Adopt Me: Maverick, a 2 year old Male Yellow Labrador, who is looking for his forever home.

Here is a bio from his foster family:

"Maverick is the most handsome boy. He is very happy-go-lucky and full of energy and love. He does well in a crate at night and if you have to leave for the day. He knows how to use the doggy door but occasionally has accidents in the house, but is improving with routine guided trips outside. He’s great with other dogs and loves to play and run. He gets very excited when new people come over but can easily get overwhelmed in a large group. He learns quickly and is eager to please. He loves all types of toys and loves to squeak them. He’s learning more manners every day and catches on quickly to structure. He is going to grow up to be a very good boy!"

***Please read carefully for Maverick full medical disclosure***

Maverick has been diagnosed with Tricuspid Valve Dysplasia. This is a genetic defect that we discovered through our routine examination with our Vet, and immediately set up an evaluation with a cardiologist. Upon completion of the echocardiogram with the doctor, it was decided that Maverick does not require any medication at this time to manage the dysplasia, and should be checked again in 12 months. This diagnosis shouldn't change much for Maverick, he should live a long and happy life. His diet does need to managed more closely, he should stay leaner with a balanced grain/protein diet. Maverick would not be suited as a long distance running/hiking buddy, but still should have regular and routine exercise. There is always the chance later in life Maverick might need medication to manage his heart, we cannot say for sure either way. For any families interested in Maverick, we are happy to forward the medical information for review.

"Meet Moka!

She is an incredibly loving and gentle dog with a heart full of affection. She loves playing fetch with her ball, and she’s just as content curling up for cuddles. She loves healthier treats like carrots, apples, or even blueberries which is great because Moka girl needs to lose a little weight. 

She is amazing with kids and does wonderful in her foster home with a toddler. She listens well when children tell her “no” and shows great manners around little ones. She is house trained and does a great job at letting you know she needs out. 

She has a calm, family-friendly demeanor. Moka will need a bit more work with crate training, and foster parent is working with her on it, she is eager to please and learns quickly so it shouldn’t be a big deal. She is afraid of cats and does really well with respecting the cats by avoiding them. This sweet girl is a total love bug and would make a wonderful companion for a loving family looking for a gentle, playful, and affectionate dog."

Adopt Me: Duke, an 8 year old Male Chocolate Labrador, who is looking for his forever home.

Here is a bio from his foster family:

"Duke is the total package: sweet, easygoing, and ready to be your loyal companion. He’s dog door trained, non-destructive, and perfectly content whether he’s snuggled up next to you or relaxing on his own. Duke is looking for that special furever family that values seniors with a little grey in their coat, but all the love to give.

Duke gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes, from playful pups to gentle giants. He’s independent but affectionate, happy to hang out nearby and soak up attention when it’s cuddle time.

This handsome boy would fit beautifully into almost any home; whether you already have dogs or you’re just looking for one calm, well-mannered buddy to share your space. "

PLEASE READ: Medical disclosures for Duke: Duke has had a senior wellness exam, along with his other vaccinations, microchip, etc. We discovered a small lump, thought to be a lipoma, but turned out to be mass cell cancer. It has been removed, with good margins and no other treatment needed. He has healed well from surgery and doing great. As part of the senior wellness exam, it is also noted that Duke has osteoarthritis. Although you wouldn't know it with his bouncy happiness, he may, at times, need pain relievers and/or anti inflammatories in the future. LVLR is happy to provide his medical records as part of your evaluation to adopt.

Adopted: Logan, a 6 year old Male Chocolate Labrador, has found his forever home.

Here is a bio from his foster family:

"Don't let the little gray on my chin fool you, I'm a spry young man! My favorite past time is chewing a bone on the couch next to you. And you'll never spend another minute alone with me in your life, since I will follow you everywhere closer than your shadow! I'll find a nice shady place to lay on the ground next to you outside on a nice sunny day. I'm still learning manners on the leash, but I ride in the car like a gentleman. I get along well with other dogs, but I'm not big on rough housing. Cats intrigue me, and I haven't shown any aggression towards them. Not really motivated by food or toys, but a good treat will get me to do anything. I sit and lay down when asked, and I will come when you call me. My nose can reach the edge of the counter, so keep an eye on me in the kitchen. But I'm good at laying on the rug near the kitchen and watching you cook. Somebody may have shared table food with me before, so I'm still learning manners when you eat. Love to sleep in with you! Eager to please and loving and loyal. I will be a great companion. "

I don’t play with toys much, but I do like to collect them and take them outside. I love to chew on a rope toy and will play tug of war with you. I love to chew on large marrow bones, fake dog bones and large dog balls. I get along with other dogs, but do not interact a lot with them. I will lay on the floor or my bed pad and watch the action. I will kennel with a bribe; however, I am good around the house and not destructive. I do not counter surf.

I love to travel in the car and load well. I know how to sit and lay down. I know what “out of the kitchen” means. When I am on the leash, I know what “heel,” “here” and “back” means. I also know what “come” means. I love to go for walks and hikes in the desert and walk well on a leash. I also love to sit with you at night and share blueberries with you. I sleep through the night on a bed pad next to the bed. I am looking for a furever home that will give me love, scratches and attention, and take me for walks and rides in the car. "

Adopted: Milo, a 4 year old Male Chocolate Labrador, has found his forever home.

Here is a bio from Milo's foster family:

"Meet Milo-this chunky chocolate lab has eyes and a personality that will melt your heart and make it almost impossible to say no when he wants just one more treat!  

He loves to go on long, leisurely walks to work off those extra treats just as much as he enjoys napping at your feet while you catch up on your latest shows.

Milo is house and kennel trained, knows how to use doggie doors, love car rides, and has the softest mouth when accepting treats. He is used to walking with a harness and is generally well behaved, although he may need a reminder to stay next to you if a new friend wants to say hello.

Milo has been fostered with large and small dogs, cats, and has met children. Despite his size, he is the gentlest soul with all and respects their space."

We have a gorgeous update for Doug, who turned 2!

We have another great Happy Tail this time for Gia (formerly Sammi)

"Gia is a perfect addition to our family! At the home visit, she seemed to know she had found her new home as she dropped my sandals into my lap and sat between us at the door instead of following her foster family. Since she came to us in May of 2024, she has completed individual classes with PC Dog Training, and now loves seeing her friends at group classes twice a week. Gia loves to meet new people and dogs, which was a plus as she has traveled to 15 states with us. We knew from the start that Gia's temperament would be perfect for being around our granddaughter, who was 1 ½ when Gia joined us. Gia is gentle with her and never far from her. Gia loves cuddles, chewing her bone after dinner, and taking sun baths. Thank you for helping us find Gia!

The updates and Happy Tails are simply incredible, we love hearing about our Labs.

Here is a Happy Tail for Ferris (formerly Fowler)

"Ferris has become the sweetest boy in our house. At first we were a bit hesitant with the level of his separation anxiety, but once he settled in and realized our home was his fur-ever home it all went away. We are so happy to have him part of our family. 

We are absolutely convinced Ferris was sent to us by our 2 previous labs as he is a combination of both their personalities

He loves his morning snuggles and is oh so proud of himself when he finds the squeaker in a new toy

We just need to find him a brother or sister; we want to get our dog a dog

Respectfully 

Matt & PJ"

We have a wonderful up date for Montana (formerly Bambi)

"Montana is the sweetest dog ever. Her favorite thing is to lay on the couch right between my legs to take her daily naps. She has a younger sister who is also a chocolate lab and they are inseparable. They play together and will occasionally “talk” to eachother. They go on nightly walks to the park and she loves to play fetch. We celebrated her fourth birthday and she was there when I got engaged. We originally adopted her to bring our first lab a friend, but we gained so much more having her join our family. We are so thankful for you guys for rescuing her and bringing her to us."

  • Bear 2025-11
  • Bear 2025-14
  • Bear 2025

Adopted: Bear, a 5-6 year old Black Female Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family:

"If you are looking for a 'beary' good girl, here she is! Bear is a sweet and loving cuddle-bug who will be a great addition to any family and is looking forward to sharing her joyful spirit.

Her ideal furever home is one that will take her on walks and toss the ball, but just as importantly make sure she has a comfy bed or spot next to you on the sofa for naps!

Bear is fantastic around small and large dogs, kids, and cats. She will lean into the energy of those around her if they are excited but quickly settles down and generally exhibits a calm demeanor.

Bear is a distinguished lady who is polite taking treats, respecting space, not jumping, and riding in the car. She knows basic commands like sit, but she does need brief reminders on walks at times that it’s ok to slow down and smell the roses.

She was not previously crate-trained, but she is making progress at spending time in one. When left on her own, she will find the nearest sofa or dog bed and settle in for a nap."

"My name is Xena, and I am a year and a half old.  I am a sweet girl.  I love attention and scratches all over.  I am still a puppy technically, so I still have the puppy energy.  I love to play and get along well with other dogs and kids.  I love to play ball, and I even bring the ball back to you; however, you must take the ball out of my mouth if you want it.  I am currently working on giving it. My other favorite toy is a braided rope; I love to play tug of war with it.  I kennel well, I am house broken and know how to use a doggie door.  I love to travel in the car and load well.  I do not counter surf and know the following commands:  sit, down, place, stay, come, no, kennel, fetch, bring and I am working on give and heel.  Since I still have puppy brain, it may take a second command to get me to complete the task.  I love to go for walks and hikes in the desert and walk well on a leash.  I also love to sit with you at night and share blueberries with you.  I am looking for a furever home that will give me love, scratches and attention, and take me for walks."

Adopted: Maverick, a 1.5 year old Male Yellow Labrador, has found his forever home.

Here is an UPDATED bio from his foster family:

”Maverick is doing great in his new foster home! He's energetic, but appreciates naps & downtime. Maverick still has some puppy tendencies, mischievous at times, loves to de-fluff stuffed toys, and tries to counter surf. In his new foster home, Maverick has a foster pup that engages with him, they play a ton and Mav takes turns being submissive and then leading the play. He has turned in to quite the snuggler, sleeping well through the night & cuddling up on the couch. He is getting better at the word, “no.” He is still a work in progress, is learning better on-leash habits and boundaries, and making small strides in crating. Maverick will be a great addition to a family, who will be committed to continuing his training, and giving him the time, love, affection he needs and deserves."

Adopted: Pepper, a 1 year old Black Male Labrador, who is looking for his forever home.

Here is an UPDATED bio from his foster family:

"HI, my name is Pepper, and I am about 14 months old.  I am mostly black with a few white markings on my chest.  I have a birth defect of my tail, which actually I think is pretty cute and goes with my personality.  It is like a monkey’s prehensile tail that curls at the very end but doesn’t affect me or my cuteness.  I am still a puppy and have lots of energy, but I am learning how to channel it to constructive purposes.  I love to play, love scratches all over my body and adore attention.  I sit and love to eat blueberries out of your hand in the evening as dessert.  My favorite toy is a 5-knot rope and a close second is a squealy bone.  I also love to play ball and I’m learning to give it back to you.  I kennel very well, and I am doing well left alone outside of the kennel.  I love to play with other dogs and get along with them.  I am house broken and use a doggie door.  I have learned not to counter surf.  I know the commands sit, stay (work in progress depending on how many distractions there are) place, out of the kitchen, do my business, kennel, down, (or lay down), heel, load and no.  I walk on a leash pretty well for a puppy. I don’t get on the furniture.  I go for long walks every day.  I love to ride in the car and I load well.  I still chew a lot, but when provided with many chew toys I am not destructive.  I have not learned to mark which is kudos for me.  I really look forward to finding  a furever home that will adore me as much as I will adore them and has time to take me on walks."

Please note: Pepper is on the smaller size of a typical Lab, and has a small birth defect, his tail curves in at the end. Our Vet doesn't see a reason to remove the curl, Pepper is happy & healthy and the defect in no way affects his quaility of life.

Adopted: Bambi, a 3-4 year old Female Chocolate Labrador, who is looking for her forever home.

Here is a bio from her foster family:

"Bambi is just the sweetest girl. She will definitely bond with you quickly. She likes to be close to her people but not over bearing. 
While she could use some leash manners she settles into her walk after a few minutes. She does need help in controlling her jumping and we’re working on that. 
She absolutely loves balls! No tennis balls as she will shred them. She enjoys the company of her foster siblings and enjoys a good playtime. After she will happily settle down for a nap. 
She is fully crate trained. She may whimper for a few minutes, but will settle down. You will have to give her some assistance to get into the crate. She has mastered our doggie door and seems 100% house trained. 
No slow feeder needed as she a gentle eater and takes treats nicely. 
Bambi will be a wonderful addition to any family."

  • Duke-13
  • Duke-17
  • Duke-19

Adopted: Duke, a a 4-5 year old Male Chocolate Labrador, has found his forever home.

Duke currently has the maximum allowed meet requests, please watch for updates.

Here is a bio from his foster family:

"Duke is a beautiful, deep chocolate Lab wrapped up in total sweetness! He is a very lovable, affectionate young Lab, who loves ear rubs, belly rubs and staying by his human's side. Duke came to his foster home very timid and apprehensive. He will go outside easily to potty, but is fearful of new surroundings and going into bedrooms. We are working on overcoming Duke's apprehension and he has made great strides in a short time. Duke sleeps through the night on his human's bed, loves his fresh fruits and veggies and car rides. He likes to go for walks and is a good leash walker, who can pull at times, but will listen when corrected. He knows sit, down and paw. He doesn't chase a ball or any other toys, is not destructive nor a counter surfer and is mostly content to just cuddle next to his human. He and his foster family's dog are always "pawing' for undivided attention from their humans. Duke would do great with small children and other dogs and  will make a fantastic addition to a family, who will be committed to giving Duke that extra special attention, love and patience he needs to feel secure and confident."

Happy Tail: Zoey & Gunner

We so love a great double Happy Tail!

"Hello and Happy New Year everyone!

We are settled in Prattville, AL and as you can see from the video clips, Zoey, Gunner, and Bella are loving their lives here! They have a big fence in the yard and love to chase the squirrels! 

Zoey is the queen of Alabama and collects beauty crowns wherever she goes! Do not let the beauty and crowns fool you, she is an original gangster and runs the house! Zoey is amazing and a joy and has helped her sister (Bella) to be a confident, demanding, and loving girl. The two of them are inseparable. Zoey has taken over the sleep number and puts herself to bed about 8 o' clock every night.  

Bella and Gunner are excellent pill takers, they gulp down their heartworm/Flea and Tick medicine every month, not Zoey. I have to make her peanut butter ball treats and cut her pill in quarters to get her to take it. After I have tricked her into taking her pill, she goes and pouts on the bed. 

Zoey is the 1st with everything. She gets her food bowl 1st, treats 1st, and will not allow her brother and sister to bark unless she gives them permission. If they bark 1st, she will run to them and bark in their faces, telling them to hush! 

Gunner is mellow and loves his Pa! He could care less about his sister's, who keep him on his toes! Gunner has numerous nicknames; Jethro, Guns and bones, bun buns, Bob, Robert, Slobbert (he drools for food and treats), and Clifford the Big Red Dog. He gallops around the yard like a pony! 

The kids pile into the cab of the truck every afternoon and off we go for a ride. Zoey is not a fan of long distance riding, but she tolerates the afternoon drives. Gunner loves to go, especially when he is in the big truck with his Pa! 

Bottom line, Zoey and Gunner are amazing along with their siblings to include the two kitties! They run the house, have taken over the sofa and bed and we love them! The kids are healthy and amazing! 

Enjoy the pictures and wagging tails! Please accept our apologies for the long overdue happytails update! 

Thank you LVLR, we would not have these wonderful kids if it were not for you!

Happy Tail: Cupid

We have an incredible, historic Happy Tail for Cupid!

"Cupid was quite the escape artist in her younger days, which ultimately led her to her forever family. She escaped one too many times and ended up at a kill shelter in Utah, where her previous family found her and surrendered her after one of her escapades in 2013. The Las Vegas Lab Rescue drove to Utah to pick her up and she was fostered where she found a best friend in a German Shepherd, Lightning. Their bond was instant and caused Cupid's foster family to foster fail because the two quickly became inseparable.

The day her family decided to adopt her, Cupid's bloodwork came back from Craig Road Animal Hospital where she tested positive for heart worms. The news was devastating, but her new family was ready to tackle her diagnosis. Cupid and her new brother, Lightning, were not allowed to play whatsoever and she had to live an unexciting live for quite a few months during the duration of her treatment. After a successful heart worm treatment, Cupid was finally able to live a normal life. Normalcy looked like chasing Lightning and her new brother, Chevy around the house, road trips across various states, or down the street to get a pup cup, and of course, lots of outing at the racetrack.

In 2020, Cupid moved with her mom to California where Cupids new friend lived, her dad Jeffrey. While her brother Chevy was ring bearer in her parents wedding, Cupid was the Pup of Honor on her mom's side. Living in California has included beach trips and lots of roadtrips to her her grandparents in Las Vegas. Today, Cupid is 16 years old. She is an older sister to Chevy (9 y/o pit mix), Kimi (3 y/o cat) and Getzy (2 y/o German Shepard/Rottweiler mix). She loves napping, snacking, and hanging out with her siblings at the race track. "

Here is a bio from his foster family:

"Sven is a chill dog. Likes to follow you around and is very affectionate. Uses the doggie door, knows a couple of basic commands. Not destructive. Gets along with dogs his own size and smaller dogs. When I check in on him on the cameras he’s either lying on his dog bed, couch or outside sunbathing. Sven will make a great buddy. He is recovering from 'Happy Tail', healing well, and may need to see our vet one more time to make sure it's fully healed."

Adopted: Durango, a 5 month old Male Black Labrador

  • Durango-2

  • Durango

Adopted: Durango, a 5 month Black Labrador, found his forever home.

Here is a bio from his foster family:

"Durango is a typical lab puppy with energy, excitement, and lots of snuggles. We are working on potty, crate and doggy door training and he is starting to figure it out. He is not a big fan of being left alone in the crate and has a typical stress response, but if he is in it for forced "nap time" and there are other dogs, humans, or the TV is on, he gets settled in just fine.  He is working on "come", "place", "potty", and "kennel" and gets better every day. He gets along well with our 3 senior dogs and respects their boundaries.

Durango is pretty skittish in new situations, sounds, and people but picks things up pretty quickly. He is highly intelligent and is paying attention at all times and he is adventurous and playful all the while he can be pretty mellow (for a puppy)!

Durango will need a caring and loving family who is committed to making him feel safe and secure and you will see his personality shine! He will need patience and consistency and will grow into a fine addition to a very lucky family. "

Adopted: Jackson, a 5 month old Male Black Labrador

Adopt Me: Jackson, a 5 month old Black Male Labrador, found his forever home.

Here is a bio from his foster family:

"Jackson is an extremely sweet and playful puppy. His ideal furever home is one that will be patient with him and support him when he’s unsure about how to handle a situation as he grows up.

He is already people-oriented and will look to you for reassurance if he hears loud noises or sees something “scary” (bikes and scooters are officially okay but he still isn’t a fan of skateboards on his walks!).

While Jackson is very playful with other dogs and people, he also enjoys a good cuddle and takes his nap time very seriously.

As a young puppy, he is working on his potty training and being able to stay an entire night in his kennel, but he is making great progress. He has almost mastered his sit, especially if you have a treat, and is quickly picking up fetch.

Jackson has been around small and large dogs, cats, and children. He is very respectful of other dogs and cats. He is a little skittish around younger children (5-6 or younger), especially if they are high energy, but does great with older children who understand how to behave around dogs.

Jackson will be a fantastic fit for a family that will provide him structure, keep his mind engaged so he’s not bored, and are looking for a gentle soul to keep them company!"

Adopted: Kevin, a 5 month old Black Male Labrador, found his forever home.

Here is a bio from Kevin's foster family:

"Kevin is a very energetic, goofy puppy and needs a forever home that will give him every aspect of training needed for a puppy.  
We are currently working on potty training and he has been doing well, couple accidents here & there. 
He has a tendency to be skittish sometimes & gets scared of quick movements and loud noises (but not the vacuum, sleeps right through it!)
He likes to crawl on you to get love. 
He gets along with dogs & teens, not sure about kids.
Kevin just needs a loving home & time invested in him. Kevin will be a great companion for an active family committed to his training, teaching him boundaries and building his confidence."

Adopted: Koda, a 2 year old Male Chocolate Labrador, who is looking for his forever home.

Here is an UPDATED bio from his foster family:

"Koda is an energetic and rambunctious chocolate lab who loves playing with his foster brothers and sister. He is a very active dog who will need lots of exercise. His favorite thing to do is chase a ball and gets super excited when its time to play. He will bring the ball back every time and very good with giving it back for the next throw. Koda is very smart and learns quickly. He has learned how to use the doggie door, learned a few commands and is eager to please. He knows sit, shake and down. He also knows drop when it comes to playing ball. He loves going for walks, but has a little anxiety to start and pulls a bit when starting the walk. We have been working with him on this and he is showing lots of progress. Koda is a bit shy when it comes to meeting people and will warm up pretty quick. He has a bit of anxiety when it comes to his kennel but is learning it is his safe space to relax. He sleeps through the night in his kennel and very excited to see you in the morning! Koda loves car rides and loves to "chat" with everyone in other cars. He is a bit of a counter surfer, but has learned to supervise and not taste test. 

Koda is good with our other pups, but we are not sure on cats. While Koda loves to play, he is not always aware of his surroundings and can be a little rambunctious. He would do well with an active family who will continue to work with and love him. "

Adopted: Drifter, a 3-4 year old Male Yellow Labrador, who is looking for his forever home.

Here is a bio from his foster family:

Drifter is timid at first, but quickly relaxes from pets & snuggles. Drifter does well other dogs, large & small, but we are unsure about cats. Drifter is house-trained, sleeps through the night, and is sweet & loving. He loves to play, can jump very high, and is responsive to learning more commands. Drifter will make a great companion.
