Lab Rescue of Greater Richmond is a non-profit, all volunteer organization serving Richmond, Virginia and nearby counties.
We rescue Labrador Retrievers and provide them with foster homes and veterinary care until they can be adopted into new, loving homes. Each one of our Labs is housed in a foster home, instead of in a kennel.
We feel this is the best way to get to know the Labs we rescue. We are not affiliated with any other Lab Rescue.
Please keep in mind that there are many purebred Labs available in your local shelters so please visit them as well!

Featured Lab
Tessie (#09-028)
Coming to us at the young age of 10 years, Miss Tessie is smiling on the world. She rides great in the car, and stands at the door waiting for another excursion. This sweetheart walks well on lead, is up to date on shots, spayed, and ready for her new home. Tessie gets along well with other dogs, and her foster sister insists on cleaning her face for her! She doesn't mind a bit. At 65 lbs, she is a smaller lab, but her love is not. She will stay close to you the minute you decide rubbing her is the thing to do. Although she is ten years old, she is fit and healthy. Tessie just wants her forever home to love her, care for her, and give her a comfy bed to lie on. Can you offer this to her? Complete an application and a volunteer will contact you.

All other aspects of applying and approval are required. We encourage you to open your home to a senior lab who would love to walk with you, be a companion for you, and in return, be loved and cared for.
