Lone Star Labrador Retriever Rescue (Lone Star Lab Rescue) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, all volunteer organization, dedicated to saving purebred Labrador Retrievers from euthanasia in city shelters throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
Our Meet-n-Greets will be held at the petco located at the south east corner of Preston and SH-121 in Plano. For a map and directions, please see our Meet-n-Greet information page.
Lone Star Lab Rescue normally has several Labs available for adoption. Unfortunately due to COVID19 restrictions, we are not able to go into shelters to look for Labs that need our help. Most area shelters have closed to dogs surrendered by their owners and will accept very few strays found by the public. We hope that the current restrictions will be lifted soon and we can get back to helping Labs in need. You are still welcome to complete an adoption application, so that you are already approved when we are able to bring new Labs into our program.
Applications are still required and even more important than ever to give us the information needed to make decisions. We still require home visits. We are keeping social distance and require that anyone that we meet with commit that they have NO COVID19 exposure that they are aware of.
During these extraordinary circumstances, we ask for your understanding and patience. We will be extremely careful when meeting anyone interested in adopting a Lab. No hand shaking, no hugs, no kissing except from the dogs!
These are dogs in our program that will be in medical care longer than our normal fosters. They'll be available for adoption as soon as they're healthy enough.
This gorgeous, 1.5 year old boy, is Dutch. We rescued him from a shelter a week ago. Unfortunately, he has pneumonia and is quite ill. Medications have brought his fever down, but he is still coughing and won't eat without an appetite stimulant. He’s losing weight.
Currently, he is hospitalized and on IV fluids, antibiotic injections and nebulizer treatments. We are grateful for any and all contributions to get this sweet boy healthy and ready for his forever home.
This year, we're partnering with Latin American Motorcycle Association of Dallas and Hogs4Paws. LAMA will be doing a Rscue Ride the first weekend of October.
