One of the hardest things in the world to look at is a Labrador Retriever that is in pain from having been abused. You automatically want to help the dog—or dogs—no matter what, just as anyone would.
Learn how you can help and read up on the breed; knowledge will help you in a number of ways. First, you will find out that there is so much to love about the lab in the first place. Discovering more information about lab rescues will be something that you will find very satisfying, and there is quite a bit of information on rescue of not only this special breed, but just about every other breed out there. Quite often it is up to the Humane Society or local animal cruelty prevention society to take care of rescuing animals of all types from abusive owners. That is not always the case, though.
Other rescue groups do exist in a number of areas specifically for the purpose of Labrador rescue. On our website, you’ll find a list of several different websites—some are very localized, others are national. One is even a Canadian website.
Helping Labrador Retrievers find safe homes after they have not been well-treated is something that is not always an easy thing to do. These dogs will quite often need lots of patience and loving care after what they have gone through, and you and your dog may need to learn some new coping skills.
Typically, Lab rescue will yield a dog, or dogs, that have been malnourished and mistreated in any number of ways by the owners. The websites that are listed on our sites are no-kill shelters, and will work to find homes for these beautiful animals that will suit them.
All animals, especially Labs, are loving—and these particular dogs can
provide all sorts of other things for the owners. Protection, fun, and a general sense of well-being can be had because of playing with this wonderful breed. Whether it’s mixed or full-bred, they’re wonderful and are great with kids and adults alike.
i’d have them all if i could.
