaluation fees, and so on, so we ask for an adoption fee for each dog. While some dogs cost less, others cost far more. If we are ever so fortunate to wind up with a surplus of funds on a given dog, those funds automatically go towards rescuing another dog or help offset expenses of existing dogs.
Additionally, unless there are special circumstance involving health, there are absolutely no refunds of adoption fees to an adopter if the dog is returned to us for any reason.
The following is the fee schedule for dogs:
$400 Puppies less than 1 year
$300 Dogs 1-3 years
$250 Dogs 4-7 years
$150 Dogs 8 years and up
(fee includes all shots, microchip and spay/neuter)
$20 fee for application/home inspection.
