About Lab Rescue

Lab Rescue

Under the umbrella of The Labrador Club, some of our members do their best to help abandoned and unwanted pure bred Labradors. The Rescue scheme is mainly intended for dogs impounded by the authorities and not claimed, and for those whose owners die or become physically unable to look after their dogs any more. We do however also have owners asking us to find new homes for their Labradors because they are just not coping. Perhaps they did not give enough thought to the commitment of owning a dog or perhaps the breeder did not research the potential owner thoroughly.

Whatever the reason the rescue team does its best to find a new home for these Labradors and this is a very worrying job because the second home must be the last home. Please note that this scheme is for pure bred Labradors only as that is the focus of the club. We are not able to extend this scheme to include labrador crosses.

There is a certain amount of expense involved in running Labrador Rescue such as vaccinations, castrations or speying, injuries that may have been incurred, kennelling, and advertising for new homes. We do ask new owners for a donation and, human nature being what it is, it is often said that “folk value what they pay for”. We also often need a temporary home until a suitable new owner can be found.

So if you are able to help Labrador Rescue in any way, please don’t hesitate to contact us!
