Adopted: Mia, a 6 month old Black Female Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"Mia is a great little puppy. As she's young, she needs work with potty training and her new family will have to put in some time to train her properly. She’s playful and really holds her own around other dogs. No issues with small dogs or larger dogs, just very happy and energetic towards all. She’s still not super accustomed to her crate and doesn’t like sleeping in it but she will go in it for a couple hours. Though from what I’ve noticed she does learn fast such as with commands like “come” for example. With a family dedicated to teaching her manners, expectations and boundaries, I feel confident she’ll be fully trained in no time."

Adopted: Kimber, a 1 year old Female Black Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"Kimber is a wonderfully sweet, loving Lab. She is timid and shy at first, a little unsure of her circumstances, but once she's comfortable she's very affectionate. We're working on her confidence, as she's not a fan of the crate nor being left alone, but she gets better every day with consistency, love and guidance. Kimber rides well in the car, is house trained, sleeps through the night and is happiest when she can cuddle with a human. She's doing well with the other dogs in the house, and is beginning to play a little more. For a younger Lab, Kimber is surprisingly laid back and calm, she's really a sweet, gentle soul. Kimber still needs to work on some manners, she's curious about counter surfing, pulls on leash, and would really thrive with some training, patience and boundaries. Kimber will make an incredibly loving, wonderful furry companion to any family with a little patience to build up her confidence."

Adopted: Layla, a 7 month old Female Chocolate Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"Layla is one of the sweetest dogs I’ve ever met. Despite her having been a stray and her young age, she is a very well behaved, relatively mellow, and a sweetheart. She will follow you around wherever and just sit next to you until you’re ready to pay attention to her again. She is still getting accustomed to reacting when her name is called so patience is required but that is to be expected. She does very well with small dogs, is gentle with them, and loves to play. While on our walks she has been cautious around bigger dogs. Her future family should be ready to have enough discipline to train her as she is not yet used to walking on a leash. Currently she is not fully potty trained but hasn’t had any accidents since the first the day we took her in so I believe she’ll get it down in no time. She does not cry while being in her kennel, sleeps through the night and hardly barks in any circumstance. She does have a hard time wanting to go inside her kennel so I would suggest spending some time working with her in that respect. Overall Layla deserves a family that has an open heart and schedule, in order to play and spoil her with attention. "

Adopted: Lucy, a 4 month old Black Female Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"Lucy is a typical 4month old little Labrador. Puppies will be puppies and she does not disappoint. I’ve only had her a short time and she has already learned a lot. She knows the phrase “go potty” and will go pretty much on command, but occasionally just can’t get out the door quick enough. She does ok with the crate but would much rather be in your lap. She is getting to know the doggie door, but mine is a bit too big for her little tiny body just yet. I have no doubt though that she is a quick learner. We are working on “sit, lay down and stand up”. . . but have a ways to go of course. She loves to be held and carried. . . . just like a little baby. If MY Labrador would permit it (he’s being a real brat) she would love to play with him. She is fascinated with birds and saw a cat yesterday that she would have loved to play with. . .it was so close to her size! Lucy is just adorable and will quickly melt your heart. She will do well with someone who will cuddle with her, yet be firm in her training. She’s a little shy with people that she doesn’t know, but warms up once she has assessed their intent. Lucy is going to be a great addition to someone’s life! "

Adopted: Little Bear, an 11 month old Labrador, has found his forever home.

Here is a Bio from his foster family……..


"Little Bear is a beautiful young boy with lots of energy. He is good in the kennel but needs some coaxing to go in it. We are working on potty training with only 2 accidents in the house. He learned quickly to use the doggie door. He loves going for walks but needs some training. Little Bear loves to play, he likes to fetch and then play hard to get. Overall, Little Bear is a great dog and will make a great companion for someone who is willing to take the time to train him."

  • Buddy2018-19

Adopted: Buddy, a 6 month old male black Labrador, has found his forever home.

Here is a Bio from his foster family……..


"Buddy is a playful puppy, full of energy. He loves toys, especially his tennis ball. He enjoys tug of war, bones, treats and fetch. He shows interest in other people and animals. He warms up to people upon meeting. He has a lot of love and kisses to give! He is adjusting to his new environment including his crate and walking on leash. He may bark or whine when excited. He rides well in the car and is sleeping overnight in his crate. As long as he is provided with adequate and frequent time outside, he does not have accidents indoors. Buddy is working on learning the command “off” to not jump on people, and like any puppy, needs to work on his manners. Some sounds or new objects may spook him as he is adjusting to a new environment. He had recent surgery to be neutered and rear dew claws removal and is healing well, no issues. With time, structure and boundaries, Buddy will make a wonderful companion for an active family. "

Adopted: Piper, a 2 year old Female Chocolate Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"Piper is a very special Lab in the LVLR family. When she came to the rescue, we soon discovered she had some issues with her teeth, requiring extra time and research to find the best course of medical care to ensure a long and happy life. Through x-rays we soon learned Piper had an impacted lower canine tooth that had never grown in properly, that was actually underneath the roots of her other teeth. This situation called for an extraordinary canine dental expert, and after a good deal of research and interviewing, we found the right specialists in Arizona, Canine Dental Specialists, Dr. Alex Adrian. Two board members for LVLR then took Piper to Phoenix for her surgery, and while it was complicated and detailed, she was in the very best medical hands. We are so very happy that it went well, and Piper is 100%! She's missing a few teeth, but now lives a pain free life.

As for Piper herself, she is a beautiful, smaller Lab with the glorious disposition and energy you would expect from a 2 year old! Although always good to go, she is just as happy curling up next to us watching TV or reading a book, and loves to lie in the sun while I am working at my computer. She gets along very well with my dogs and quickly became part of the pack. Piper is happy, confident and likes to think she can be the leader of the pack. Don't know how she might behave with cats.

She's not a chewer although an odd sock has gone missing with remnants appearing later in a more digested form. She likes toys but tends to shred the flimsier ones, so hard rubber toys are best. She loves to fetch also. No interest in the swimming pool even when the weather was warmer and one of my other dogs would go in. She is a counter surfer and only thanks to her petite size is unable to get food from the kitchen counter unless it's right at the edge. Dining room table is definitely within her access, though, and she will need some eyes-on supervision until she learns what's off limits.

Piper only barks when appropriate, isn't spooked by loud noises (such as New Year's Eve fireworks), and will happily go into a crate although I haven't needed to crate her for months, other than briefly after her dental surgery.

Like any puppy, she needs training - to reinforce what she already knows (a few basic commands), to add manners and to polish the rough edges that come from too much puppy enthusiasm. She walks okay on a leash with a slip collar, but heeling is still elusive! When she meets new people, she tends to jump up onto them, and we are working on this too.

Piper's got just the right balance of lovey little delicate girl (who lies with paws crossed!) and bouncy beach combing leaping, jumping Labrador! She will become a magnificent adult and would love nothing more than to grow with an equally wonderful family.

Because of the very special dental surgery Piper needed when she came to the Rescue, which was made possible the generous contributions of our supporters and fund-raising partners, she will be participating in a corporate charity event later in February to showcase how those funds saved Piper's life. Her lucky adoptive parents will need to agree to allow Piper to participate in this event under the control and supervision of the Rescue. Details will be made available to potential adopters who are interested in Piper."

Adopted: Luke, a 2 year old Male Yellow Labrador, has found his forever home.

Here is a Bio from his foster family……..


"This handsome boy Luke has stolen our hearts with his sweet kisses and tail wags. He is a curious and playful young Labrador that enjoys the simple things in life like bones and ear scratches. He loves to play with other dogs and does well on a leash. He is full of energy and very active. He has no problem going in his kennel when necessary and has quickly learned to use the dog door to go to the bathroom, we have not had any accidents to date! He has shown great interest in our cats and has enjoyed chasing them as he thinks it’s a fun game. Luke appears to have some difficulty trusting, seems to favor women when bonding, taking time to relax and feel comfortable in a new surrounding. We are confident that with a lot of love and patience he will grow to adore every member of the family."

Adopted: Riley, a 4 year old Yellow Female Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"Riley is a great dog who loves people and would get along great with any family. I love having her around! She is fully house trained, does not jump on people and rarely barks. In fact, I’ve maybe hear her bark once since I’ve had her. She knows some basic commands and is pretty good on the leash. Off leash she is responsive and has pretty good recall. Riley can be very active and adores playing fetch, but she can be comfortable sitting around at home on occasion as well. I don’t have any other pets at home, but at the park, she is cordial with other dogs, but would much rather play with you. She would make a wonderful addition to any family that is active and able to spend time outside with her daily.""

Happy Tail: Jojo (Formerly Josie)

  • Jojo3
  • Jojo2
  • Jojo3
  • Jojo2
  • Jojo1

What a wonderful start to 2018, with an incredible Happy Tail.

"We got Jojo aka Josie in September 2017 - she was approximately ten months old. I know we have only had her almost four months but we cannot imagine our life without her.

Boy - did I forget how much a puppy can change your life! She still forgets that she cannot jump on everyone that walks in the door and her mouthiness is reducing. She is no longer jumping on counters, she had a few accidents in the house during the first two weeks, she quickly learned potty goes outside. She loves her squeaky toys and when she is excited we get squeak serenades. I realized quickly that if she is not exercised then she finds things like pulling tissues out of wastebaskets and collecting our socks from our hamper and carrying them in her mouth is her way of telling us that she needs physical exercise. Although Jojo gets a little mischievous, she is a wonderful dog over all.

She is a chaser! She chases anything that moves and flies such as birds, butterflies, flies, bees, lizards, and rabbits. She loves our yard and thankfully she is not destructive. She likes to carry and moves things around and that is okay. Thankfully she does not have destructive behavior, we do have not had to worry about excessive chewing or digging. We had experienced some rat visits and she successfully has shown us where to focus our attention and because of her help, two rats were captured. We also have a ground squirrel problem so I am sure some day she will be extremely effective in protecting our garden! I just don't know what I will do when she actually catches a bird, squirrel or even a bee? She has trapped a quail but my mom was able to help the quail escape, for the most part I believe the birds just know to stay away when they see her! We have twenty two fruit trees and two garden beds - so I am sure the spring will bring lots of fun for her.

We no longer kennel her at night. She has a bed on my side of the bed. Currently she does not have full reign of the house during the day as we have a grumpy old lady , Gracie, our 15 year old Daschund Terrior mix. Jojo insists that Gracie play with her and Gracie insists that she will not! Because she loves to roll around in dirt (most of our back yard is dirt) so she is not allowed on our couches but she is allowed on two ottomans and an old black recliner. She loves her bear, well it's actually a monkey, but it took me several weeks to realize that it was a monkey and not a bear. She is gentle with her bear monkey and carries it everywhere she goes in the house. She is gentle and is intrigued by babies, gentle with the elderly and knows she can be playful with the kids.

I look forward to my retirement in approximately 10 months to spend more time with my fur baby and future gardening friend. We are in love with her and her puppy antics just make her fun! Thank you to the Las Vegas Labrador Rescue for your hard work!

Sylvia and Mark"

Adopted: Shaye, a 3 year old Black Female Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"n the short time we have had Shaye she has been an absolute joy! She has been very friendly with our two dogs and has shown little interest in our cats. She is energetic and playful and sure to become your next best friend. This girl loves to snuggle and will gladly accept belly rubs at any time. She has done great in the crate but would also be comfortable laying around with you. Shaye rides well in the car, and loves talking walks. She does know how to use the dog door but she must be closely monitored in the backyard as she may have a tendency to find an escape route or jump a fence. Shaye does need some work with her manners, as she's she working on her potty training, jumping on people, and not pulling on the leash, but with a little training, patience, and a whole lot of love she great potential to make a wonderful family member."

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"We've only had Harley for a short time but this is what we know so far: Harley is a gorgeous and confident female lab. She likes to cuddle, explore the yard and appears to like the water going on the step in the pool. She also will stay right at your side following you around the house. She has fit right in with our 4 dogs showing no signs of aggression. She appears to have had little training but is responding well to new commands. She can sit, stay and is currently learning to walk on a leash. She appears to be house broken. She is making great progress as she wants to please. Continuing training is needed for her to live up to her potential. She is crate trained and is basically quiet once in. Overall, Harley is a very loving, affectionate girl who is happy to return all the love and attention you give her. She would be a great addition to an active family."

Adopted: Opie, a 2 year old Male Chocolate Labrador, has found his forever home.

Here is a Bio from his foster family……..


"Opie is one sweet pooch! He loves to cuddle and play and he plays well with all of our other dogs. He learned to use the doggie door in one day and then proceeded to figure out how to use it for going to the bathroom by the next day. He loves to play tug of war both with the other dogs and with us. Opie stays off the furniture in general but he will want to get up on your lap/bed to cuddle. He has learned to walk on a loose leash but he also comes back to you when called when he is off leash. He is a quick learner and doesn't have any bad habits that we can detect. Opie will do very well with a family who wants a friendly, energetic and fun dog. He is super affectionate and loving, a little snuggle bug.
Opie is very energetic and will need regular exercise and play. He will get into a kennel in the car easily but so far, he has not been a fan of riding in a car. He doesn't get sit but he is a bit vocal. We think he will overcome this as he gets more used to traveling. Opie is very affectionate and will need lots of love and hugs."

Adopted: Remi, a 6 year old Female Chocolate Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"Remi is a sweetheart of a dog who is charming and very lovable. She is a quick learner who has learned how to use the dog door and walk on a leash without pulling. She knows the basic commands, comes when called, sits before leaving the kennel, and responds well to voice commands. We don’t know if she is good with cats because our cat is shy around strangers, four and two legged ones. When Remi sees our cat she chases her, but has never been aggressive in any manner. Remi has only been with us for one day but she is perfectly comfortable around our dogs and in our home. She hasn’t even shown any trepidation around strange dogs on our walks. Remi is a joyous and loving girl and will make a wonderful addition to a very lucky family."

  • Remme-17
  • Remme-18
  • Remme-27

Adopted: Remme, a 1 year old Female Yellow Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"Remme has not been with us long, but we can see such potential in this beautiful girl. Like most 1 year old Labs, Remme has a lot of energy, happiest when chasing a ball or swimming. She already knows a few commands, like sit, heel, down, but is easily distracted. She does well in a kennel, is calm on a car ride, and seems to be house-trained. Remme is very affectionate and adores belly rubs! Her coloring is unique, with a gorgeous fox red coat, darker than most yellow Labs. As she's still in her puppy stage, she's also mouthy, is learning boundaries with other dogs, and needs to work on her people manners. As Remme is becoming more comfortable here, she is blossoming into a wonderful, loving Labrador.
Remme would thrive with an active family, one that will give her the time, structure and boundaries for her to mature into the Lab she's meant to be. She will make an awesome furry family member to the right family that is willing to show her love, patience and security. She has a high drive, and would make an excellent running partner. Families with young children should strongly consider the work and patience a Lab like Remme needs before requesting a meeting.
We have high hopes for Remme, she's a gorgeous, loving Lab."

We are always so thrilled to receive Happy Tails on LVLR alumni. This Happy Tail is among one of the funniest, most loving we've ever read!

"Nine months ago, we got a Bo. He was a high strung wild guy, that clearly never really had a place to call home. We hoped to change that. At first, the odds were stacked against us. Not only did we get a Bo, we also got a Stealer of Sandwiches, a Chewer of Shoes, an Escaper of Houses, a Jumper of Walls, a Barker at Randomness, a Surfer of Counters, a Lunger at TVs, and a Whiner of Early Mornings. BUT after time, love, patience, more patience, a bit more patience, and LOTS of walks, I’m thrilled to announce we have also have Learner of Manners, a Sleeper of Couches, a Protector of Houses, a Lover of Walks, a Snuggler of Closeness, a Player of Friends, a Master of Games, a Maker of Smiles, and a Stealer of Hearts. Most importantly though, he’s become a Knower of Home and finally knows where he belongs…right here…with us. Welcome home, Bo. We love you!"

"Josie is a very energetic little girl as most puppies are. She loves to be around people and follows me all over the house. Josie loves to play. She pulls all the toys out of the toy box. She gets along great with other dogs. She really don’t like going in the kennel but once she is in there for a short time she calms down and goes to sleep. She should be kenneled when home alone as she gets into things. We are working on potty training. Josie loves going for walks and is pretty good on the leash. She also loves going for rides in the car, getting on the couch and sleeping in the bed with me. Overall, Josie is a good dog and will make a great companion for someone who is willing to train her. She is very special and will make a fantastic addition to any family.

"Luna is a wonderful, sweet little girl. She's happy, playful, with typical puppy energy. Luna is doing great with her house training, and sleeps through the night in her crate. While she doesn't like the crate during the day, we are working with her to feel comfortable being left alone it in. As a puppy, she will need a family committed to continuing her training, teaching her boundaries and expectations. Luna is very smart, learns quickly and wants to please you. She rides well in the car, does great with other dogs, but can be a little timid in new surroundings. Once she feels comfortable, she's a little bundle of Labrdorable love. If you have small children, under 10, in the home, please carefully consider before requesting a meeting with Luna and make sure a puppy is a good fit for your home." Luna is so wonderful, loving and affectionate, and with the right family dedicated to training her through her puppy months, she will be an incredible companion."

We received a beautiful Happy Tail on LVLR alumni, Cali.

"Hello,

We adopted Cali, a black lab, through your rescue group one year ago and it's been a wonderful year with her! She is so loving and loved by us. She enjoys her daily walks, her daily trips to the mailbox, her belly rubs, rides in our kayak, chasing the black birds in our back yard (never comes close but it gives her some excitement!), snoozing on our bed (when allowed), and just hanging out being a perfect companion. Thank you for bringing her into our lives!

We received another wonderful, amazing Happy Tail from double adopters!

"Our family has been more than blessed by the wonderful Las Vegas Lab Rescue. People ask if we rescued or adopted our beautiful furbabies, Cypress and Aspen. We believe we were rescued by them. March 2013 Cypress and May 2017 Aspen joined our family. They have become wonderful playmates, best friends and sisters. They both love to go for rides in daddy's truck, when he grabs the keys they bounce around with excitement. Their favorite place to go is to our Ranch in Utah where they enjoy chasing balls and lizards or swimming in the pond. At night they like to take over the bed or sleep right on top of us but we wouldn't have it any other way. Thanks to all the volunteers at Las Vegas Lab Rescue for all your hard work, commitment to finding furever homes for all the beautiful Labradors that are so fortunate to find their way to your organization.

He is very special and will make a fantastic addition to any active family that has time to help him manage all the energy he has. "

  • Welby-2
  • Welby-17
  • Welby-26
  • Welby-27
  • Welby-29
  • Welby-37

Adopted: Welby, a 4 year old Male Yellow Labrador, has found his forever home.

Here is a Bio from foster family……..


"Welby has been a joy to look after. He gets along well with my two other Labs, he swims, loves to play with toys, swims, retrieves tennis balls, and did I mention he swims? He stands still and enjoys being dried with a towel (he likes the massage!), but is not beyond coming in soaking wet and waiting to shake until he gets near a lot of furniture!

He knows some commands (Sit, No and Stay) and we're working on others. A quick learner, he is smart and wants to please. Welby eats like a gentleman and is very soft when he takes a treat from my hand. Not a chewer or a counter-surfer. He will go into his crate and settle down nicely but likes a treat or toy tossed in first as an incentive. He uses the dog door although after living outdoors before coming to us, he sometimes needs a little reminder about going outside to lift his leg. This gets better every day. He's also very good in the car.

The best thing about Welby is his personality. He has all the happy-go-lucky traits of most Labs, but he seems somehow wise. Like he knows the few scratches and scrapes he carries just add character. My guess is that he's had a couple of walks on the wild side in his past. Now, he is definitely looking for a good loving relationship where he can just snuggle alot and hang out and ponder the universe together with his new people pack. Maybe that's you! "

Happy Tail: Kiera and Kona (formerly Toby)

  • ymail-tmp-1112422061

What a wonderful Happy Tail from a family that has adopted 2 from LVLR.

"We couldn't be happier with our 2 LVLR adoptees. We adopted Kona (LVLR name Toby) in December 2013. He truly rescued us as much as we rescued him. He has been all over the West with us camping, fishing, and hiking. His new and older sister, Kiera, has been with us about 5 weeks and is fitting in wonderfully. She is sassy, smart, and not afraid to ask for attention. They love their daily walks and, of course, the post-walk snack. She is the perfect addition to our pack and we feel so lucky to have them in our family. ❤❤❤"

We received another fantastic Happy Tail, meet Tony!

"Tony joined our family in January 2012, and he has brought so much love and happiness to our lives. Tony is our trusty side kick, and he joins us on all kinds of adventures. We moved from Nevada in 2013, and he since has lived in Chicago, Nashville, and Dallas; and he has been on countless multi-state road trips. Tony didn't much care for the cold weather and snow in Chicago, but he enjoys living in Texas! Tony enjoys playing with his best friend Jake, spending time with his family, going to daycare, playing ball, swimming, and most of all...eating! Dinner time always calls for a celebration at our house! When we adopted Tony, so many people said that he was such a lucky dog, but in actuality, we are the lucky ones."

What a wonderful Happy Tail we received for LVLR alumni Molly!

"It has been almost one year since Molly joined our family. We can't decide who's happier, Molly or us. Every day of Molly's life is filled with daily walks, lots of pool time, which she adores, and more toys than she could ever dream of. Molly has a furry sister named Whitey (for Whitey Ford) and four humans that she loves. Molly may not have had the best start at life, but she is so happy to be part of a loving family. We've had Labs in the past, but Molly is our first rescue. Rescuing is definitely the way to go! Molly is a true "Happy Tail" and is grateful every day for her second chance. Thank you Las Vegas Lab Rescue for all you do! We love our Molly!"

Adopted: Kenya, a 3 1/2 year old Female Chocolate Labrador

  • Kenya-2
  • Kenya-7
  • Kenya-9
  • Kenya-11
  • Kenya-15

Adopted: Kenya, a 3.5 year old Female Chocolate Labrador, has found her forever home.

Here is a Bio from her foster family……..


"Kenya is a sweet and very happy dog with lots of energy and enthusiasm. She knows her basic commands and is generally pretty responsive to a strong “No” when doing something she is not supposed to. Kenya is fully house trained and has seemed to quickly adapt to a routine and rules for her new surroundings. She does pull on the leash on walks, but is already improving. When Kenya gets really excited (usually around new people), she does tend to lose some manners and jump. She likes other dogs and is friendly, but in my experience with her at the dog park, she will give a few growls if she feels threatened. She loves all people and always wants to be involved in whatever you are doing. She follows me around the house and will always want to be in the same room with me. Like most Labs, she loves to eat and came to me with a few extra pounds, but with a consistent diet and regular exercise, she should be just fine.
Kenya would thrive in a loving and active family where she can be a part of the day to day activities of the household. I can’t speak to how she would be with other pets in the house, but I don’t anticipate an issue. Kenya is a beautiful dog who deserves to be part of a great forever family!
Kenya has had hip and ACL surgery, for which she has fully recovered, and while she isn't suited to be a running or hiking partner, she is active and healthy. Kenya does have allergies, which is being managed with medication.
Kenya will make a great addition to any family looking for a new companion."
