AVAILABLE DOGS
UPDATED: MARCH 12, 2010.
**Remember to click your "Refresh" or "Reload" button on your browser to see the latest updates**
Our listings of available Labs are broken into two categories: rescue dogs and owner placements. Both kinds of available dogs are in need of a home but the method in which the dog is placed is different depending on the category. Please read more information about the difference between rescue dogs and owner placements.
PLEASE NOTE WE DO NOT ACCEPT LISTING APPLICATIONS NOR REHOME DOGS WITH A HISTORY OF AGRESSION.IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING A LABRADOR RETRIEVER, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU COMPLETE AN ADOPTION APPLICATION TO START THE ADOPTION PROCESS. NO ADOPTIONS WILL BE CONSIDERED WITHOUT THIS. PLEASE NOTE WE DO NOT ACCEPT LONG DISTANCE LISTING APPLICATIONS OR ADOPTION APPLICATIONS.Whether a Lab is a rescue or owner placement, Calgary Purebred Labrador Retriever Rescue requires that it be spayed or neutered and its vaccinations be current prior to adoption. We try to carefully screen new adoptive homes and require home visits irregardless of whether a dog is a rescue or owner placement. Be sure you understand all our requirements (for example, a fenced in yard), so that you aren't disappointed if your adoption application is turned down. We charge a minimum adoption fee and also ask that our veterinary and transportation costs are covered. These funds are used to rescue other dogs and are usually a fraction of the cost of a Labrador Retriever puppy. The average age of the dogs we help to place is 2 to 5 years old but occasionally we get younger dogs too.
Note:
GWK = Good with Kids
GWD = Good with Dogs
GWC = Good with Cats
GWLS = Good with Livestock
