Labradors & Friends Dog Rescue
Welcome! This is where we share adoption stories, upcoming events, and updates from the rescue. We’re an all-volunteer team that’s been finding loving homes for Labradors, Lab-mixes, and their friends since 2007 — grab a cup of coffee and see what’s new.
This week at Labradors and Friends…
Meet Charlotte and her seven babies, see Dolly’s incredible transformation, and discover how one foster home changed everything for Cody.
We’re also remembering a very special dog named Austin, sharing an upcoming adoption event, and celebrating the volunteers, fosters, donors, and adopters who make every rescue story possible.
Catch up on this week’s LAF Weekly Tail Wag! 🐾❤️
This week, five beautiful girls walked out of the shelter…and into hope.
Tango had waited four long months. Berry and Cherry were only puppies. Adele and Isabelle had simply waited far too long for someone to notice them.
Today, they’re safe with Labradors & Friends, and their next chapter has begun. Meet all five girls, catch up on this week’s rescue stories, and discover how your support continues to change lives.

Thank you for being part of the Labradors & Friends family.
Thank you for helping Labradors & Friends give every dog the second chance they deserve.
Last week, Emma’s story broke our hearts.
Attacked while heavily pregnant, she lost one eye and gave birth while recovering from surgery. Despite everything she’d endured, Emma never stopped being a devoted mom.
Because compassionate people said “yes,” she never had to face it alone.
Volunteers stepped in.
A temporary foster opened their home.
A loving foster welcomed Emma and her eight puppies to safety.
Veterinary teams gave Emma the care she deserved.
Today, Emma is finally doing what every mother deserves the chance to do—raising her puppies in a safe, loving foster home.
Sometimes rescue isn’t about changing the whole world.
Sometimes it’s about changing one family’s world.
And because people said “yes”…
Nine lives were changed forever.
