Bristol adopted!

Awe what a sweetie!  Meet Bristol, an adorable purebred Labrador female who is so darling and lovely that she is just pure joy to have around.

This pretty girl is a golden yellow color and a nice medium size.  Bristol came to us from a local shelter.  She was actually one of over 150 dogs that had been found at an abandoned home of what used to be a hoarder.  Bristol seems to have left her past behind her and couldn't be happier to be in foster and on her way to a new forever home!

Bristol is about 6 years old. She is calm and mellow and a lovely houseguest. She likes to be near her person and loves other dogs She is completely enjoying her foster home where she is fostered with another female Labrador. She gets on beautifully with her and with all other dogs she meets both big and small!  Bristol is not that playful with other dogs, but is great with them all.

Bristol is completely housebroken and has nice house manners. She settles well in the home.  She does attempt to get on the furniture, but quickly gets off when she is corrected or even sees her foster mom coming her way - she is a smart girl.

Bristol is food motivated like most labs, but she takes her treats very gently.  She is not jumpy either.  She knows her sit command and we believe she will quickly learn more commands with just a little training from her forever family.  

Bristol is a low to medium energy girl who would be happy with 1-2 walks a day or even a trip to dog park for some socialization.  She is very happy just following you around the house during the day and would even be a great dog to take to work with you if you are so lucky.
 
Bristol would do well as your one and only or with another doggie companion.  If she is an only dog, we prefer she not be left alone all day every day - she deserves lots of love and attention from her family.
 
Bristol would likely do well with kids as she is calm and easy. But keep in mind any Lab can knock a child over especially when they get excited.

Bristol is spayed and up to date on vaccines. All that's needed now is the very best home!

Jett Boy adopted!

Presenting Jett, a gorgeous purebred chocolate male Labrador of just over 1 year old. Jett is a deep dark chocolate with a beautiful coat and a nice temperament to match. He is really a beautiful purebred Labrador.

This puppy man is still a youngster at only 1 year old.  He is a good size for a male Lab at about 85 pounds.  He has a friendly happy disposition and really loves to play and play, and walk and especially loves the water.

Jett could do with some training - typical for a young Labrador. He has a tendency to jump when he is excited and he will pull on a leash as he loves to get going on his walk. These are easy fixes through routine and reminders. A nice obedience class would be perfect for him after he is settled into his new home.

Jett came to us from his owners who could no longer keep him.  They purchased him from a nice breeder, and soon realized their son was allergic to dogs.  They tried many things to make it work, but ultimately Jett was stuck in the backyard with little interaction with his family.  They knew they wanted better for Jett and their son just could not handle having him in the home.  Along came Indilab and Jett joined our extended family!

This extremely healthy, young Labrador will need lots of daily exercise. He should do a good jog or long walk everyday and would love hikes or trips to dog park to play with other dogs. He is perfect for an active family or as a companion to another young playful dog.  He loves to play fetch and even enjoys chasing his own soccer ball around the yard - so cute to see!  Of course his skills of returning the ball or toy to you still need to be worked on, but he just has such a good time and would learn quickly with some training.

Jett settles beautifully in the house or yard once he has had his exercise. But remember, at 1 year old he is really just beginning to be an adult since Labs are puppies for 2 full years - so he cannot be expected to settle nicely without his exercise first!

Jett is a real show stopper in the looks department. He really is the kind of dog everyone comments on. What a gorgeous well bred Lab he is.
 
Jett is completely housebroken and non-destructive when left in the yard all alone.  He hasn't been left inside the home much on his own so we aren't sure how well he would do left alone in the home all day.

Jett is great with all other dogs and would do well as your one and only or as a doggie companion.  He is a playful young boy, so he would likely do best with another playful dog.

Jett is good with kids, but because he is young and active, he will be too much for toddlers. He is a large breed dog who does get jumpy when excited and could easily knock children down, so kids over age 6 are best for him.

He will do his best with a family committed to exercise with their Lab every day and where someone loves a happy go lucky, playful, loving dog who loves to be by your side, but is also content to hang out in the yard to rest on his own.

Jett loves his toys and would love a home where he has doggie bones, toys and balls to play with a lot.  

This is a very happy Lab adolescent. With a good committed home he will grow up into a wonderful adult. Though he is active now, his temperament suggests he will be a calmer boy in the next year or so as he matures.

We do not know how Jett would do with kitties so we will not consider him for homes with cats at this time.

Jett is healthy, neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Blu adopted!

Meet Blu, a handsome 3 year old yellow male Labrador. He is a golden yellow color and is about 85 lbs with a giant blocky head to die for. And the most unique quality about him is his tongue which is almost completely blue in color - hence his name!

Blu has the softest, beautiful yellow coat that you just love to pet and cuddle with!  And oh does this boy love his belly rubs too!

This easy going boy is amazing with other dogs and loves all people. He is a young boy at age 3 so does need his daily exercise of course, but he settles nicely in the house.

Blu came to us from a high kill Los Angeles County shelter where he was in immediate danger. Of course the moment we met him, we knew he was coming home with us! Isn't it amazing the most wonderful dogs end up in our shelters? We are continuously surprised by these most deserving dogs who just need a little help to find homes.

Blu is a sweet boy who walks nicely on the leash with a few reminders along the way. He can pull a little bit, but is getting better and better on leash. Before long he will be perfection. He really loves his walks and enjoys walking with his foster brother too.  Blu gets along beautifully with is foster brother a 7 year old male Lab and all other dogs at dog park too. Blu would likely do well as your one and only or with a friendly dog companion.
 
Blu is a little on the chunky side and could lose 5 pounds or so, but with daily exercise and limiting his treats, he will be at his ideal wait in no time!

Blu enjoys playing fetch and really enjoys his toys at home!  He especially loves the soft stuffed toys and plastic water bottles to play with in his foster home, so lots of fun toys for this boy to play with will make his new home perfect!
 
Blu is completely housebroken, responds well to basic commands such as sit and come.  In fact, he is really good at coming when called at the dog park - he listens well and really wants to please his person!

We think he will do nicely with children, but he is jumpy when excited, so could easily knock young children down. He is learning not to jump with reminders from his foster dad.  We will consider children over the age of 5 on a case by case basis.

We don't know how Blu will do with kitties so we prefer not to place him with them.

Blu would love a home where he will get daily exercise like walks, perhaps a hike, trip to dog park and of course some playtime for fetch in the yard!

Blu sleeps soundly through the night and settles well in the home after he has had his exercise.  He will be a great addition to almost any family!

Blu is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Ellsworth adopted!

Here's Ellsworth! He's a handsome, happy, sweetie-pie, a lovely light cream colored yellow male Labrador with a gentle soul!   Ellsworth is approximately 6 years old,  and is as mellow and calm as they come - the perfect gentleman!

Ellsworth was found at a high kill shelter, how this total love ended up there we  don't know, but one of our volunteers got him out of there and ushered him to freedom!  He has been loving life in his foster home, and this cutie only deserves
the best from here on out.

Ellsworth is fabulous with all the kids, adults, and animals he meets, he loves all people!  He enjoys very much having animal companions to hang out with - he is fostered with two large doggie siblings  -a male and a female - and he also is fostered with two kitties and is perfect with them, respecting their boundaries and spaces.  So Ellsworth is a great choice for a family with cats!

Ellsworth loves to go for walks with his foster family and dog friends, and walks perfectly on a leash by your side, with no pulling whatsoever.  He just happily trots along enjoying the sights and  smells as they go by. He also loves to ride in the car, and is often the first one to eagerly jump up onto the seat. Let's go!!

Ellsworth is completely housebroken, and sleeps perfectly through the night, on a dog bed in the bedroom with his foster family.
He will follow his foster mom, dad or human sister about the house, keeping an eye on them, happy to lay by their feet while they watch a movie or read a book.  And even though he has not shown interest in balls or toys, Ellsworth does occasionally try to get one of his doggy siblings to play with him in the yard.  It's so cute to see!

We cannot say enough about Ellsworth's great all around disposition - and we can't stop giving him head rubs and belly rubs because he loves them so.

Like most typical labs, Ellsworth also loves his food, and eats nicely near his foster siblings, twice a day.   He knows the word  'sit' and he takes treats so gently. He certainly can learn more, as he has shown his foster family that he is a smart boy!
He would love a good daily walk, or two, then he is comfortable to hang out with his person, or sleep if they are gone for a little while.

Ellsworth is neutered, up to date on his vaccines, and microchipped.

Chippy 2 adopted!

Meet Chippy!  What a beautiful, gentle soul.  This female yellow English lab is about 9-10 years old and she is as sweet as they come!  She is happy, wiggly, mellow, easy and loving - labbie perfection! Look at her! She's absolutely beautiful and her temperament is even better.
 
Poor Chippy was left at a high kill shelter where she had no hope of being adopted.  Our volunteer saw her, and as soon as she met her, knew that she did not belong on a cold shelter floor and off she came to join our IndiLab family!

Chippy had a full senior workup at our vet including blood work, xrays and more.  Great news - the vet has given her a clean bill of health!  In fact her bloodwork is so good, we think she could even be a younger dog!

Chippy is a lovely, mature, easy going, low maintenance girl!  She gets along fabulously with all other dogs and enjoys the 2 male Labs she is fostered with.  She can even be seen trying to play with them on occasion.  She likes doggie toys and bones, but is not obsessive about them at all.  It's adorable to see her get excited to chew on a dog bone or carry around a soft squeaky toy!
 
Chippy is very gentle around the home and with all the people she meets!  There isn't a dog or person she meets that she doesn't like.  She has the trademark Lab smile and happiness all the time.  She can be found wiggling and wagging her tail with happiness wherever she goes.  She walks well on leash and is an easy girl to walk!  She will walk right next to you and never pull.
 
Chippy is a mellow, easy going girl.  She is a low energy girl that would be happy with one to two walks a day and may even enjoy a dip in your pool if you have one.    Even if you happen to skip a day of walking, this girl will be just fine - she is an easy, low maintenance girl.  She would do well as your one and only dog or with another doggie companion.  She is happy to have the company of her person or another dog.
 
Chippy is almost housebroken, but may need a few reminders in her new home as she gets used to your routine.  She is non-destructive when left and she sleeps soundly through the night on a doggie bed in her foster parent's bedroom.
 
Chippy is healthy, spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and has perfect blood work too!

Barlow adopted!

Meet Barlow, a stunning red fox male Labrador Retriever. He has a beautiful deep red coat and he is about 75 pounds. He has a lovely comformation with a big blocky head and otter tail. And did we mention his beautiful eyes? Best of all, this dolly's big tail is always wagging.

Barlow came to us from a high kill shelter where he was brought in as a stray. The shelter is a scary place for dogs, so we just couldn’t say no to this handsome guy. He is estimated to be between 3-5 years old and he has an absolutely lovely temperament. What a nice, nice boy he is!

Barlow loved the car ride to his new foster home so we think he's a good car buddy. He has been very well behaved in his foster home and seems to be just a very goo boy. Barlow will make a wonderful companion for someone or a family. He wants to please his people in true Labby fashion.

This darling is very affectionate and playful but he does know how to relax and be calm inside the house. He's the nicest mix of fun and easy.

Barlow is non-destructive and stays out of mischief because he likes to keep himself occupied with his toys. He often carries a tennis ball around in his mouth and occasionally falls asleep on it. It's just adorable. He also love to swim and loves to fetch his tennis ball out of the pool.

This pup loves going for walks, but would love to be in charge, so it’s important to show him that you are in control. He is extremely smart and he learns quickly, so he has already made progress during leash training.  He has also learned “sit”, “stay” and “down”. He seems to do well on short jogs. He's a good boy with other dogs and is nice when passing them.

Barlow would do best in a home that provides him time to exercise and limits food indulgences. This will keep him from getting chubby.

He loves to be by your side and will nuzzle you to tell you that he wants you to pet him. He loves to snuggle, and will even try to snuggle with you in bed or on the couch. However, he listens well when you tell him to get down.

He seems to be good with other people and medium to large dogs, but he hasn’t had much interaction with small dogs and kitties yet. This love-bug will make a great pet and best friend.

Barlow is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.

Haven adopted!

Meet Haven, a darling teddy bear of a purebred Golden Retriever. This angel is so darn cute and such a sweet boy. Haven is 8 years old and medium sized.

This fella is as calm and mellow as they come. He's wonderful with all humans, dogs, and even kitties and he is a wonderful companion. In fact he is so gentle, the declawed kitty he is fostered with is not even phased by this dopey doggie laying next to him!

Meeting happy Haven you might never suspect that he came to us from a high kill shelter where his life was in danger. Yet there he was and luckily so were we. Upon meeting this perfect dog, we knew we had to take him home with us!

Even though we cannot understand how Haven ended up in the shelter, we can tell that at some point he was loved because he knows all of his basic commands and has had training. He is 100% potty trained too. He's even wonderful on the leash.

This mellow angel is a very good in the house. He is non-destructive. And he is wonderful with little children. He is currently fostered with a 5 and an 8 year old and does beautifully with them. Haven is wonderful for kids.

Haven has been neglected for a bit it seems. He has clearly been on low-cost food and we can see from his current ear infection for which he is being treated, that he should be on a grain free diet. Also Haven is recovering from a hot spot which is also a result of bad food. His new owners will want to feed him quality food so he can be his best.

Haven has a touch of arthritis common in retrieving breeds his age. He should be given glucosamine supplements and daily low impact exercise each day to keep him flexible and healthy. It' also important to keep him at his healthy weight.

Haven's new family will want to give his ears and hot spot a little time to heal and although we have professionally groomed him, his new owner should have him well groomed again in a couple of weeks to help get him on his way to looking his very best.

Overall Haven is the perfect example of the love and happiness Golden Retrievers bring and he is perfect for almost any family! He'll do well with little children and cats, elderly folks, young couples, and really just about any family dynamic will suit him.

Haven is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. He is being treated for an ear infection.

All he needs now is the very best home to treasure him as he has always deserved!

Sampson 2 adopted!

Introducing Samson. Samson is a 3-year-old Chocolate purebred male Labrador. He has a soft thick coat and fat otter tail.  This boy is handsome, friendly, and enthusiastic and an aweful lot of fun to be with. We sure love this fella.

Samson came to us from a Los Angeles County high kill shelter where his previous owners dumped him because they didn’t have time for him any more. How sad for this loyal and very well behaved kid. Lucky for Samson and us our volunteer spotted him straight away. A dog like this should never end up in a shelter. This is a best buddy kind of dog who will make a lucky person or family very happy.

Samson is fantastic on a walk. He stays right by your side with no pulling. It is really enjoyable to walk with this boy!  He knows his commands of "sit" and "down" and is currently working on "stay".  He is highly food motivated and eager to please making him easy to train. We think you could train Sampson to do most anything - even therapy work.

Samson is a medium energy Labrador. who will need his daily exercise. A long walk or a trip to Dog Park would be nice. Since he is so good with other dogs the park and beach will be lots of fun for him and his new owner.  For a young Lab he is a pretty easy going mellow dude.

Sampson is completely house broken and has the nicest indoor house manners. He's a very good boy in the house and non-destructive.  He is also beautifully crate trained and finds his own way into his crate each night all on his own.

Sampson can be mouthy when playing and will even jump up once in while. After all he is just past puppyhood at age 3. Children over 8 would be best for this boy. We do't know how he would do with cats so famiies with cats will not be considered at this time.

Samson loves everyone. He wants to be with his people and will follow you around the house and will rest at your feet. He also loves canine company. He and his foster brother, another young Labrado, play chase, tug and fetch everyday.  Samson is great at sharing dog toys, balls and bones. He is such a good boy. Another friendly canine would be a lot of fun for him.

Sampson is neutered, up to date on his vaccines and micochipped. All he needs now is the very best home!

Gellen adopted!

Meet Gellen, a beautiful cream Labrador Retriever. This purebred male is approximately 3-4 years old and is an American Field Labrador with a beautiful head and graceful stance.

Gellen is the littermate brother of Gage, another dog available for adoption on this page. Similar to Gage, Gellen is a very nice, easy going dog who loves all humans and all dogs. He's great with small dogs too, and is wonderful with children.

Gellen is a submissive boy and has shown submission to the smallest senior dog. He is still learning doggie socialization skills so might make a mistake now and then, but other dogs seem to like him very much.

Gellen was turned into a high kill county shelter with his brother when his owner decided he didn't want dogs anymore. When we met the boys, we didn't hesitate to pull them to safety and get them to the vet and to their foster homes right away.

These boys will do fine adopted together or apart so long as each goes with another friendly canine companion. They will do beautifully with older children over age 5 and would love a home where someone will toss the ball for them!

Gellen is wonderful on leash and learning not to pull. He passes other dogs nicely. He is learning his commands and he is learning to ride in the car too.

Gellen will make a wonderful family dog or a best buddy for a single person. Either way this guy is truly wonderful.

This guy would love other dogs to play with and trips to dog beach or dog park. He just loves other dogs and this will go a long way to keeping him happy and well exercised. He is by no means a hyper dog and is quite easy going and mellow. But he is young and will need his daily walks and play time.

Gellen is cat curious and will bark at and chase cats. We don't think he would ever hurt a cat however we will not place him in a home with kitties at this time. Please dont' ask if you have cats.

Clipper Girl adopted!

Meet Clipper.  Clipper is an AKC registered purebred English female Labrador retriever. She is 2 years old.  Clipper is darling with a blockhead, round cat like paws and a fat otter tail. Clippers coat is thick and silky soft.    

This sweet and somewhat timid girl came to us when her second owner could no longer care for her. Her fist owner was a breeder who gave her away after her littler of puppies were too short to sell at top dollar.  Poor Clipper has spent a lot of time in a crate. Her owner found us and we promised to find her the best furever home, a home where she will be part of the family’s everyday activities.
 
Begin indoors is new to Clipper, but this young girl really wants to be with her people.  She is house broken and has not had even one accident in her foster home.
She is a nondestructive in the house.  She is a little timid indoors opting to stay in the family room and not venture in to the bedrooms.  Her confidence will grow as her new families encourages her to feel comfortable indoors.  

Clipper will play fetch and loves her walks.  She does pull on the leash, but remember daily walks were not part of her life before now. She gets so excited to walk she jumps and wiggles.  Her new family will have a fantastic dog with just a little training and routine. She already knows “sit” and “down”.   

Clipper is a really good girl in the car.  She will hop right in, lay down, and enjoy the ride. She would love to accompany you on errands, and if the dog park happens to be on this list all the better.  

Clipper is good with other dogs.  She has always had canine companions. She will do fine as your one only if someone is home most days. She has already spent too much of her life in alone in crate.  She deserves a family who will spoiler her a little.

Clipper is mouthy and for this reason will only be considered with children over 7.  

She is not possessive and you can easily take things from her, but when playing is not aware of her mouthiness. This is common with young Labradors and her new owners just need be aware.
 
Clipper has not been cat tested so no kitties at this time for her.

This little girl is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. She is ready for her forever family! Will it be you?

Fergie adopted!

Meet Fergie, a lovely purebred Yellow Female Labrador of about 4 years old that is almost PERFECTION!   Fergie is about 80 pounds and has the trademark lab wiggle & tail wag!  She is a very loving girl who loves to give kisses and get belly rubs!  This is a beautiful purebred Labrador who has outstanding temperament - loves all people and all dogs and makes friends everywhere she goes.
 
We rescued Fergie from one of the highest kill shelters in California.  As soon as we saw this beautiful girl, we knew she was coming home with us!  She is not just a gorgeous girl, but she has a lovely temperament!  She is a medium energy girl that settles really well in the house.  She is not mouthy or jumpy at all, so she would do very well with a family with kids!

Fergie is a playful girl and loves other dogs.  She makes friends with all the dogs she meets, both big & small.  She is really enjoying her trips to the beach where she meets other dogs and also enjoys her trips to dog park where she makes lots of friends.

Fergie will need daily exercise. But after her exercise she settles well in the house and naps at your feet.  She would do great in a home with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only.  She would love trips to dog park, regular walks and play dates with other dogs.  She is non destructive when left at home.  But if you are gone at work all day, she would need a midday dog walk - which is true of almost all younger Labs.
 
Fergie walks very well on leash - rarely pulling!  She settles into a walk by your side where she constantly checks on your pace to walk with you.  What a good girl!

Fergie is as adorable and sweet as a Lab can be!  Her foster is really enjoying having her around and she gets along great with her foster labbie sister.  She even knows her commands of sit and down and wants to please, so additional training with her would be easy!
 
We believe Fergie is housebroken - she has only had one potty accident in her foster home - but has been great otherwise.  Of course every dog should be watched at first in their new home as you show them their new potty area and they learn their new potty routine.

Fergie is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and spayed.

Camomile adopted!

Meet Chamomile, or as her foster mom calls her "Cammie".  Cammie is a darling purebred yellow Labrador.  She is about 2 years old and sweet as can be.

Chamomile has a super thick honey yellow coat that fades to lighter shade of cream on her belly.  She has the warmest eyes and innocent face.  She is currently just a tad chubby but looks so darn adorable. Since Labbies do best underweight no matter how cute they look chubby, her new family will want to give good food and exercise to keep her a little thinner. 

Cammie is a medium energy girl.  She gets wiggly and excited and wags her tail when you pull out a leash.  What a smile she has! She walks nicely too. She may pull at the very start of your walk and quickly slows to match your pace like a perfect dog.

With her exercise in the morning, she is calm all day. Then in the afternoon, she loves to play a ball or go for another walk, so she can hang out with you in the house for the evening. She is so calm and quiet in the house; you almost won’t know she’s there.

Cammie is shy and has a timid nature.  She comes around pretty quickly with a gentle hand.  She is great with other large dogs and enjoys playing with her foster brother a Labrador puppy that is a year old.  In fact she would love another dog in her forever home.  

Cammie is 100% house broken.  She is nondestructive inside and does not climb up on furniture.  She will sleep on her dog bed the whole night thru.

As for water, we have not seen Cammie at the beach or a pool so we don't know.  She doesn't love the bath and runs from the garden hose. Our guess is no one every gave her a bath before. Her new family will have to take her to the dog beach to see what she thinks. Most Labs love to go to the beach and swim and if they don't swim, they usually enjoy running around retrieving and getting their feet wet in the surf.

Cammie has a shy and sensitive personality and is a little skittish around children. She will do best in a calm home, with a family that will encourage her and help build her confidence.  No children for this girl. She would not hurt a child, but we would like to see her acclimate to her new home without having to endure children and their antics.

She has not been cat tested so no kitties at this time for cammie.

Cammie spayed, up to date on shots, and current on flea control. She's a beautiful girl who needs a wonderful fur-ever home!

Gage 2 adopted!

Meet Gage 2, a beautiful yellow, purebred,  male Labrador Retriever. Gage is a light cream color and is a field Lab meaning he is taller and lankier. He is a gorgeous dog!

At 3-4 years old, Gage is a pretty mellow boy. He's very good in the house, easy going, and non-destructive. He's also housebroken..

Gage loves other dogs! He is currently fostered in Malibu with a husky and another Labrador. He loves to have play sessions with them. He will do his best in a home with another friendly canine to play with. He also likes going to the beach and meeting other dog to engage in fun activities with.

We don't know about cats so absolutely no cats for Gage. No exceptions.

Gage loves people too! He would do great with kids (over 6 of course), and would like best to be a dog that can spend a lot of time with his family.

He's good on leash, passes dogs nicely, doesn't pull much, and in generaly is a great walking buddy. People will ask to pet him because he is so cute!

Gage was turned into the shelter by his owner who didn't want dogs anymore. What a shame! He was turned in with his brother Gellan who we also have and who will be available for adoption shortly. The boys are fine split apart and do best with another dog. They can, however, be adopted together. They look like twins and their biographies would be the same. Both are very good dogs.

Gage is a healthy boy who is up to date on vaccines, neutered, microchipped, current on flea medication and cleared for adoption by our vet.

He's such a treasure and so good in the house, in the car, on the beach, walks, etc. Whoever adopts this prince is going to be so lucky!

Biscuit adopted!

Meet Biscuit! Biscuit is a darling petite Cream Golden Retriever puppy. She is just 40 lbs and only 8 months old.  She is the sweetest little girl in town.
 
Biscuit was originally found as a stray and taken to a shelter. We can’t believe no one came to get her because there are so many words to describe her: adorable, friendly, easy going, cute …. We can’t imagine how she felt in that horrible, cold shelter.
 
This little girl is wonderful with all people and dogs. She is currently fostered with three big labs and two human kids and she loves to play with them all. She also likes to snuggle with them too! She likes attention from humans and will try to be close to people all of the time to get it.  
 
Biscuit is easy on the leash. She enjoys going out for a walk but settles nicely when her human stops to talk with the neighbors.
 
Biscuit is a great candidate for dog park or dog beach as she is good with other dogs and she enjoys play time. She is great at sharing toys too and has no issues with food.
 
Biscuit is learning her commands like sit and shake. She is completely housebroken and even knows how to use a doggie door – what a smart girl.
 
Biscuit is not destructive and is great in the house. However all young dogs make mistakes and she may have a potty accident (she has not had one at her foster home) or may chew something she shouldn't. She does like to try to steal socks when her foster parents are folding the laundry – silly puppy. So, her new family should be a home committed to a young puppy with lots of attention, exercise and playtime.
 
Biscuit is a young girl who will need her exercise each day and who thrives on human and dog interaction. She will do best in a home that has the time for a young Retriever and not somewhere where she will be in a yard alone all day. This is a household companion who wants to be by your side all the time. She really deserves the best home!
 
This little girl is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. She is ready for her forever family!  Will it be you?

Beta Lin adopted!

Beta Lin is a gorgeous 3-4 year-old purebred female Labrador Retriever girl. What cutie pie! She's a perfect sized female and she has a beautiful face, and the softest ears ever.

This girl is sweet and mellow and easy going. She is really smart – knows her commands of "sit" and “shake” and "go in the backyard".  She's a great girl in the house, too. And she rides beautifully in the car - even sitting right next to her other lab brothers. She cannot wait to go for a walk or to the dog park and carries her leash in her mouth to the gate.

Beta Lin loves to chase a ball in the yard. She eagerly explores and smells all the new scents at the dog park or in the backyard at her foster home. She loves to lie in her crate at night on her doggie bed in her foster home. She plays well with other dogs at the park and sometimes sleeps with her head on her brothers back.

It's quite hard to imagine such a sweet angel on the streets but she was rescued as a stray and no one came for her. We took her in and took her home for fostering with her two lab brothers. She is so happy and doing great.

This girl will do great with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only. She gets on beautifully with her two older energetic brother labs and is friendly with other dogs at the dog park. She enjoys the dog park and exploring the area; she would do great on hikes and jogs. She is a medium energy girl with extra energy in the mornings and loves a walk any time of day. She is happy just laying on the patio in the sun or at your feet in the house.

Beta Lin is well behaved on the leash. She great other dogs well and rarely barks at them or when she is in the backyard. She corrects easily and wants to please.

She is a snuggle bunny and loves her person or people and likes to be close. She loves to be petted and will lick your hands and face to give you kisses. She will happily sleep on her own bed all night in her crate with the door open but really wants to come into your bedroom and snuggle with you. She loves having her belly rubbed and giving kisses to her foster dad. She imagines she is a lapdog and loves to cuddle.

Beta Lin shows almost no interest in cats on her walks but we have not really tested her so no kitties for her at this time. NO exception!

She is a gentle and sweet dog so we think she will do fine with kids! No children under age 6 please.

Beta Lin is a healthy girl and is microchipped, spayed, up to date on vaccines, and current on flea control.

Kaya 2 adopted!

Meet Kaya, the most easy going happy girl!  She's a purebred, white or light yellow colored sweetheart of a nice petite size at only 65 pounds. Kaya is 9 years young and a super healthy girl.  Don't be fooled by her age...this is one healthy happy girl!

Kaya comes to us from an owner who has had both her and her sister Macey (also available for adoption) since they were just puppies!  Unfortunately their family lost their home and is forced to move into a location that does not accept large dogs.  Kaya and Macey could definitely be adopted to the same home if someone is so kind.  But Kaya can also be adopted separately - as long as she goes to a home with another doggie companion.
 
Kaya is a purebred Labrador with a heart of gold.  This girl is wonderful with every dog and person she meets!  She is terrific with all other dogs both big and small.  In fact she comes from a home with a little Chihuahua and her sister Lab and did great with both dogs!   She enjoys meeting new dogs and greets all of them with ease.  She has a lovely submissive temperament.
 
And... Kaya also lived with a small toddler, so we also know her to be very good around young children.  This girl would be a fabulous choice for a family with kids or grandchildren!

Kaya also recently got a clean bill of health at the vet!  She had a full senior blood panel done and had xrays of her hips.  Not only did her bloodwork come back perfect, but her hips are in great shape too with no displaysia.  She is a super healthy girl with the paperwork to prove it!

Kaya is non destructive and completely potty trained! She is an easy, happy, loving girl to have around.  She is a low to medium energy girl.  She loves her daily walks, but would also do fine if you happened to miss a day or two of walking.  She enjoys exploring the yard and can be seen trotting around with a smile on her face.  She also sleeps soundly through the night on a doggie bed, or perhaps the tile floor if the weather is warmer.
 
Kaya walks pretty well on leash, if she starts to pull a bit, you just give her a quick tug and she's right back in step with you.  She is really an easy girl to walk.  And since she's not too heavy - only weighing about 65 pounds, she isn't too strong either.

We would love to find a home for Kaya where she will have another doggie companion, either big or small.  We would also love a home where she will get all of love and affection she deserves.  Losing the only family she has ever known is not easy, so she deserves a family that will remind her she is loved each and every day!

Kaya is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped and very healthy.

Molly McGuire adopted!

Meet Molly McGuire, a beautiful cream colored purebred English Labrador Retriever. She's a small 50 lbs of cuddle bug and she is a wonderful dog.

Molly is just 2 years old. She loves all people and more than anything she wants to be loved and cuddled. She adores attention and will snuggle up to you any time. She loves cuddling with her foster Lab brother Woody as you can see in her photos. She is very quiet in the home and rarely barks. She is 100% housebroken and knows her commands.

Molly wants to please. She loves food and is food-motivated. The upside of that is training is easy. The downside is that she will counter surf (like most all Labs) so leaving lots of goodies on the counter within reach is a no no.

Molly must go with another friendly and well balanced dog - preferably a Lab or Golden - who has great behavior and is good with all other dogs. She is perfect in foster but has shown us that left alone without another dog, she will display anxious behaviors like chewing. With another dog she settles and does beautifully. Once she knows her forever home is hers she will do fine even if the other dog is gone for the day at the vet or elsewhere. But she will need time to get to know her new home.

Molly loves to run, swin, and retrieve the ball. She is a little over excited with the ball but is learning to give it back when told to "drop" it. The more tired she gets, the more often she will "drop" the ball on command. We think she is getting close to perfect with this.

Molly is wonderful with other dogs she has met and knows. And she is pretty good meeting dogs off leash as well - at dog park or the beach. However ON leash Molly can bark and pull and get overly excited meeting other dogs. This is an area her new owner MUST be willing to work on. She needs training in that area specifically. She is smart amd eager to learn so this should be an easy fix so long as her new owner is dedicated and committed to working with a trainer.

She is great at dog park and dog beach and has been wonderful with any dog she has met. In a non-urban environment she would have no leash issue, but if you live in a crowded area, you will need to worlk on her excitement while on leash.

Molly has met cats and seems non-reactive. However we do think that because she is young and happy, she will chase a cat who's moving quickly. If a cat stood their ground, she would back down for sure and we would be shocked if she hurt a cat. That said, only families who are not going to freak out while the cats and dog get to know each other will be considered. This would be on a case by case basis.

Although Molly is great with all people, we prefer to place her in a home with adults or older children. This is so her new owners can commit to working with her on leash issue and not be too busy with little ones to fullfill that commitment to their new dog.

Molly is a healthy and extremely beautiful dog. She is a showstopper for sure. She's quite lovely and nicely bred. She is really a treasure.

Molly is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Macey adopted!

Meet Macey, an easy going, mellow cutie pie!  She's a purebred, yellow Labrador Retriever sweetheart of a nice smaller Lab size at only 65 pounds. Macey is a VERY young and healthy 9 years  Don't be fooled by her age...this is one healthy girl with lots of love to give!

Macey comes to us from an owner who has had both her and her sister Kaya (also available for adoption) since they were just puppies!  Unfortunately their family lost their home and is forced to move into a location that does not accept large dogs.  Kaya and Macey could definitely be adopted to the same home if someone is so kind.  But Macey can also be adopted separately - as long as she goes to a home with another doggie companion.

Blanca adopted!

Meet Blanca!  This girl is pure sweetness and just wants a family to call her very own. She is a purebred yellow female lab of about 7 years old.  She is loving, easy, mellow, kind, and perfect in every way.

We think this special girl would be ideally suited for therapy work if you so desire. She is that gentle.  She is affectionate with every person he meets, is mellow and loves belly rubs!

Blanca is also fabulous with children, as she has been fostered with a young toddler and just does fabulous with her!
 
Blanca is great with all other dogs both big and small!  She would do well in a home with other dogs, or as your one and only.  He is the type of dog that fits in well in any home environment!  Although she is now fostered in a home with another female lab and Blanca is loving having a doggie companion, so it would be nice if she could find a home with another doggie.

Blanca does pretty well on leash.  She can pull a bit, but walks fabulously on a gentle leader.  Her foster is walking her with a gentle leader and says she does great!  She is amazing on a leash, passing other dogs nicely.  She is friendly and has absolutely no aggression.  She loves her walks and getting out with her person.
 
Blanca is completely housebroken and has great house manners and is easy in the home.  She has found a few toys in her foster home and can be found carrying them around and maybe playing a short, easy game of fetch with them too!

She is also well trained.  She knows sit, down and shake on command!  She is a mellow girl who loves to just snuggle up for some nap time, but also enjoys her daily walks.  She would do great with a couple walks a day, but would also be okay if you didn't get her out for his walk one day, as she doesn't require it.  This makes her a very easy girl!

Blanca is a great car rider and is so well mannered that she is welcome anywhere.   Her foster family is loving having her as a house guest!   She is also such a gentle girl and never jumps up on people, so she is a great dog for a family with young children.

Blanca is spayed, microchpped and up to date on vaccines.  All she needs is a family to call her own!
 

Tiara adopted!

Meet Tiara, the happiest baby girl around!  She's an apparent purebred, black as night, happy and healthy, young, and very petite at probably 45-50 pounds.  She is only nine months old, so isn't done growing yet, but will probably be no more than 60 pounds full grown and soaking wet.

Tiara came to us from a very high kill shelter in the inland empire, where she was recognized as the jewel she is and rescued by one of our tireless volunteers. She is very sweet and a little shy, but has plenty of puppy energy that will require lots and lots of exercise.
 
So far, Tiara hasn't met anyone she doesn't like, including the cats in her foster's home.  They didn't like her much, but that didn't stop her from happily trying to meet them.  She has a lovely submissive puppy temperament with her foster sisters, which include a very dominant female.
 
Tiara is completely crate trained! She is an easy, happy, loving girl to have around.  She is a medium energy puppy, happy to play with her foster sisters, but will require a fair bit of daily exercise.  She sleeps soundly through the night in her crate, alongside the other dogs in the house.
 
Tiara isn't an extreme puller, as so many labs can be.  She is easily distracted, as any puppy is going to be, so will need an obedience course in order to walk proudly by your side without becoming so distracted.

We would love to find a home for Tiara where she will have another doggie companion, either big or small, but she will also do well as your one and only.  

Tiara is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped and very healthy.

Hutton adopted!

Meet Hutton, a stunningly handsome 3 year old black male Labrador. He has a soft, shiny black coat and is a nice size of about 75 lbs with beautiful big brown eyes.
 
Hutton is one very lucky boy!  He was found on the side of a freeway in very hot weather and taken to the local high kill shelter.  Our volunteer spotted him and knew he had to come home with us.

Hutton is playful 3 year old boy.  He is a young boy at age 3 so does need his daily exercise of course, but he settles nicely in the house and seems to like his crate.

Hutton gets along well with other dogs.  He has been fostered with 2 female labs and he gets along well with both.  He has enjoyed his time playing with the 2 year old playful Lab in his foster home.
 
Hutton is a cuddle bug and would likely enjoy a home where he is an only dog and can get all of your attention.  Although he would do fine with another doggie companion as well.  Hutton will sit up next to you and look up at you with his deep brown eyes just longing to be pet.  He will gently give you his paw as well.  It's super cute.  He will also cuddle up with you on the couch or bed if you let him.  He just loves affection from his person.

Hutton walks well on leash, although can pull a bit at times.  With just a little training he will be a great walker!  He is well trained too, knows his sit, down and shake commands!

Hutton will do best in a home where he will get the daily exercise young Labradors need and would love to go to dog park and dog beach and even some nice hikes with his new family. He is a young Lab after all so lots of activities and fun time for this happy boy!

We think he will do nicely with children, but he is a little timid at first and can be jumpy when excited, so no toddlers for this guy. We will consider children over the age of 7 on a case by case basis.

Hutton is housebroken and even uses the doggie door at his foster home.  Of course any dog should be watched at first in their new home.  He really loves his doggie toys and bones and can be seen carrying dog toys out of the toy basket one by one and creating a circle of toys around him - silly boy.  So his new family will need to have lots of fun toys and bones for him in his new home.

We don't know how Hutton will do with kitties so we prefer not to place him with them.

Hutton is good in the car too and enjoys going for car rides. Although he isn't too quick to get in on his own, he will just lay down and enjoy the ride.

Hutton is healthy, neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Annie Lin adopted!

Meet Annie Lin, an extremely pretty 4-5 year old yellow purebred Labrador Retriever. She's a sweetheart with big, beautiful, expression-filled eyes. She would love to live with a nice family who will adore her and take her on walks.


Annie is a cutie pie. She's a slightly chunky gal and she has a beautiful face and a nice blocky head. She  needs to lose a little weight and then she will be simply outstanding.



This girl is sweet and mellow and easy going. She is really smart - learning her commands of "sit" and “stay” and to go in the backyard.  She's a great girl in the house, too. And she rides beautifully in the car - even sitting right next to her other lab brothers. She cannot wait to jump in the car and she even looks to cars when she is being walked.



Annie loves to chase a ball in the yard.  She eagerly explores and smells all the new scents at the dog park or in the backyard at her foster home. She loves to lie in her crate at night on her doggie bed in her foster home.


It's quite hard to imagine such a sweet angel on the streets in Taiwan but she was rescued as a stray and no one came for her. We brought her to Los Angeles and took her on home for fostering where she is currently hanging out with two Lab foster brothers.

 This girl will do great with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only. She gets on beautifully with her two older energetic foster brother Labs and is friendly with other dogs at the dog park which she loves.

She is a low to medium energy girl with extra energy in the mornings and loves a stroll any time of day.

 Annie tends to pull on the leash at the start of the walk but as you move along she gets much better. The walks will help her lose weight and she loves them!  She corrects easily and wants to please. 



Annie is a snuggle bunny and loves her person or people and likes to be close. She loves to be petted and will lick your hands and face to give you kisses. She will happily sleep on her own bed all night but really wants to come into your bedroom and snuggle with you. She loves having her belly rubbed and giving kisses to her foster dad. She imagines she is a lapdog and loves to cuddle.


Annie shows almost no interest in cats on her walks but we have not really tested her so no kitties for her at this time.

 She is a large dog now so we think she will do fine with kids over who are not too young.



Annie is a healthy girl and is microchipped, spayed, up to date on vaccines, and current on flea control.

Tucket adopted!

Meet Tucket, a stunningly handsome and well bred yellow male Labrador Retreiver. Tucket is a bench bred (or English) Labby and he is a classic blockheaded boy. His coat is light cream and dew claws have been removed telling us he is an AKC Labrador.

This fella is only about 3 years old. He may be as old as 4 but either way he is a young, happy kid who has a ton of love to give.

Tucket is wonderful in every way a Lab should be. He has the typical Labby temperament of happy wiggles and soulful loyalty. He loves everyone and every dog. He's always in a good mood and that tail wags constantly.

Tucket is a playful young fella but is also a very calm mellow boy - especialy in the house. He's trustworthing and easy to be with. He does like to carry toys around in his mouth in true retriever fashion. Buy him some cute soft toys and you will up the cuteness factor. He's just adorable carrying his bear around.

Tucket loves dogpark and loves his walks. He pulls on the leash very hard in the beginning and must be walked on a pinch collar or gentle leader.  Once he is in the groove the pulling stops and he is very easy to control on a pinch collar.

Tucket is a good boy in the car too. He rides nicely with other dogs and enjoys looking out the window or taking a nap.

Tucket is a nice sized male at about 80 perfect breed standard pounds. His looks are hard to beat. He really is a beautiful dog. But what is most special about this Labrador is his outstanding temperament. It's absolutly perfect.

We have no tested Tucket with cats so no kitties for this boy.

Tucket will do find with children. He may knock a toddler over however so that must be considered. He likes kids and is very gentle with them.

Tucket is housebroken and sleeps on his dog bed at night like a good boy. He's a mellow, easy going doll with a happy, wiggly Lab demenor. They on't come better than this boy. He is a star.

Tucket is healthy, up to date on vaccinations, neutered, and microchipped.

Tucket will not go to a home where he is an only dog left alone all day while owners work. So if you are gond all day and the dog will be alone in a yard without canine company, please don't inquire on Tucket.

Daisy Duke adopted!

Meet Daisy Duke! The most loving yellow lab! This girl is pure sweetness and just wants a family to call her very own.  She is one true creampuff. Loving, easy, mellow, kind, and perfect in every way.

Daisy is 7 years old and is a purebred female Labrador Retriever at about 90 pounds. She has the loveliest smile that never goes away and an even lovelier personality.

We think this girl would be ideally suited for therapy work if you so desire. She is that gentle.

Daisy Duke was dumped at a local shelter by her owner who had her since she was just a puppy.  Of course we will never understand why this beautiful girl was left at a shelter.  We met Daisy and knew immediately she was coming home with us!  Daisy really is perfect in every way - calm, loving, patient and beautiful too.  She is a low to medium energy girl that is easy to have in your home.

Daisy is amazing on a leash, passing other dogs nicely. She never pulls and is an absolute pleasure to walk!  She is friendly and has absolutely no aggression. She loves her walks and getting out with her person. She enjoys saying hello to any man, woman, child, or dog that she sees. She is just a good girl with a good heart.

Daisy Duke is also perfect in the house!  She has great house manners and is easy in the home. She likes to explore the yard, but mostly just enjoys lounging near you for an afternoon nap.  She is also non destructive when left alone and we haven't even heard her bark once!

She is perfectly housebroken and has some training too.  She sits on command, knows how to stay and come when called!  But really, she just wants to lay her head in your lap and enjoy a good ear rub.  She would love to snuggle next to you for love and affection.  Although she doesn't try to get on any furniture at all. What a lovely lady!

Daisy Duke is being fostered as an only dog, so we know she would do well as your one and only.  She also gets along famously with other dogs too, so she could definitely be good doggie companion.   Daisy is low key and only wants a belly rub and a little walk or off leash romp to make her happy.

She is great in the car and is so well mannered that she is welcome anywhere. This girl is as calm and settled as they come. With some additional exposure and training, she most likely would enjoy therapy dog visits. She has a lot of love to give and share.  She is not jumpy or mouthy, so we think she would do very well in a home with young children.

Daisy Duke is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Nami adopted!

Meet Nami!  This darling girl is a petite, yellow Labrador Retriever and so loving and gentle.  She is just the perfect size and temperament for anyone!

Nami is 3 years old with medium energy.  She came to us from a rescue in Taiwan, and we were so happy to welcome her!  She is loving her new life in the States and enjoying all the new sights and smells.  She's even been to the beach and made lots of friends, both human and canine.  Her foster mom just adores her and wants only the best, most loving home for this special girl.

Nami is housebroken, has wonderful manners and settles nicely after exercise.  She appears to have some training because she knows to sit for meals and putting on the leash when it's time to go for a walk.  Like many Labs, she can be a bit of a counter surfer, so you'll want to be sure not to leave food out where she can reach it.  She is very affectionate with a spunky personality, but so far she doesn't seem too interested in toys.  What she loves most is to be with her person getting lots of ear and belly rubs!

Nami enjoys her walks and doesn't pull at all on the leash!  She is such a good girl.  She loves meeting other dogs and sometimes barks when she sees another one, but it's just because she's so sociable and has to greet them all.

Nami is a good girl in the car and jumps right in.  She would make a wonderful traveling companion.  She would do well in a home with other dogs and even children because she is so gentle.  We don't know how she is around cats, so no homes with kitties for her.

Nami is healthy, spayed, microchipped and up to date on her shots.

Sandy Lin adopted!

Meet Sandy Lin, a beautiful purebred female Labrador Retriever. Her foster mommy says that she is sweet as sugar! She's just about the cutest most happiest 5-year old yellow labby girl you've ever wanted to meet.

Sandy Lin came to us from the streets of Taiwan where she was found by our rescue group who showered her with tender loving care and then afer fully vetting her and making sure she was healthy,  sent her over to us.

Sandy is adjusting beautifully in her foster home and gets along really well with her three foster siblings who are also Retrievers! She loves running around the yard and chasing any throw toy that comes her way.

Even though Sandy is a medium energy girl she will love a good daily dose of exercise or even a hike on the weekends. Her foster mom says she would love a day at the beach chasing the seagulls ( on leash of course until she gets the walking on her own thing down) and speaking of walking, Sandy does like to pull on the leash a bit so maybe using a gentle leader on her will help her to slow things down.

We think Sandy would both love and benefit from a few obedience training classes with her new owners. She wants to please and would enjoy a class or two with other pups. 

This girl really loves her doggie chow and treats! You should see her do a little doggie dance when she hears the dogs bowls go clanking. She's currently on the pleasingly plump side so not too many treats please!

Sandy is completely potty trained and very well mannered and she's been really good about not destroying her foster family's belongings. Her foster mama calls her the waddler since she likes to waddle around with her cute little tail wiggling and held up high.  She loves car rides and even likes to ride shot gun where she can watch the cars go whizzing by.

We're not sure how she does with cats so she definitely needs to be cat tested before She can go to a home with cats.

Sandy is truly a very special girl and who ever is lucky enough to adopt her will love everything about her. All she wants is to be with her new family who will cuddle with her and give her LOTS of belly rubs.

Sandy is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Tootsie Roll adopted!

Awe what a sweetie! Meet Tootsie Roll, an adorable chocolate purebred English Labrador female who is so darling and sweet and just pure joy to have around.

She has a nice bocky head for a female and she is a stocky girl. She's a bit overweight at this time, but has already been started on a diet and exercise plan in foster and will quickly lose her excess weight as long as her new family remains committed to limited food and regular exercise for this sweet girl.  

Tootsie Roll is about 5 years old. She is calm as they come and a lovely houseguest. She is a mellow, easy going girl.  She gets along well with other dogs, and is fostered with a male lab puppy and does well with him.  Although she can be seen correcting his puppy behavior - no surprise as lab puppies can sometimes be annoying to adult dogs.   
 
Tootsie Roll is completely housebroken.   She is also well trained!  She knows sit, and down.  She has also met a couple young children in the neighborhood and does great with them.  She is not jumpy so we think she would do well in a home with kids.

Tootsie Roll is really good on leash.  She walks right with you and rarely pulls. She does get excited to meet other dogs on her walks, but it's pure joy to meet them, and never any aggression.
 
Tootsie Roll does well with other dogs, but she would likely enjoy being an only dog so she can get all the attention from her humans.

Tootsie Roll came to us from a local high kill shelter.  Our volunteer met her, and said she was the sweetest, chunky chocolate girl he had ever met!  Right then, she became and IndiLab dog!

Tootsie Roll is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Harley Brown adopted!

Meet Harley, a gorgeous blockheaded English Labrador os 5-6 years. He's a beautifully bred dog with a tender and gentle disposition. And he is drop dead gorgeous.

Harley came to us in horrible condition but after care, love, and a wonderful foster home, our vet has given him a clean bill of health and he is ready for his new fur-ever home!

He’s scrumpdillyicious, according to his foster mom.  Seriously, this big lug is the sweetest, most loving and most patient Lab we have run across in a very long time.  As an example, this boy came to us two weeks ago with a skin infection, dual ear infections and conjunctivitis. For two weeks, this dog has stood at the kitchen table every morning and every evening so that she could put drops in his ears and eyes, all without even a leash to keep him in place.  All he wants is love, and will just about sit on you to get it.

Harley came to us from a horribly neglectful home.  Our vet thinks he’s had these infections for a very long time.  Two weeks of meds, grain free food and medicated baths, and his dark chocolate coat is starting to come in, as you can see from the patches of dark in his pictures.  He is going to be stunning once his coat is better, with his huge blocky head and wrinkles and jowls.  Harley will do best on a good quality grain free will probably be fine.

Harley gets along well with the cats in his foster mom’s house, so dog savvy cats would not be a problem for him.  

He is completely house trained and has not had an accident in his foster’s home. He's not destructive and is a good boy who is mellow and sweet.

We guess Harley was left in a backyard, so we are working on his leash manners, but he so wants to please that we don’t think it will take long before he is trotting happily at his human’s side.  He gets along well with the pack in his foster’s home, but quite frankly, we would prefer that he be an only to get all the attention he’s never had.  Harley is a big guy, at 96 pounds, so we don’t recommend him for anyone under the age of 7.

Dawson adopted!

Meet Dawson! The most loving yellow lab! This guy is pure sweetness and just wants a family to call his very own. He is one true creampuff. Loving, easy, mellow, kind, and perfect in every way.

Dawson is 5-6 years old and is a medium sized Labrador Retriever at about 80 pounds. He has the loveliest smile that never goes away and an even lovelier personality.

We think this special boy would be ideally suited for therapy work if you so desire. He is that gentle.

Dawson was found as a stray on the streets and our volunteer instantly knew he didn't belong in the shelter.  We met Dawson and knew immediately he was coming home with us!  Dawson really is perfect in every way - calm, loving, patient and beautiful too.  He is a low to medium energy boy that is easy to have in your home.

Dawson is amazing on a leash, passing other dogs nicely. He never pulls and is an absolute pleasure to walk!  He is friendly and has absolutely no aggression. He loves his walks and getting out with his person. He enjoys saying hello to any man, woman, child, or dog that he sees. He is just a good guy with a good heart.

Dawson is also perfect in the house!  He has great house manners and is easy in the home. He likes to explore the yard, but mostly just enjoys lounging near you for an afternoon nap.  He is also non destructive when left alone and we haven't even heard him bark once!

He is perfectly housebroken and has some training too.  He sits on command, knows how to stay and come when called!  But really, he just wants to lay his head in your lap and enjoy a good ear rub.  He'd love to snuggle next to you for love and affection.  Although he doesn't try to get on any furniture at all. What a gentleman.

Dawson is being fostered with many other dogs and gets along famously with them.  He has the wisdom to know that he is the newest member of the pack and he hangs back to wait for meals and treats and seems to be more of a follower than a leader. He can be found carrying a ball or a toy around in his mouth when he's really happy - it's just adorable!   Dawson is low key and only wants a belly rub and a little walk or off leash romp to make him happy.

Dawson is great in the car and is so well mannered that he is welcome anywhere. This boy is as calm and settled as they come. With some additional exposure and training, he most likely would enjoy therapy dog visits. He has a lot of love to give and share.  He is not jumpy or mouthy, so we think he would do very well in a home with young children.

Dawson can make your dreams come true and you can make his come true as well. This treasure deserves a fabulous home where he will get all the love and attention he deserves.

Dawson is neutered, up to date on vaccines and flea control.

Peter adopted!

Meet Peter.  Peter is handsome yellow purebred Labrador.  Peter is 1-2 years old.  He is a nice sized male Labrador and has a thick dark yellow or golden super soft coat.  Peter is a happy friendly boy who always has a smile on his face and a wag in his tail.

Peter came to us after his owners turned him into a shelter.  He did have adoption interest but they didn't show up for him so we decided he had been there long enough.  

This fun young boy will need lots of daily exercise.  He should do a long walk or a jog everyday and would love hikes or the beach on weekends.  He is perfect for an active family or person.

Peter settles nicely in the house.  He is 100% house broken. He has nice house manners and stays off the furniture.  He is not destructive and is not a chewer, digger, or barker.  He's a tall boy so counter surfing is easy for him.  Its important his new family does not leave food, bread, avocados, bananas, and other "counter" foods where he can reach them. All Labs try to counter surf and if they find something making their work worth it, it just reinforces the behavior. It's always best to put all edible items away.

Peter does pull on the leash, so he is best walked with a training collar and will benefit from some training to walk next to his person instead of pulling you with excitement.  His foster family uses a gentle lead collar and gets great results.  He loves his walks and getting out with his person. He enjoys saying hello to any man, woman, child, or dog that he sees. He passes all of them with ease.

Peter knows "sit" & "lay down".  He's easy to train and wants to please.  Peter is food motivated and takes treats gently giving you a super easy way to train him.

Peter is really good boy in the car.  He will hop right in and just lay down to enjoy the ride.  He would love to accompany you on errands.

Peter has not been cat tested so we will not place him in a home with cats. He is wonderful with other dogs and will do great with or without a friendly canine companion.

This special boy is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Klein adopted!

Meet wonderful, gentle, amazing Klein, an AKC registered purebred, black Labrador Retriever or about 7 years who is perfect with children, dogs, and all people he meets. If you are looking for a therapy quality calm and lovely Lab, this boy is it. We love Klein!!!!

This perfect, sweet Lab will break your heart as he currently looks a little sad and is recovering from underfeeding, poor nutrition, and hair loss due to neglect and horrendous food.  The good news is he is getting everything he needs now and in short order will be absolutely as gorgeous outside as he is inside.

Klein came to us from a local shelter where he was turned in by an owner who had him since he was a puppy. The reason given was that the family's kids were allergic to Klein.  Thank goodness we were able to get to him quickly and get him out.

He is good with all dogs he meets - he can even be found snuggling up with his foster labbie sister and resting his head on top of her. We don't know how he will do with cats, so no kitties for Klein in his new home at this time.
 
Klein is a low to medium energy boy who is very calm and good in his home. He is completely housebroken, non-destructive, and well mannered.  He sleeps soundly through the night on his dog bed.  He loves attention and is a very affectionate boy.  He is also sooooo tolerant of all things such as baths, nail trimming, and so much more.  He is not jumpy or mouthy, so we think he would do great in a home with young children.

He would love a nice walk each day from his new owner. He can pull a bit on leash in the beginning of a walk, so is best walked with a training collar.

Klein's new home must commit to feeding a grain free food such as Taste of the Wild, Orijen, or the like, or even better - species appropriate raw food.  Klein  (and all Labs really) should never consume grain. Grain is rice, corn, wheat, barley, oats etc. And in this stage of getting healthy, getting his shiny coat back, and gaining weight, Klein deserves only the best highest quality food.

Klein had a skin scraping to double check that there were no additional problems and the test was negative. So now it's up to us to let him recover physically. Meanwhile spiritually and mentally, this boy seems to already be happy and know he is safe and loved!!!!

Klein is a pretty exceptional dog. He is very well behaved and of outstanding temperament. Several of our volunteers would love to adopt Klein themselves but all of us here at Indi Lab already own more than enough Labradors!!!!! The family lucky enough to adopt Klein will be truly blessed if they are open, willing, and patient enough to see him through his recovery.

Klein is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Valor adopted!

Meet Valor! And just as his name suggests, he is as courageous as can be.  After all, he survived a stay in a horrible shelter, was saved, and has been a perfect gentleman ever since!  This boy is as easy as can be!

Valor is about 8 years old and is a darling sweet heart with the best loving disposition. After being thrown away like trash to a kill shelter, all this angel wants is someone to love him and to love in return.

Valor is a handsome guy with a huge heart.  He has a gorgeous face and is ready for his forever family.  Valor has wonderful house manners and uses a doggie door when he needs to go out.  He is completely housebroken and has never had an accident in the house.  


Valor will do fine with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only. He is currently fostered with one female and two male labs.  He gets along great with all of them and will be a wonderfully behaved boy when visiting a dog park or dog beach.

Valor is not currently fostered at a house with a pool.  However, we suspect he may enjoy one of his own.  He was given a bath in his fostered family’s house.  He truly enjoyed his time in the water!

Valor is a low energy boy.  He would love a daily walk or two, and to simply lounge around at your feet in between!  Valor is a little out of shape having - likely not having been exercised prior to being rescued.  He now loves to go on walks.  Right now a one mile walk is about as much as he can do.  He is a great guy on the leash, never pulling and passing other dogs with ease.  At first he did not understand that when his foster mom takes out the leash, it means it is walking time.  However, he now knows and does a cute dance in excitement.  Valor is building up his muscles and endurance after what appears to be a sedentary lifestyle. He's enjoying getting in shape!

Valor also enjoys his foster human kids.  He likes to follow them around the house and sit next to them when they are playing.  He probably needs to be with a family who has children older than 7 as any lab can knock a toddler down.

So, if you are looking for a friendly, handsome, mature guy, you should meet Valor.  He is going to make a wonderful addition to any family!

Valor is neutered, microchipped,  and up to date on his shots. He's a healthy senior who just needs a family to call his own!

Holland adopted!

Meet Holland, a beautiful, smiley, yellow purebred Labrador boy. He's a mellow yellow sweetheart who is so darn adorable in every way. We love this fella.

Holland is a medium sized boy who has a nice medium calm temperament. He's just about 4-5 years of age so a great age and disposition for most anyone!

He's a very good boy and has learned his commands easily. Holland is perfect in the house and is completely housebroken! He's not destructive when left alone and will patiently wait for you.

Holland is not much of a barker. He prefers belly rubs and snuggles and likes to cuddle into his person.

Holland likes the dog park and makes friends easily! He loves to go in the car with you and is such a good boy. He'll stick his head out the window to see and smell everything. He would love a home that will take him to the dog park or even dog beach to meet friends and have fun outings.

Holland loves his walks too. He is a very good boy on the leash meeting other dogs. He's a friendly, typical Labrador. At times he can pull on the lead and needs a quick correction. He wants to please his handler. He will love accompanying you on your cruises about the neighborhood.

Holland is great with other dogs large and small. He loves them all. He will do fine with another friendly canine companion, or as your one and only truy love

Holland seems fine with cats as well. He was initially in a foster home with several cats and did great!

This gorgeous angel is a healthy boy who is just recovering from an ear infection and still putting a bit of weight on. He's doing great and is ready for a new home.

Holland is neutered and up to date on vaccinations. All he needs now is a home to treasure him and love him forever.

Praline  adopted!

Praline, a gorgeous blockheaded English Labrador is perfect in every way.  She is a lovely AKC registered former show and champion dog - retired at the early age of 4 due to severe mastitis after breeding which has since been successfully treated and cured. She is ready to live the good life with her furever family.

She is an absolutely stunning chocolate girl with a wonderful, mothering disposition. Praline is somewhat overweight. She is about 85 pounds but is petite and has been put on a healthier diet with exercise. We know she will regain her girlish figure once her adopted family takes her on walks.

Praline is a lower energy girl who has spurts of medium energy at the dog park where she playfully greets other dogs. She gets along extremely well with her two foster lab brothers. 

Praline came to when her breeder determined that due to mastitis she had reached her puppy bearing limit. Her breeder knew Indi Labs reputation for finding only the very best home and thus entrusted her placement to us. Praline's mastitis has been successfully treated and she has been spayed. Her main challenge now is getting off the extra weight so she can continue to live a long healthy life.


Praline is a lower energy girl usually.  She enjoys a couple nice walks each day and going to the dog park with her lab brothers.  But otherwise she is happy to lay at your feet throughout the day.  She is super sweet and gentle too!  She loves to ride in the car and she is starting to learn her commands.

 This lovely girl  shows little interest in toys and only slight interest in retrieving a ball. We think this is because she was pretty much a breeding girl until recently. She settles beautifully in the house after she has had her exercise and is completely house broken. 


Praline is good with other dogs and good on the leash – not pulling at all. She passes other dogs beautifully and greets each dog she meets with ease. She is a very good girl in the car and just lays down while you drive.

We think Praline will do fine with another friendly canine companion but she does truly love her person and likes all the attention if she can get it so she will probably love being your one and only dog as well.


Praline  will be fine with children though any playful Lab her weight can knock over toddlers. She is a gentle girl and is not jumpy at all, so likely would do very well in a home with young children. She does not seem to react to cats on her walks but we have not truly cat tested her.



Praline is spayed, microchipped and up to date on shots.

If you feel this girl is right for you and you have been home checked and approved, please shoot an email to donna@indilabrescue.org

Bobby Magee adopted!

Meet Bobby Magee, gorgeous sweet three year old neutered male with a heart of gold. Bobby gets along great with all dogs and people and is eager to learn and please his people. He has a perfect block head with beautiful conformation, a healthy shiney coat and feet like bear paws.

To walk Bobby on leash is to have all heads turn in envy at the beauty of this perfect English boy. Bobby needs a pool or access to one as he was born to swim and loves it more than words could describe. He is in the pool at least five times a day at his foster home and would be happy to add more time.

We would like someone who is home for him, either a work from home person, or a young in spirit active retired person, or a stay at home mom. He was neglected for his whole life by a family who worked long hours and had him as an outside dog. When he came into foster with us he could hardly believe he was finally where he always belonged, loved and safe and warm at night on a bed next to his foster mom. He is so grateful and shows it with every nuzzle and tender snuggle and never wanting to be far from you.

Bobby is a big boy so would do best with children at least eight and older as he could accidentally topple a toddler and we don't want that, it also would break his heart to knock one over.

Mr Magee needs some leash training but works beautifully with a prong collar for training only. With training and love some lucky person will have an exceptional dog to enjoy for many years to come. His foster mom has said there will be tears when this beautiful boy leaves with his forever family as Bobby has touched her heart and the hearts of all he has met with his beauty and love and generosity of spirit. He has not been cat tested so no kitties for Bobby.

Tilly Chestler adopted!

Meet Tilly Chestler, a darling 1 year old female yellow Labrador Retriever. She is playful, fun, full of spunk and ready for just the right fur-ever home!

Tilly is a very pretty pale cream Labrador. She's on the petite side and has a wonderful smail. It's hard to imagine a dog like this needing a home, but here she is!

Tilly is a young, active pup of just a year. She likes to play and rumble, run and have fun, and just be a young happy girl. She will love dog park, dog beach, obedience classes, hikes, jogs and all manner of fun things you can do with a younger Labrador. She would love to be your sidekick!

Tilly will do best in a home where she will get the exercise, playtime, training, and patience all younger Labrador Retrievers requires. Although she is good with kids, we prefer to place her in a home either without children or with older children because she is an active playful girl who could play too roughly with a toddler if sh was very excited.

Tilly will not do her best left alone all day in a yard. Like most Labradors, she needs companionship, excercise, and being part of a family. She would love another friendly canine companion if you do work long days. And we think she would love being with a younger playful friend. If you work from home or work shorter hours, we think she will do fine as an only provided she gets the exercise and attention and training she craves.

Tilly makes friends easily and loves other dogs. She is good in the car on rides and is good in the house after her exercise. She is potty trained too.

Tilly is a healthy young girl. She is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Caldwell adopted!

Caldwell is a lovely chunk o love, weighing in at a stately 103 pounds, although his foster mom was really surprised at this number.  He doesn't seem that big, either in the house or on walks. Caldwell came to us from a very high kill shelter in California.  He is a fabulous golden yellow, with a magnificent head and English body.

Caldwell is approximately 5-6 years old, and mellow as the day is long.  He wants to roll in the grass and lay at your feet.  He walks surprisingly well on leash, given his size, and happily trundles along, stopping to sniff every pee opportunity.  Unfortunately, Caldwell is not great with kitties, so we won't place him with them.

We believe Caldwell was an outside dog his entire life, and that is borne out by his intense interest in everything inside the home.  He is now perfectly crate trained, and heads outside with the pack for his morning constitutional.  He is fostered with a dominant female and a pushy little pug, and gets along great with all of them.  He does love a ball, but doesn't run very hard for it.

As you can see from his pictures, he is gorgeous, but what you can't see is that all he really wants is a good shoulder scratch and a warm place to lay his head.  Caldwell is neutered, microchipped and current on his shots. 

Shadow 4 adopted!

Meet Shadow 4!  This guy is pure sweetness and just wants a family to call his very own. He is a purebred black male lab of about 7 years old and a nice smaller size at only 65 pounds.  He is loving, easy, mellow, kind, and perfect in every way.

We think this special boy would be ideally suited for therapy work if you so desire. He is that gentle.  He is affectionate with every person he meets, is mellow and loves belly rubs!

Shadow found himself at a high kill shelter outside the Los Angeles area and luckily our Indilab volunteer was able to make a special trip out to rescue this boy from where he clearly didn't belong.
 
Shadow is great with all other dogs both big and small and cats too!  He just ignores the cats in his foster home, so is a good choice for a family with cats.  Shadow would do well in a home with other dogs, cats or as your one and only.  He is the type of dog that fits in well in any home environment!
Shadow is amazing on a leash, passing other dogs nicely. He is friendly and has absolutely no aggression. He loves his walks and getting out with his person. He enjoys saying hello to any man, woman, child, dog or cat that he sees. He is just a good guy with a good heart.
 
Shadow is completely housebroken and has great house manners and is easy in the home.  He is true to his name and his Labrador nature by being a shadow to his humans throughout the day.  He doesn't try to get on any furniture and is content just napping on his dog bed or on the floor next to you in the house.

He is also well trained.  He knows sit, down and shake on command!  He is a mellow boy who loves to just snuggle up for some nap time, but also enjoys his daily walks.  He would do great with a couple walks a day, but would also be okay if you didn't get him out for his walk one day, as he doesn't require it.  This makes him a very easy boy!

Shadow is a great car rider and is so well mannered that he is welcome anywhere. He loves to put his nose out the window and smell the fresh air, and just relaxes enjoying his ride.  His foster mom is loving having him as a house guest!  He is also such a gentle boy and never jumps up on people, so he is a great dog for a family with young children.

Shadow also enjoys his soft doggie toys - he can be seen carrying them around and playing with them which is so adorable to see.  This boy can make your dreams come true and you can make his come true as well. This treasure deserves the best home. And he is well worth it.

Shadow is neutered, microchpped and up to date on vaccines.  All he needs is a family to call his own!

Cappucino (Cappy) adopted!

Meet Cappucino or Cappy for short!  He is a lovely purebred chocolate male Labrador of about 5-6 years old.  He is a lovely combination of playful energy and nice indoor mellowness, not to mention very, very handsome with a statuesque body and a nice blocky head.  He is about 75 pounds, so is a nice size for a male lab.

Cappy is a medium energy boy.  He loves his walks and loves to play fetch too!  He adores his daily exercise and is the perfect mix of fun and easy.  He walks fabulously on leash, rarely pulling, so he makes a great walking partner!  He is a healthy, fit boy, so he would also enjoy hiking, dog park or dog beach too.

Cappy came to us from a high kill shelter outside Los Angeles.  When we heard about him, we became very worried about what would happen to him as the shelter is overcrowded and understaffed.  So we rushed right down and he immediately came home with us!
 
Cappy is a happy boy who loves belly rubs!  He will show you his belly often if you promise to pet it - so cute!  He is great with all other dogs - having fostered with other labs and a pug too!  And Cappy is great with cats as well!  He is a great choice for a family with cats.
 
Cappy is wonderful with other dogs and very good on the leash. We think Cappy will do fine with another friendly canine companion as he is wonderful with the dogs he has been fostered with and other dogs he has met but he does truly love his person and is happy as an independent boy, so he will do fine as an only dog as well.
 
Cappy is not destructive in the house, and settles very well.  He is also a very good boy in the car and just lays down while you drive.   As a medium energy boy, he does require his daily exercise, and would love a yard he could run around in and explore during the day.  He uses the doggie door at his foster home so lets himself in and out with ease.

Cappy knows his commands of sit and down.  Of course if you have a ball or a treat he responds best - heehee.  Cappy would do well with children.  Although keep in mind any playful Lab can knock over toddlers so we will be placing him in a home where children are over the age of 6.  
 
Cappy is healthy, neutered, up to date on shots, and microchipped.

Halle adopted!

Meet Halle, a lovely purebred black female Labrador who is a sweet, gentle girl. This jet black girl is about 6 years old and is a nice size at about 65 pounds.  She is a lovely combination of playful energy and nice indoor mellowness.

Halle came to us from a local shelter were she was found as a stray and our volunteer made an extra trip to the shelter to make sure this girl was safe in the Indilab Family!
 
Halle is a low to medium energy girl.  She would enjoy a couple nice walks each day and some time to play fetch in the yard.  But otherwise she is happy to lay at your feet throughout the day.  She is super sweet and gentle too!  She loves to sit up next to you for affection and will give kisses back to you as well.

Halle is a really lovely girl. She loves toys - especially soft ones with squeakers that she can carry around in her mouth everywhere she goes. It's just darling.  She also loves retrieving the tennis ball and will bring it back to you, although needs a little coaxing to drop it for you to throw again.  She has a very gentle mouth and is happy to release the ball when you take it out of her mouth.

Halle settles beautifully in the house after she has had her exercise. She likes to be close to you and nap at your feet.

Halle is good with other dogs and good on the leash. She passes other dogs beautifully and greets each dog she meets with ease.  She is still learning how to walk on leash though.  It seems she may have spent her previous life in a backyard without much leash time as she can pull a bit and zig zag back and forth.  She corrects easily and wants to please, so with a little training she will be a good walker right next to her person.

She is a very good girl in the car and just lays down while you drive.

We think Halle will do fine with another friendly canine companion but she does truly love her person and likes all the attention if she can get it so she will probably love being your one and only dog as well. She settles beautifully in the house and also loves her crate.  Halle sleeps soundly through the night and can often be found going into her crate throughout the day on her own - always taking a toy in with her too!

Halle will be fine with children though any playful Lab can knock over toddlers. She is a gentle girl and is not jumpy at all, so likely would do very well in a home with young children.

Halle is spayed, microchipped and up to date on shots.
 
If you think Halle is the girl for you, be sure to complete an application to adopt and then send an email to  IndiLabGirl@gmail.com

Sunset adopted!

Meet Sunset. Sunset is a mild mannered, easy going purebred girl of about 4 - 5 years of age.  She is a pretty petite thing with just about the prettiest girly face and eyes.

Sunset is a lovely pale yellow Dudley girl.  If you aren’t familiar, a Dudley is a yellow Lab with a chocolate Lab’s eye color and nose color. It's quite pretty and some people are big fans of the Dudleys. We love them all!
 
This gorgeous purebred angel recently arrived from a local high kill shelter. She was turned in by her owners after being bred for puppies. Her little must have only recently been weaned when she arrived from the shelter. Her teets are still swollen from nursing. What a sad thing. The good news is she will find forever love now and as to the swollen teets, they go away in about a month.
 
Sunset is good with other dogs. She gets along well with her foster Labradors and has done especially well with a small pug too. She even does well with pushy dogs since she is so mild. We think she will do great with a canine companion or as your one an only.

Sunset likes all of the older children she has met so we think she's a good candidate for kids. As always little toddlers may be too small for a rescued Labrador so consider with caution.

Sunset seems to want to chase cats so we will not place her in a home with kitties at this time.
 
Sunset seems to now be housebroken. She will sleep quietly through the night in her crate, although she doesn’t much care for it.  In her new home she will do nicely on her own soft bed next to yours. She is quite the snuggler so we won't be surprised if she is invited into her new owners bed from time to time!

Sunset pulls just a little on leash, but not bad at all.  A little obedience training and she’ll be perfect on leash. One must consider that it is likely she has never been on a leash in her backyard dog breeding life. So leash walks are new, exciting, fun, and such a wonder for her.
 
Sunset is spayed, up to date on shots and microchipped.  All that she needs now is your home and your love!

Spencer adopted!

Meet Spencer a handsome 4-5 year old pale yellow purebred Labrador.  Spencer is an English bench bred stunner with a nice conformation, a gorgeous blockhead, otter tail, and darling round cat-like paws. He is just beautiful.  He is wiggly, very happy, and LOVES attention.  

Spencer came to us from a local shelter where he was picked up as a stray. It is hard to believe he ended up at a shelter, because he is just a treasure to have as a companion.

Spencer is a medium energy boy who really enjoys his walks.  He is an easy dog to walk, no pulling on the leash.  This dog would enjoy an active family where he can get nice long walks, hiking, or trips to dog beach and dog park.

Spencer is completely house broken. He is a true Velcro labbie who will follow you wherever you go.  He sleeps soundly though the night right next to your bed too.    

Spencer can be pretty mouthy when playing with toys or taking treats. He must be supervised playing with children. And only older children over age 8 will be considered.  He is not toy possessive and you can take things from him but when being playful with a toy or bone, he is not as aware of his mouthiness as he should be. This is common with Labs and not an issue so long as his new owners are aware.

Spencer knows sit and shake.  He is food motivated and makes good eye contact with his person both traits make him easy to train.
 
Spencer will do fine with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only.  He really wants to be with his family and enjoys being right in the mix.  He is not really a dog to leave in the back yard all day by himself.

We do not know how Spencer will do kitties so we will not consider him for a home with cats at this time.

Spencer is healthy, neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines

Godfrey puppy adopted!

Meet Godfrey! He is a sleek, adorable, jet black, 7 month old, purebred Labrador Retriever. This puppy is a sweet boy with a lot of love and he needs a home that will give him all this youngster deserves.

Godfrey came to us after being picked up as a stray from a high kill shelter. Such a beautiful boy must have had an owner looking for him right? Well they never came and Godfrey waited. Finally, we took him under our wing so he would have a chance at the right home.

Godfrey is gorgeous. He is shiny and smooth with the blackest coat and most stunning burnt sugar brown eyes. He's a nicely bred boy and is still a little guy at only about 55 lbs. He'll continue to grow untl he is 2 years - just like all Labradors

Godfrey will need a home that will give him lots of puppy exercise. Retrieving a ball, going to dog park, hiking, jogging, dog beach....all of these things are wonderful for puppyhood adolescence.

He will need good socialization especially since it appears he wasn't given all that is required. He can react a tad on leash at first and that is common for puppies who have never been walked in their lives. He is already adjusting to this new lifestyle beautifully!

Godfrey has lots of Labby energy and loves to play and have fun. He is still learning what toys are his and which are the humans so his new home will want to be certain to continue that education with him. He may make mistakes like all puppies do.

Godfrey seems to be fine in the house and fine in the car waiting, and in the yard by himself or with the Lab he is fostered with.

We think Godfrey will do nicely in a home with another playful young female or as an only and he should do well with children over age 7.

We don't know about cats, so no kitties for this youngster at this time.

Godfrey  is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. All he needs now is a wonderful forever home!

Dutchess 2 adopted!

Meet Dutchess 2, an adorable chunky 5 year old purebred Labrador Retriever. This super mellow angel is beyond adorable. Shes a milk chocolate cream puff and will wiggle her way into your heart in no time.

Dutchess came to us from a family that didn't want her anymore. It was very sad. She had basically been living in a back yard without much attention but with a lot of food freely fed. She was not ever walked or exercised. Consequently she put on weight which is not good for any dog, especially a Labrador.

The daughter of the people who owned Dutchess wanted her to have more so we arranged to take her into our rescue and give her what she deserves!

Since being with us Dutchess has already lost 5 pounds! She is slimming down so easily with her short walks and limited food. Also she looks brighter and happier and is really loving her new life as a spoiled indoor beloved dog!

Dutchess loves her people. She wants to be near you and is absolutely a joy in the house. She's easy going, mellow, non-destructive and sweet as sugar. She loves attention, strokes, pets, kisses, hugs, and belly rubs.

Dutchess does well with other dogs too, but she really would love to be the only dog in a home getting all the attention for herself. In her foster home, she always wants to be in the front so she can get to you for love.

Dutchess is completely housebroken and trustworthy in the house. She is non-destructive and a very good girl. She takes her treats gently and doesn't get on the furniture.

Dutchess is really just the best family dog around. Her new family will need to be ok with her being a larger Lab and more importantly, ok with continuing her diet and taking her on a nice walk each day. She pulls a tad on the leash but is learning and she will be a wonderful walking companion.

Dutchess will do nicely with children as well. She is very gentle. We don't know about cats, so no kitties for Dutches at this time.

Charlie White adopted!

Meet Charlie White, a large, stunningly handsome, purebred white Labrador Retriever male. This gorgeous hunk is a gentle boy of about 3 years and he is just wonderful in every way.

Charlie is a gentle giant. He is mellow and easy going and a really good boy in the house. He's housebroken, non-destructive, and has wonderful house manners. He's big though at 100 lbs but they don't come much gentler than Charlie.

Charlie doesn't need a crate. He's totally trustworthy in the house.

Charlie is a medium energy boy who is just wonderful with every single dog he meets. He loves his walks and doesn't really pull on the leash much at all which is good since he is a bigger boy. He passes other dogs nicely.

Charlie will retriever a ball and likes a ball, but he's a pretty mellow guy so drops it and gets tired of fetch after awhile.

Charlies favorite thing is to be near his person. He loves people and likes to be close. He'll lay at your feet while you work and he'll follow you from room to room to be where you are. He's a true companion dog.

Charlie was dumped at a high kill shelter by his owner who didn't want him anymore.  That's sad enough. But what is even worse is that this stunningly beautiful and gentle purebred was dumped with the worst ear infection our vet has ever seen. It was so bad that he had to be put under for us to even clean and inspect them. Thankfully we were able to treat them and get Charlie healthy. We can't imagine how anyone could allow a dog like Charlie to suffer so much.

Charlie is a wonderful dog. He's gentle enough for kids and even though he's so tall, he never touches anything on the counter. He is truly and gentle giant.

We think Charlie will do best with another canine companion or with someone around a lot since he loves company.

Charlie is untested with cats so we will not be placing him with kitties.

This stud muffin is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped and healthy. All he needs now is his very own loving family.

Butter Lee adopted!

Meet Butter Lee, the most handsome, softest purebred Lab.  This 4-5 year old boy is medium energy and medium size but large on charm.  Butter will make you melt!

Butter came to us from our sister rescue in Taiwan, where he was found as a stray and pulled from a government shelter.  It's unbelievable because if you can imagine the ideal labby boy this is him.  He is just the most perfect, loyal companion.  

Butter is housebroken and is a gentleman in the home.  He is not at all destructive nor does he bark.  He is a nice balance of playful and mellow.  He knows sit and shakes both paws.  His parlor trick is catching food in his mouth when you throw it!  He doesn't seem too interested in toys.  He's a people dog and really just wants to be at his person's side getting loved on and having his head rubbed.  

Butter loves his walks and settles nicely after his exercise.  He is curious about all the new smells here and pulls a bit on leash but corrects easily.  He is great with other dogs and passes them beautifully.  

Butter enjoys car rides.  He hops right in and lays down sometimes peeking his head out the window to check out the sights and smells.  He would make a wonderful companion on travels to the beach, parks, road trips, etc.

Butter will do well as your one and only or in a home with another canine companion.  He does jump sometimes when he gets excited, so we recommend a home with children over 7 years old.  He has not been cat tested so no homes with kitties for this boy.

Butter is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines.

Jake Lee adopted!

Meet Jake Lee, an adorable purebred Golden Retriever puppy of 4 1/2 months. This little man is adorable and has a wiggle and wag to melt your heart.

Jake Lee and his litter mate brother Panda Lee came to us because a breeder was over their limit and got into some serious trouble. They are from our sister rescue in Taipai and the breeder having too many dogs was forced to give quite a few up. Our volunteers took these two babies in along with a few others and we are hoping to find them the best forever homes.

Jake is a young baby so we expect lots of playing, chewing, and basic run-of-the-mill puppy shenanigans. He will need a puppy-proofed home with someone who is fully committed to the puppy stage and to raising a dog for life.

Jake will need training, tons of socialization with other doggies, chew appropriate toys, a crate, time. patience, and most of all love. He's bound to make mistakes and chew the wrong things. He's bound to have potty accidents. And he is bound to require some work. On the flip side he is absolutely delicious and will be a friend for life!

Jake is a healthy youngster who has recieved all of his puppy vaccines and been wormed. He is fully imunized so he can attend doggie daycare, go to dog park, or even to dog beach. Puppies should be repeat wormed and would do best with a repeat fecal exam at the vet in a few weeks.

Jake will require a neuter deposit and must be neutered by 9 months at the new owners expense. This is strictly enforced and there are no exceptions.

Adoption donation for Jake Lee is $475

Jake will do best in a home where someone is around most of the time - at least until he is a bit older. Puppies do not do well left alone for long days.

Louey Gold adopted!

Meet Louey Gold, the handsomest Golden Retriever EVER! This guy is pure golden sweetness and just wants a family to call his very own.

Louey is one true creampuff. Loving, easy, mellow, kind, and perfect in every way.

At 4-5 years old Louey is a medium sized English Cream Golden Retriever. He has the loveliest smile that never goes away and an even lovelier personality.  We think this special boy would be ideally suited for therapy work if you so desire. He is that gentle.

Louey Gold has great house manners and is easy in the home. He is housebroken and non-destructive when left alone and is a really good and respectful boy.

Louey sits and shakes on command, but really just wants to lay his head in your lap and enjoy a good ear rub. He has a coat that is so soft and silky that you just want to nuzzle into him and whisper all your troubles away. He'd love to snuggle next to you on the couch or bed, but understands if you don't like that and waits to be invited. What a gentleman.

Louey does pull on leash, so he is best walked with a training collar and will benefit from some training to walk next to his person instead of pulling you with excitement.  He loves his walks and getting out with his person. He enjoys saying hello to any man, woman, child, or dog that he sees. He passes all of them with ease.

Louey is great with all other dogs!  He would probably be happiest in a home with another doggie companion, but mostly would love so spend lots of time with his people.  He is not a dog that wants to be left alone all day while his family is at work.

Louey is starting to enjoy his soft squeaky toys in his foster home, but mostly just loves carrying them around in his mouth - very cute!  He sleeps soundly on his dog bed overnight and is such a gentleman in the house!

Louey is also great in the car and is so well mannered that he is welcome anywhere. His foster mom and dad are loving having him as a house guest!

Louey can make your dreams come true and you can make his come true as well. This treasure deserves only the best of the best homes out there. And he is well worth it.

Louey is a healthy guy who is neutered, microchpped and up to date on vaccines.

Leo Puppy adopted!

Meet Leo Puppy, a darling, adorable purebred male Lab puppy of just 5 months of age. This Labbie youngster  is a happy boy, who is the wiggliest, sweetest and cutest pup around. This little guy will wrap you around his paws and steel you heart in seconds.

Leo came to us from his owners who could no longer care for him.  We were delighted to take this boy in and help him find his forever home.  His foster mom loves having him around and says he is just a joy.

Leo is just a youngster at 5 months. He is 45 lbs and will probably grow to be about 75-80 lbs as an adult. For now, this little man is just a pup who wants to have fun, play, sleep a lot, and chew everything in sight.

Leo will need a puppy approved home - a family where someone is home much of the time for the next couple of months and where he will get the patience and training all young Lab puppies need.

His new home will need to be completely puppy proofed for Leo's safety as well as the safety of your shoes, cell phones, remote controls, and everything else little Lab puppies love to play with. He is learning what toys are his so he will need lots and lots of toys to play with to keep him busy.

His new home will want to have a crate to keep Leo safely confined when they cannot keep an eye on him and to continue his potty training although he is already housebroken. But hey, puppies make mistakes, so positive potty reinforcement is necessary including using a crate and praising when he does his potty outside.  Leo is already completely crate trained and sleeps in his crate at night without making a peep.

Leo will need lots of doggie socialization and play time with other dogs. He will also need a puppy obedience class. The good news, is at his age, he is already completely vaccinated, so he can begin his public socialization immediately!

Leo is just a joy and a whole lot of Labby fun. But no matter how adorable this puppy is, he will grow into a big wiggly and playful Lab in no time so families need to consider the puppy commitment and the lifelong commitment before considering adopting this guy. He is a happy, playful, goofy puppy who will bring lots of happiness to any family.

Leo is completely vaccinated.  His new owners will need to have him neutered around 9 months of age and then provide us with a neuter certificate per our adoption contract.

Heath Puppy adopted!

Heath Puppy is a Lab mix baby born January 1st.  He is black with just a few white hairs on his chest and his paws. He is a typical happy, playful boy. 

Health is one of the puppies from Buttercup, a Fox Red purebred Labrador rescued from a kill shelter just days before she gave birth.  Luckily the puppies were be born in a safe and clean foster home.  Buttercup was a perfect mommy and took great care of her babies and puppies have remained together in foster and are healthy and happy.
 
Heath will be ready to go to his new home on February 22nd at 8 weeks.  He will have had his first set of vaccines and have been dewormed.  His adopting family will be responsible for his 2nd and 3rd round of vaccines at 12 and 16 weeks of age to ensure he is fully vaccinated.  Until that time, no dog parks or walking in public places for this boy.  Heath must be neutered at 6 months of age at his new owners expense.
 
Puppies require lots of attention so only families that are home more often will be considered.  Puppies cannot be left alone all day at home while you are at work.  Families must puppy proof their home to ensure a curious puppy cannot get into something unsafe or chew the wrong things.  Those interested must complete an application to adopt and have a home visit to get approved to adopt a puppy.
 
Heath's adoption fee is $375 plus an additional $150 neuter deposit.

Harper Girl adopted!

Meet Harper, a lovely, mellow purebred female Labrador Retriever. She is a pretty chocolate girl wtih burnt sugar eyes and is on the petite side at about 60 lbs.

Harper is about 6 years old. She is a very easy going Labrador and very well behaved. She is wonderful in the house, car, yard, park, and on the trails. She gets along with other dogs and so far has ignored cats she has met. Overall Harper is just a wonderful companion.

Harper came to us from a Los Angeles kill shelter. When we found her she had bi-lateral ear and eye infections, a skin infection, fleas, and still required a spay surgery. She was clearly an outside dog before coming to us as evidenced by her sun bleach coat, and pressure sores on her hocks and elbows from concrete. She made it clear she was never in a home before but after a day she became comfortable which is pretty great considering her past.

Harper loves to bite at the water from the hose and she enjoyed her bath telling us she does like water. Though we doubt she's ever been in a pool or the ocean, we are pretty sure she will be a quick study with both.

Harper is a medium energy girl. She loves her walks and will do a good 2-3 miles walk if you like. But she is also a chill indoor dog who will lay around with you on a lazy Sunday afternoon while you watch golf or football.

Harper is smart. In her short time in foster she has learned sit, shake, wait, how to use the doggie door, and how to jump into and out of the car. She has also done well with her leash training though she does pull quite hard on her leash in the beginning of a walk falling into pace with you as time goes on.

We think Harper will do well with a gentle leader on her leash or simply on her martigale collar with corrections on pulls. She meets other dogs nicely and has done several "pack" walks with 8 or more other dogs.

Harper uses the doggie door to go potty. She has not had one potty accident in her foster home. Granted she was taken out every hour the first day, but once she saw where to go and how to go out, that was all it took.

Harper loves her food and is food motivated. She can also counter surf and table surf so no counters filled with food, bread, crackers, etc. Clear counters should be par for the course in a Labrador home but it bears mentioning again.

Harper will do great wtih kids over age 7. She will do well with another friendly canine companion too. She is not super playful and doesn't seem to take to toys although toys are so new to her life that she may enjoy them as she gets more exposure.

She is very beautiful and has lots of "looks" ranging from a smiling wiggler to a sad orphan face that will melt your heart. She loves to give you her paw and likes to be close by. She is a really good girl and a wonderful home companion.

Harper is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, current on flea control, wormed, on medication for her ears and will be spay on Monday the 24th. She is available to meet approved families (those who have completed their in home interviews). She can go to her new home directly after her spay provided her new family agrees to keep her ecollar on.

Gage adopted!

Meet Gage, about the most gorgeous English bench bred Labrador Retriever we have seen in a long while.

This 2 year old youngster is a calm easy going boy for being so young. But he loves playing too. He's a nice mix of fun guy and chill guy and he's one gorgeous kid.

Gage has a magnificent, thick, raven-black coat,  a beautiful, big blocky head; a fat otter tail and huge paws.  He has a muscular body and at 80lbs there is not an ounce of fat on him. He's really just perfect and possibly show quality.

Gage's hazel eyes will take your breath away. This 2 year old is too handsome for words!! More than that, he is so very loving.

Gage was a stray who ended up a local shelter. We feel so lucky to have him.  All of our volunteers are smitten with Gage and as usual we find ourselves amazed he ended up incarcerated!!!!

At only 2 years, this youngster would love more training.  He is smart and enthusiastic to please.  He stands on his hind legs when excited, not jumping on you just standing up.  He knows sit and shake.  We think he will excel in basic obedience and move on quickly to canine good citizen!

His house manner are perfect.  He settles beautifully inside.  At his foster home he waits at the open back door not coming inside until invited.  His foster mom did not teach him this.  It is cute, but no need to be invited into your own home. 

He is happy to lie in his dog bed and watch your coming and goings.   He is house broken and not a chewer.   

Gage loves his walks and does pull on the leash. It's clear that he was not trained all that well on leash manners.  This will be an easy fix with routine and reminders especially since Gage really wants to keep you happy. He will do best with either a pinch collar or a Gentle Leader.

So far, Gage shows little interest in playing fetch, but we are sure he would love hikes, dog park and trips to the beach.   He may take up Fetch in the future. He does love playing Tug-O-War with his foster Lab brother who is a 7 month old male Labrador puppy.

Gage is real lover boy he snuggles in close and gives kisses.  He is big but he is very gentle.  He is calm when taking treats and does so very softly.    

Gage loves other dogs and will do fine with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only.  Gage has not been tested with cats so no cats for gage.

Gage is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and ready to fall in love with you.

Nunzio adopted!

Meet Nunzio, a 7 month old, purebred black Male Labrador who is a happy, playful pup! He's not quite at his full size at 55 pounds and should grow to be a 75 pound adult. He has a gorgeous coat and has lovely temperament.
 
Nunzio came to us from his owner who could no longer keep him.  He was an outdoor dog until now, so we were lucky enough to get this boy so he can become a true family member in a forever home!

Nunzio has a sweet, playful temperament and gets along beautifully with other dogs. He is currently fostered with 2 Labs and 2 small chihuahuas and he does great with all of them!

A typical puppy, Nunzio loves toys, dog bones, soft squeaky toys and more. His new family must ensure Nunzio has wonderful toys to play with.  He may still chew the wrong items so a puppy proofed home is in order.  He correctswell and enjoys approved chew toys!

Nunzio medium energy. He is playful and he settles beautifully in the house after exercise. As he matures he'll be a medium energy boy. He is crate trained and housebroken.  He will need to be watched at in his new home and may have a potty accident initially. 

Nunzio would do best in a home committed to some training.  He would love a nice obedience course so he can bond with his new owner.  He loves treats and is food motivated. He would love a family who enjoys training a young pup and all the joy it brings.
 
Nunzio is a slightly shy - still learning the outside world and what living in a home has to offer him.  So sometimes he can be fearful of unknown noises or objects.  He is learning all these things are normal and not harmful and would love a family that will give him some patience and time to come out of his shell a bit.

Nunzio will do best in a home with another friendly canine companion to play with or in a home where someone is home much of the time for now, since he is still a young Lab.

Nunzio loves affection from his humans and will sit up next to you for pets and love!  He is a sweet boy who will give you kisses back and so much love in return. Daily exercise and socialization are a must as he will not do well left alone in a back yard all day.
 
Nunzio is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.

Allie adopted!

Meet Allie, our newest darling girl, an adorable English black Lab! Allie is approximately 2 - 3 years old, a petite, chunky purebred, with coal black fur, and a gorgeous blocky head in the English Bred Lab style.

Allie came to us from the shelter,where she was picked up as a stray, and, then unbelieveably, no one ever came to claim her. The day Allie was scooped up by an Indilab volunteer was the best day of her life, and the beginning of a life that she deserves- to be treasured by her family!

At the shelter Allie was spayed, and is loving the nurturing and attention her foster family is giving her.

Allie is an absolutely sweet and playful little girl, gets along perfectly with the two dogs she is fostered with - lab sister and golden retriever brother, in addition to her humans. Allie is wonderful with the family's two cats- she is so easy going. Allie would be a great lab for a family looking for one who will leave the family cats in peace!

You will often find Allie carrying a soft toy around in her mouth, and loves to chase around the yard trying to get the foster sibs to play chase or keep away. She is mellow and can hang out too.

Allie would love to swim in a pool or ocean, as she has shown tons of interest in her foster family's pool, and the dogs swimming in it.

Allie is a quick learner, followimg the lead of her canine companions, and wanting to please her people. Allie follows her foster mom or dad around the house and garden, wanting to keep her people in sight, and this is to be expected from a lab who has recently lost her home and her past family. Even in the short time she has been fostered, Allie has become quite relaxed in this new environment.

Allie is housetrained and knows her commands of sit and shake. She takes treats ever so gently and eats near her foster siblings without any food issues.

Allie would do great with almost any family so long as they have the love to give. She would love another friendly and playful canine companion.

Allie would not do well with her family gone for long hours at a time while she sits in a yard. She would be perfect for a work or stay at home mom or dad, a great home companion, and she deserves a family that will include her in their daily activites, and in going on outings, such as trips to the park, walks, the beach, and going on errands in the car. Allie is great just chillin' out with you while you work on the computer, or will get up on the couch and snuggle with you if invited, which she just adores!

Allie walks nicely by her person's side. She loves to go for walks and to smell all the great scents. She certainly can take two or three short walks a day, and is building up endurance for longer walks.

Allie is a sweet and darling English lab, so happy and so loving, and is waiting for her forever family! Will that be you?

Carl Lee adopted!

Meet Carl Lee, a super sweet, adorable purebred male Labrador of 4-5 years.

This cuddle bear is the sweetest, calmest, and most lovely boy ever. He's also a perfect size at about 70 pounds.  His coat is super soft and he loves nothing more than to hang out next to you for love and affection.  He may even crawl onto your lap if you let him.

Carl Lee is great with other dogs. He is a submissive boy who loves other dogs. He loves his walks and does fine with a moderate walk or two each day. He is a medium to low energy level dog who doesn't need a ton of exercise but still is a playful boy who can do a nice hike if you want to. So he's the perfect mix of energy, playfulness, and mellow, calmness.

Carl Lee is pretty good on the leash and passes other dogs nicely. He can tend to pull on the leash in the beginning of his walk but does great after just a little bit. This easy going boy is just a joy. His calm nature and happy personality make him a wonderful boy to have around.

Carl Lee came to us when his owners could no longer keep him.  Lucky for this boy, he came to the IndiLab family and will soon have a loving forever home he so deserves!

Carl Lee  will do best in a home with another doggie.  He is most comfortable with another dog around and since he is so good around all other dogs, any doggie companion will work for him.  This boy will also do fine with children though any Lab can knock a toddler over without meaning to.

Carl Lee is not a chewer and is non destructive when left.  He doesn't show much interest in toys or dog bones at this time, perhaps he just has never known how great they are.
 
Carl Lee is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Ash Puppy adopted!

Ash Puppy is a Lab mix baby born on January 1st.  Ash black with a small white patch on his chest and a spot on his chin.  He is a typical happy, playful boy. 

Ash is one of the puppies from Buttercup, a Fox Red purebred Labrador rescued from a kill shelter days before she gave birth.  Luckily for Buttercup and her pups, we rescued her just in time so the puppies could be born in a safe and clean foster home.  Buttercup was a perfect mommy and took great care of her puppies and all puppies have remained together in foster and are healthy and happy.
 
Ash will be ready to go to his new home on February 22nd when he is 8 weeks old.  He will have had his first set of vaccines and have been dewormed.  His adopting family will be responsible for his 2nd and 3rd round of vaccines at 12 and 16 weeks of age to ensure he is fully vaccinated.  Until that time, no dog parks or walking in public places for this boy.  Ash must be neutered at 6 months of age at his new owners expense.
 
Puppies require lots of attention so only families that are home more often will be considered.  Puppies cannot be left alone all day at home while you are at work.  Families must puppy proof their home to ensure their curious puppy cannot get into something unsafe or chew on the wrong things.  Those interested must complete an application and have a home visit to get approved to adopt a puppy.
 
Ash's adoption fee is $375 plus an additional $150 neuter deposit.

Teller adopted!

Meet Teller, a goofy, absolutely adorable, purebred chocolate Labrador. He's about 2 years old, and just a darling boy with beautiful caramel eyes.

Teller has a soft lighter chocolate coat and a giant blocky head which we are all swooning over. He has the standard otter tail and the gorgeous Labrador look we adore.

He's a larger Labrador with an equally large heart. Thos looking for a petite dog need not apply!  His foster mom says he is a lot of fun and he is the kind of dog that loves everyone.

Teller is a young boy at only 2 years. We think someone bought him from a breeder, took him home, and once he was full grown, relinquished him to the yard without enough attention. He is just learning his commands with us and getting some leash skills.

Teller tends to pull on the leash when walked and is learning to walk nicely. He walks beautifully on a pinch collar and his new family really should have one. He may like a gentle leader but we do find wtih this Labs that most perfer a pinch collar to the gentle leader.

Teller loves to give you his paw and gaze into your eyes. You would think you were the best thing in the world because he sure thinks you are! If you need some self-esteem, spend a few minutes with Teller!

A young Labrador with little attention equals a new foster dog who tends to jump on you and try to get your attention all the time. He is learning not to jump on his people and it will be an easy fix. Because of his young age and Labrador size, we prefer no toddlers for this boy. Not just because they could be knocked over unintentionally, but because we would like to see this gorgeous young purebred adolescent get lots of attention and that is harder when a family has little ones.

Teller is good with other dogs and even is good with little dogs! He is fostered with two Labradors and a small pug.

Teller will not be a good candidate for homes with cats. He is currently fostered with cats and although he doesn't chase them, he does bark at them. He may end up just fine in the future but we would rather be safe and place him in a kitty-free home.

He will love someone who dogs lots of walks or dog park or even dog beach and will be fine with another friendly canine or as your one and only.

Teller is a young Lab. He will need leash work, manners, perhaps obedience classes, attention, patience and of course love. He is not a high energy dog but he does have some stuff to learn.

Teller is a beautiful healthy kid. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and he is microchipped. He is one true prize for the luckiest loving home.

Buttercup Mama adopted!

Meet Buttercup, a gorgeous, true fox red, 3-year old purebred Labrador Retriever female with the most darling personality.  This medium size, medium energy girl has eyes of gold and a heart to match that will make you melt!

Buttercup came to us several weeks ago just before she gave birth to a litter of adorable puppies.  She was the best Christmas gift we could imagine!  Now that the puppies are weaned, she is available to be adopted by a lucky family.  Her foster mom absolutely adores her and wants to make sure she goes to the most loving home.

Buttercup loves her walks and does so nicely on leash.  She passes other dogs perfectly and likes to greet all the people.  What a charmer.  She is wonderful with other dogs.  If another dog greets her, she'll politely give the dog a sniff.  

As lovely as she is with other dogs, Buttercup really prefers to be your one and only. In the home she is the queen bee and she wants all the attention. She will do best as an only and can still have lots of doggie friends!

Buttercup is completely housebroken and a good girl in the house.  She knows "sit" and "come".  She is mellow yet playful.  She loves her soft toys and ropes and really enjoys playing fetch.  But her favorite things are belly rubs and snuggling.  She is such an affectionate girl!

Buttercup just loves to be by her person's side, so we recommend a family where someone is home most of the time.  Though she is great with other dogs, she loves to be the center of attention, so as we mentioned, we prefer for her to be your one and only.  She is gentle and great with kids but we recommend a family with children 5 and over because she is a playful girl. 

Buttercup seems fine with cats and has ignored the cats she has met so we think she is a candidate for a kitty home too.

Buttercup is healthy, spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. 

Poppy Puppy adopted!

Poppy Puppy is a Lab Mix puppy who was born on January 1st.  She is black with brown "splashing" on her paws and face.  She is a typical happy, playful Girl.

Nate Lin adopted!

Meet Nate Lin, a 2-3 - year old, purebred male Labrador with a  cream coat and a super cute face.

Nate Lin is smaller to medium-sized handsome Labrador with a very puppy-like demeanor. He has a lovely coat and is at the perfect weight. He's a fun boy and has such a good heart. Everyone loves Nate!
 
Nate lived in Taipai, Taiwan and was taken in by one of our volunteers there.  He probably never had a great life and never got the attention he deserves. It's so wonderful how loving he is and what a great companion he makes. Nate came to us here in Los Angeles and is currently doing beautifully with he foster mom and dad and a foster Golden Retriever brother.
 
Nate Lin is perfectly potty trained which is very nice. We think he will do well in a home with consistent exercise because he is a young Labrador and has the medium energy one would expect. He will need his daily walks, dog park, dog beach, and other fun activities.

Nate loves to play and really enjoys training and learning new things! He will fetch and return the ball, knows sit,  and takes treats very gently from your hand. He is learning his commands and has nice house manners.

Nate Lin still pulls a bit on the leash but is a fast learner and corrects easily. He loves his toys and can entertain himself for quite a while with them.

Nate is dog friendly and enjoys living with his large Golden Retriever male foster brother, but he really loves his human companions and will follow you around for company. He has excellent eye contact with his humans!
 
Nate is very sweet and equally curious. He will need a savvy dog owner to bring out all of his best qualities!

Nate will do well alone or with another friendly canine companion for play and/or company. He will do fine with children over age 7 as he is a playful boy. Nate is untested with cats so no kitty homes for this Labby boy.

Nate is up to date on vaccines, neutered, microchipped, wormed, and current on heartworm and flea medication.

Shaggy Bear adopted!

Meet Shaggy Bear, a delightful 3-4 year old yellow purebred male Labrador. Shaggy Bear is an English bench bred stunner which very nice comformation, a gorgeous head, otter tail, and darling round cat-like paws. He is just beautiful.

Shaggy Bear came to us when he lost his home through no fault of his own. His owner wanted to ensure that the best home be found for this angel so she contacted us. We knew straight away we would have no trouble find this gorgeous purebred Labrador a fur-ever home.

Shaggy is a very calm, easy going, typical English Labrador. He loves to waddle and wag, smile, carry toys, swim, and in general just be adorable. He's pretty much everything we love about our breed and he doesn't deviate one smidge from the standard. He is a typical happy, wiggly, stocky, low-key boy.

Shaggy loves his walks and especially likes to carry his own leash. He's a low key fella who needs about 45 minutes to an hour a day of exercise. He's on the lower energy side for a Lab and he is extremely good in the house, car, and in public.

Shaggy wants to be with his person. He would love to sleep in bed with you if you don't mind. He knows "sit" and "down" and will happily retrieve a stuffed toy if he's in the mood for it. He's the kind of dog you can take absolutely anywhere.

Shaggy Bear loves to swim. He would love a home that has a pool or where he will get to do pool and beach visits. He'll do find with children over age 7 and he will do fine with another female Lab or as a one and only snuggle buddy.

Bear has not been tested with cats, so no kitties for this boy.

He does best on a grain free high end food as he is allergic to corn and wheat as are many other Labs.  No cheap food for this Lab.

Shaggy Bear is neutered, up to date on vaccines and ready to find a new furever home to call his own.

Henderson adopted

Meet Henderson, a beautiful white, light cream, purebred Labrador of about 6-7 years of age and a heart of gold.

Henderson was found on the street in horrible shape. He was covered in fleas and the tips of both ears were eaten away by flies and maggots. He was underweight, has bilateral ear infections, and a nasty wound on his foot. Someone neglected him horribly and it was very difficult to imagine how anyone could allow a dog this sweet and this gorgeous to be in this shape. We were horrified.

Henderson was taken to the animal control section of the police station in his area and after 10 days impounded, we finally were able to bail him out - and not a moment too soon.

Henderson was still covered in fleas and his ears has become worse. Thanks to our wonderful vet, he immediately was treated for the ears both inside and outside, we ran his bloodwork, did urinalysis, and in just a day or two he will be neutered, have a dental cleaning and have a fatty lipoma removed. Henderson has hit the jackpot with Indi Lab Rescue and we are sure happy to have this angel in our care.

Henderson is a wonderful companion dog. He is fairly calm but loves his leash walks. He is very good with other dogs and is fostered with 5 other labs - male and female - and is wonderful with them all.

Henderson rides beautifully in the car and enjoys it. He enjoys walks on the beach too. We think he would love hikes!

This angel is a good boy in the house and learned to use the doggie door straight away after only a few lessons! He never even marked in his foster home even though he arrived as an intact male. He is completely housebroken!

Henderson is a dainty eater and he seems to like his treats more than his actual food. He will sit nicely for his treats and take them gently. He eats his food slowly so far but we think he has been surviving on junk and human leftovers so getting him on a healthy doggie diet is our new goal.

Henderson is a beautiful dog and people will stop to pet him and say hello. He passes other dogs nicely and wants to say hello to them too! He doesn't pull much on leash but can at times so a quick correction is all that is needed.

Henderson will come to his new home neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, current on flea medication, wormed, with a dental cleaning complete.

Henderson will do nicely with another friendly and even playful canine companion. He is mostly disinterested in cats so may be a good choice for homes with kitties although any dog may chase a cat now and then.

He will be fine with children but we prefer children over age 8 because little ones requires too much care and time and we would like our boy to have a lot of attention.

Murray adopted!

Meet Murray, the most adorable Golden Retriever around! This 4 year old gorgeous purebred is a great petite size too at only 60 lbs.

Murray has almost all great qualityies. He is affectionate, calm, obedient and loving. He is exceptionally gentle with all humans and a very good boy in the house. He wants to please and he hangs on your every word and action. He is all about the love! And did we mention that he is drop dead gorgeous?

He is also good with dogs most of the time but he has some challenges on the leash and can be defensive toward other dogs he doesn't know who approach him. He is easily corrected and with some training with a qualified trainer, he will be fine in no time.

Previously, Murray had been living with a baby and we think his walking along the stroller protecting the baby may have taught him to be protective while on leash. Some time, conditioning, and positive reinforcement will help him get over this since he is basically a dog who likes other dogs quite a bit once he meets them.

In his foster homes he has done well with the dogs, but out on the leash, he has a few challenges to overcome. Murry makes up for this issue by being absolutely perfect in every other way.

Murray loves to go in the car and will hang out calmly while you run your errands. He loves to be with his person. He doesn't pull much on the leash and he loves his walks.

Murray is completely housebroken and trustworthy in the house. He is not destructive and is not a chewer, digger, or barker. He doesn't even counter surf! He does not need a crate and will happily sleep by your side on his doggie bed until morning.

Murray is exceptionally gentle and sweet with babies, toddlers, elderly people and all others. He would be a wonderful therapy dog. He loves to give his paw and be pet and held.

Murray will do best with a strong leader who wll be assertive with him when he is on the leash and sees other dogs. He will do best with a bit of training. He will do fine with another friendly canine who is not dominant and is well balanced - especially a nice female. He is not good with cats and not especially fond of smaller dogs so not little pocket dogs or kitties for Murray.

Murray is healthy, neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and currently flea control.

Lily Lin adopted!

Ni Hao! My name is Lily Lin and that is how I say hello where I used to live in Taiwan. I was rescued there and came to Indilabrescue to find a furever family. I am learning English very quickly and I really like the food here. I am a yellow petite sweetheart with big, beautiful, expression filled eyes and I want to live with a nice family who will love me and take me on walks. If you want to be my forever parent, please call and I can set up a meeting to meet you. I know you will love me at first sight. My foster Dad says I can only go if I get the very best loving family.


Lily is a gorgeous 4-year-old cutie pie. She's a nicely sized female at about 55 lbs and she has a beautiful face, petite paws, otter tail and a nice blocky head.



This girl is sweet and mellow and easy going. She is really smart - learning her commands of "sit" and “stay” and to go in the backyard.  She's a great girl in the house, too. And she rides beautifully in the car - even sitting right next to her other lab brothers. She cannot wait to jump in and go to the dog park.

Lilly loves to chase a ball in the yard. She eagerly explores and smells all the new scents at the dog park or in the backyard at her foster home. She loves to lie on one of the three doggie beds in her foster home.


It's quite hard to imagine such a sweet angel on the streets in Taiwan but she was rescued as a stray and no one came for her. We brought her to Los Angeles, got her to the vet for her exam, and took her on home for fostering.



This girl will do great with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only. She gets on beautifully with her two older energetic brother labs and is friendly with other dogs at the dog park. She enjoys the park by mushing the balls underfoot and exploring the area; she would do great on hikes and jogs. She is a medium energy girl with extra energy in the mornings and loves a walk any time of day.



Lily is pretty good on the leash although she can pull at times. She corrects easily and wants to please. 

Lily is a snuggle bunny and loves her person or people and likes to be close. She loves to be petted and will lick your hands and face to give you kisses. She will happily sleep on her own bed all night but really wants to come into your bedroom and snuggle with you. She loves having her belly rubbed and giving kisses to her foster dad.


Lily shows strong interest in cats on her walks so no kitties for her at this time.

We think she will do fine with kids over age 6 too.

Lily is a healthy girl and is microchipped, spayed, up to date on vaccines, and current on flea control.

Botti adopted!

Beautiful Botti! Meet one of the most handsome, beautiful, gorgeous chunks of bench bred Labbies around. This stunning, beautifully bred big English Lab is as good as they get.

Botti is a 6 year old male Labrador Retriever with a fabulous temperament. He is on the larger side and has a beautiful block head, otter tail, brown eyes, and very nice comformation. He's purdy alright and he's a very, very nice dog.

Botti came to us from a Los Angeles shelter where he was already in danger. Hard to imagine a dog this stunning would not be snatched up quick, but in a shelter environment, it can be hard to see a black dog in a kennel among all the other lighter colored dogs. People often miss them - even we miss them sometimes! Obviously this is one of the most beautiful Labradors around as we quickly realized the second we got him out of his dark dingy kennel.

Botti is a doll. He has medium energy and loves his walks, balls, retrieving, carrying toys and talking to you. He's a wonderful dog on walks which he loves but he's also a nice respectful boy in the house which is wonderful too.

Botti is a very large Labrador Retreiver. He's a big boy but he is also a gentle boy which is nice. For someone who worries about having a large dog, here is your chance to have a big boy who's size is adjusted by his fabulous manners and temperament. He's a wonderful kid.

Botti is a show stopper. Whether walking him or sitting on the law, everyone will stop and ask about him. He's that handsome. He reminds us of the classic black Lab in paintings always seen with a pheasant in his soft mouth. He's the classic Labrador Retreiver in every way.

Botti is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. He will love to be your one and only or with another friendly canine. But we prefer a home where he is not left outside in a yard all day. His coat shows signs of sun bleaching from living outside in his past and we  already promised him never again. By the way, sunbleaching is temporary so his beautiful coat is only going to get more beautiful now that he's an indoor beloved boy.

Botti is untested with cats so not cats for him. And no children under age 7 as he is a big boy and could knock a toddler down without meaning to.

Barkley adoption pending!

Meet Barkley, an adorable, yellow Labrador Retriever boy!  He is 5 years old and a perfect petite size at only 50 lbs. This boy is all retriever with his boxy head, otter tail, and stout composition, but because of his slightly feathered tail and a bit of cream on his face, we think he might be mixed with Golden Retriever.  He is just so handsome!

Barkley came to us from a family with a small child.  Like a typical Retriever, he would retrieve the treats right out of the child's hand.  Instead of teaching him not to do that, they decided to give him to us to find him a new home.  And we are glad they did because Barkley is the perfect little gentleman!  His foster mom has just fallen in love with him and wants only the best, most loving forever home for him.

Barkley is 100% housebroken and has beautiful house manners.  He knows "sit" and "stay" and will sit for meal time and when it's time to put the leash on.  He also doesn't dart out the door when it's time for a walk.  Inside, he will lay at your feet and would prefer a good belly rub over toys.  He will be interested in whatever you're cooking or eating, but if you just ignore his stares he will give up and walk away.  It's important not to leave food lying around where he can reach it, but the good thing is because he's so short he probably can't reach the counters to surf!  

Barkley loves his walks and meeting new dogs and people while out and about.  He walks beautifully on leash and passes other dogs very nicely, stopping to circle and sniff and then moving on his way.  He also enjoys car rides.  He hops right in and sticks his head out the window.  He would love to go for road trips and to the beach and the dog park.

Barkley is wonderful with other dogs and although he is quite the cuddler at times, he also has a really nice independent nature. He will do nicely with children over 12 years old.  He likes to chase cats, so no homes with kitties for this cutie.

Barkley is healthy, neutered and up to date on vaccines.

If you feel this sweet boy is for you and have been approved to adopt, please email emmycastlen@gmail.com

Tobias adopted!

Meet Tobias, an adorable English yellow Labrador male. This darling 7 year kid is a fox red dudley and boy is he gorgeous.

Toby is a dog who smiles constanly, wiggles and wags, and is just a joy. He's a great walking buddy, car-riding buddy and best friend.

Tobias is a wonderful dog. His former owner didn't want a dog any longer so he let the gate open. Animal control picked up Toby and took him to the shelter. Because originally Tobias was adoped by his owners mother, she was called. Lucky for Tobias and us, she actually bailed him out of the shelter and turned him over to our rescue which was the decent thing to do given that she didn't want him either.

Tobias came to us with a large papaloma tumor in his eye. We promptly had it removed and he looks just beautiful. It was causing him a lot of irritation and no one had ever taken care of it.

Toby is a great dog. He is a mellow, easy going fella who loves being with his person. He's great with other dogs and does beautifully with the female pit bull mix he is fostered with. At firt Toby though he could hump her, but she set him straight and that was that. Now they are best buddies.

Tobias has spent most of his life alone in a back yard with no attention. It's no wonder then that he really wants a home where someone is around most of the time or where he can go with you to work. He will not do well left alone all day in a yard and would be horribly unhappy.

Toby will do great with another friendly canine companion. He also will do nicely with cats as he seems pretty disinterested in the kitties he has met. He can be your one and only if he's not left alone all day too.

Toby is a healthy guy. He has good bloodwork and a stamp of approval from our vet. He's a playful boy who settles down easily and just wants to be where you are.

Tobias doesn't like being isolated in a crate or kennel and will bark to get out. He also dislikes being locked outside in a yard with no inside access. And frankly there is no reason he should ever be denied inside access as he is really a good boy!

We think he'll do find with older children and he is just such a love bug that he will make the best fur-ever companion.

Carra adopted!

Meet Carra, a 2-3 year old female black Labrador Retriever.  This girl is a beautiful English, Bench Bred girl at a perfect size of about 75 pounds.

At only 2-3 years, this doll baby is as close to perfect as you can get. She is calm and mellow indoors, loves to play outside, loves all other dogs, and of course all people.  In fact, Carra even loves the cats in her foster home and she is proven to be good with horses, goats, chickens and more!  This girl would be a perfect choice for a family with cats and other animals.

Carra enjoys playing with her doggie brothers and sisters - both big and small.  She also enjoys playing fetch and loves the water too!  She would enjoy trips to dog beach or swimming in the pool if you happen to have one.

Carra is a pretty special dog with superior temperament. She is a happy girl and submissive to people and other dogs. No matter what you do, Carra goes with the flow and this makes her a wonderfully easy girl to be with.

Carra came to us from a local high kill shelter where she we saw her and knew she didn't belong.  No owner ever came to claim her so we scooped her up and started her on her new life in her foster home with her IndiLab family.

Carra is a medium energy girl who settles beautifully in the house. She is completely housebroken.  She enjoys the toys in her foster home and of course as a young dog, she would love some toys and bones in her new home!

Carra will do best with a family that wants a younger dog to play with, take on hikes, daily walks and even trips to dog park.  She would love a family that will take her out to do a lot of fun things. She will do great with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only.

Carra is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Scout adopted!

Meet Scout, a 7 month old, chunky, chocolate delight. She is deep dark chocolate with burnt sugar eye and has a droopy, jowly look to go with her stocky English frame. She is absolutely delicious in every way.

Scout came to us from her family when they were unable to afford the costly surgery she needed and decided instead to give her up. Scout had an ectopic ureter which meant that one of her ureters leading from one of her kidneys abnormally ended insider her urethra when it should have ended inside her bladder. This caused Scout to be completely incontinent and the surgery to correct this is quite expensive and requires an internal medicine specialist.

Thanks to donations and the hard work of our surgeon Dr. Cohen and the staff at ASEC, we were able to raise the funds to get the needed surgery for Scout and she is recovering well.

Although the ureter was repaired, Scout will still dribble from time to time and is on a medication she takes like a treat to help with this. Her dribbling is slight and infrequent but her new home will need to be ok with this and using diapers now and then when she is in the house to ensure she is neat and clean.

Scout loves her diapers and comes on command to have one put on. She uses machine washable diapers that look adorable on her.

Scout is 7 months old as of Dec 25 Christmas day! She is a chunky show quality Bench Bred Labrador from great lines and is just gorgeous. Her mellow, easy going yet playful temperament is delightful. She is pure joy to her foster mom and gets on beautifully with cats, dogs, kids, and even ducks. She would make an outstanding therapy dog.

Scout is learning all her commands, is housebroken, and walks beautifully on and off leash. She loves her car rides and even has gone to work with her foster mom plenty of times bringing joy to her coworkers. Everyone loves Scout.

Scout is naturally stocky and blocky with round chunky paws, an otter tail, and a beautiful dark chocolate coat to complement her golden eyes. It has been determined scientifically that Scout looks equally adorable in almost every collar her foster mom tries on her and she even looks cute in hats.

Scout sleeps through the night beautifully in her crate. This is handy since she can dribble in her sleep. Her foster mom leaves a fresh townel down in the crate and changes it each day.

She loves her food and wiggles like crazy at meal time. Her foster mom bought her a slow feed bowl which helps her slow down while she eats her kibble. She also takes treats roughtly and quickly so we are working on teaching her restraint and patience when getting a goodie.

Scout has just been spayed and microchipped and is up to date on vaccines as well. She has been wormed, had bloodwork and urinalysis done and is a very healthy little doll baby.

Mack adopted!

Meet Mack - a gorgeous milk chocolate dream!  This boy is a purebred chocolate Lab of about 4 years old.  He has a soft light chocolate brown coat, and is a short, stalky English Lab of about 80 pounds.  He is a happy, goofy boy who brings joy wherever he goes!

Mack came to us from a local high kill shelter where his previous owners turned him in because they were moving.  Lucky for Mack, our volunteer was there the next day, so this sweet boy only had to spend one night in the cold shelter.  

Mack is a goofy, happy, wiggly boy!  He has the trademark Lab tail that can clear a coffee table and a happy smile on his face at all times.  This boy is likely too wiggly for little kids, but we think he would do well with children over age 8.  

Mack is completely housebroken and settles well in the house after his exercise.  He is a true Velcro labbie who will follow you wherever you go.  He sleeps soundly through the night next to your bed too.

Mack is very good with other dogs.  He would do well as an only dog or with a doggie companion.  However, he is an excitable boy at times, so he might be too much for a senior dog companion who prefers a mellow companion.

Mack enjoys playing fetch and loves his doggie toys too!  He walks really well on leash and his foster mom says he is just a pleasure to walk!  This boy would enjoy a more active family where he would get nice long walks, hiking or perhaps even a jog with his owner.  Of course he would love some time playing fetch or at dog park playing with other dogs. 

He is currently about 10 pounds overweight so this regular exercise would help him shed the extra pounds too!

We think Mack would do best in a home where his family is home more often if he is an only dog.  We just don't think Mack would be happy left all alone during the day while his people are all at work.  Of course if he has a doggie companion in his new home, he would do fine while you are at work.  He is a good car rider and would enjoy accompanying you on car trips as well.

Mack knows his commands, but could use some reminders.  He would even do great in a refresher dog obedience class as a way to bond with his new owner while reminding him who's boss :)

Mack is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. 

Red 2 adopted!

Meet Red a delicious purebred chocolate male Labrador. He is 2 years old male in very good shape. He is a medium sized doll baby. 

Red came to us with his brother, a black male Lab named "Gunner" who is also available for adoption. The family who owned them could not longer find the time to care for them and wanted them to find good homes.

Red is a lover!  This youngster gives the best kisses.  He puts his head down & snuggles against his foster mom, like he can’t get close enough.  He also loves to roll over on his back for belly rubs, surely to melt your heart.

Red loves his walks and will race you out the door.  He pulls a little now and again, so his foster mom uses a gentle leader and gets great results. He's a nice walking buddy!

Red knows his basic commands "sit", "lay down", and "stay".  Don’t be shocked if "lay down" turns into him rolling on his back waiting for a belly rub! He is so darn cute, we are pretty sure you’ll happily oblige his request.


Red is a young adolescent. Like most dogs his age, he will benefit from more socialization and training.  He likes other dogs and gets on with most,  but his manners are still under construction! His new owners will want to work more with him on this and we think he'll do a great job.

Red is a very happy Labrador. He will do best with an active owner that will take him to Dog Park and where he will get his good daily exercise and socialization. He likes to have fun. But he is also a calm Lab who settles beautifully in the house. He's the perfect mix of medium energy and fun and easy going.

Red thrives on human interaction. He will do best in a home that has the time for a young Retriever and not somewhere where he will be in a yard alone all day. This is a household companion who wants to be by your side all the time. He really deserves just the best home!

Gunner 3 adopted!

Meet Gunner 3, a very sweet, jet black, purebred male Labrador. He is 2 years old, and he is really quite a beautiful dog.

Gunner came to us with his brother, a chocolate male Lab named "Red" who is also available for adoption. The family who owned them could not longer find the time to care for them and wanted them to find good homes.

The boys are fine together and easy enough to be adopted together. However they are not bonded and are also fine being adopted separately. When we get pairs like this however, we generally do prefer to place them with another dog if you work all day.

This extremely healthy, young Labrador will need his daily exercise and outings as do all Labradors his age. He should do a nice jog or long walk everyday and would love hikes or jogs on the weekends. He is perfect for an active family or person and a great buddy. With the appropriate excercise Gunner settles right down in the house and is such a great buddy.

Remember, at only 2 years old he is really just beginning to be an adult since Labs are puppies for 2 full years - so he cannot be expected to settle nicely without his exercise first!

Gunner loves to retrieve.  A ball is this boy’s favorite toy.  He fetches then drops the ball nicely for you to throw again and he will do this for as long as you care to participate!

Gunner is pretty good on the leash, pulling in the beginning of a walk and then settling into his pace. His foster mom uses a gentle leader and gets great results.  Passing other dogs on the leash is no big deal for this good boy. He's a friendly boy and a great walking partner.

Gunner knows "sit" & "lay down".  He also knows "stay" and is currently working on “staying” for longer periods. He's easy to train and wants to please.  Gunner is food motivated and takes treats gently giving you a super easy way to train him up even more with tricks and such.

Gunner will jump up sometimes when he is excited. This is common in Labrador puppies and adolescents. It's an easy fix with routine and reminders. He is a happy adolescent who will grow into a wonderful canine companion with his continued training, exercise, and commitment. Gunner is a prize.

This cutie is 100% housebroken.  He's a tall boy so counter surfing is easy for him.  Its important his new family does not leave food, bread, avacodos, bananas, and other "couter" foods where he can reach them. All Labs try to counter surf and if they find something making their work worth it, it just reinforces the behavior. It's always best to put all edible items away. 

Gunner rides well in the car.  He jumps right in happy to go anywhere. He's a great car buddy.

Gunner is friendly with other dogs and will do perfectly with another doggie companion - especislly if you are gone all day at work. He will also do fine as an only dog if someone is around most of the time.  He has not been tested with kitties so we will not consider him for homes with cats.

Charlie Chocolate adopted!

Meet Charlie Chocolate, a gorgeous purebred male Chocolate Labrador of about 2 years. This boy is stunning! He is about 75 lbs with a beautiful blocky head, a lovely expression, a gorgeous otter tail and sweet burnt sugar eyes.

This sweet and somewhat timid boy came to us when his owner could no longer keep him.  Poor Charlie had ended up unwanted, in a backyard and luckily his owner found us to help him find a home where he will be a true family member!

Charlie is timid of new things like the car, going in the house, and new people.  His timid nature makes him a pretty gentle boy, who needs a patient and caring family who will help him learn what fun the world has to offer him.
 
Charlie is fabulous with other dogs - he enjoys playing with his foster sisters - dogs both big and small in his foster home.  In fact, he is so good with other dogs, he would love a home with another doggie companion, or one where he can go to dog park or dog beach to play with other dogs often!

Charlie enjoys his doggie toys, especially his nylabone his foster mommy has for him.  He also enjoys playing fetch, but is not obsessive about it.  He is a happy playful boy in the yard, you can tell that is where he is most comfortable!
 
Charlie is a medium energy boy, but is still young at 2 years old so will need good daily exercise like any lab his age.  He is still a bit timid on leash, which makes him a gentle walker who will walk right beside you, which we love!

Although Charlie can be timid at first, he comes around to you pretty quickly with a gentle hand and he is an affectionate boy who loves to give kisses!  He will put his paw up on you for pets and loves affection from loving people.  He is completely housebroken and will come and go through his foster mom's back door all on his own.  He is a little unsure that he is allowed in the house, so sometimes could use some coaxing, but we know this boy will do well once he settles into a new home and understands he is truly part of the family!
 
Charlie will give so much love and happiness to a family that is ready and willing to give him the love, patience and gentle exposure to new things that this boy desires.

Charlie Chocolate is healthy, neutered and up to date on vaccines.

Mo Gold adopted!

Meet Mo Gold, an adorable doll baby of a Golden who is too cute for words. This adorable 2-3 year old boy is sweet, easy going, and loving. A true family dog.

Mo Gold comes to us from a high kill inland shelter where he owners brough him saying they couldn't keep him anymore. We aren't sure why that would be as Mo Gold is such a good boy and so wonderful in the home. Maybe they lost their home or were moving overseas? Maybe there was a death? Maybe they just didn't value him enough. We'll never know exactly what happened with Mo but we know his future will be bright because Mo is a dream.

Mo Gold is a beautifully bred dog. He has a gorgeous silky solf golden coat, a nice blocky head, a beautiful feathered tail and a nice overall conformation. Along with his good looks Mo has a wonderful low key temperament and attitude. He's a genuinely happy dog and he loves the dogs and humans alike in his foster home. Mo is fostereed with 3 other Labradors and 2 human older children. He's a very popular guy in his foster home and you can see why.

Mo Gold is currently a tad chunky and should lose a good 10 lbs. With regular walks, which he loves, along with high quality food, Mo will easily shed the excess flub and be in fabulous shape.

Mo is a good boy in the house and car and extremely friendly. He's a typical Golden Retriever honestly and has all the qualities Golden's are so beloved for.

We think Mo will do fine with children though he is untested around toddlers. Older kids seem to be well liked by Mo.

We think he'll do great with another friendly canine companion or as an only dog but we would prefer he not be an only dog who is left alone all day. He deserves a little more attention after losing his home.

Mo seems very healthy except for an ear infection he is battling and the excess weight which he will easily shed. He's neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Kyara Adopted!

Meet Kyara, a perfectly sweet 5-6 year old female yellow Labrador Retriever. This pretty girl is the easiest going doll and is a wonderful companion.

Kyara came to us from a high kill inland shelter. We spotted her quickly and could see she was very sweet and very afraid. After meeting her and confirming she was indeed a lovely girl, we set about getting her out, groomed, and quickly away to a loving foster home.

Kyara is a calm yet playful, happy Labrador. She wags her tail and smiles all the time and she is absolutely wonderful with other dogs and humans. She has enjoyed playing with puppies and laying calmly with seniors. She really gets on well with them all.

Kyara is a very pretty girl. We think she may have a touch of Golden Retriever in her as she has the typical Golden color and "sugar face" as well as a bit of feathering to her tail. Everyone comments on how sweet and pretty she is.

Kyara is a medium sized girl and medium energy. She loves her walks, park, cuddling, and is great on leash and in the car. She's a fun and easy companion.

Kyara will do nicely with children - over age 7 preferred. She will also do nicely with or without a canine companion.

This darling girl is slightly playful and loves to trott about the yard smiling. She loves to be pet and brushed.

Kyara is up to date on vaccines, microchipped and spayed. She is wormed and current on flea control as well.

Kody adopted!

Introducing Kody.  Kody is a very well-bred,  purebred English black Labrador Retriever.  He has an nice conformation and perfect temperament. Kody is about 5-6 years old and is just completely wonderful in every way.

Kody’s coat is not only super thick and shiny it is also silky soft.  He has a gorgeous blockhead and the sweetest expressions. His tail is fat just like an otters and his paws look like big soft mittens. This is one very handsome Labrador.   They don’t come better looking than Kody.

Good looks are not all this boy has to offer. He is also very smart and wants to please.  He has an easy going personality and looks to his person for direction.  All these qualities make him easy to train. Kody is a little out of practice with his commands but they are coming back to him.  He is just a joy to be with.

Kody came to us after the toddler in his family became allergic. He came to us with his "brother" Bauer. The two boys get on great but do not have to be adopted together as they will do fine apart just as well. They do get along though and if you are looking for a pair just let us know that. Otherwise Kody is available as a single adoption.

Kody is housebroken and nondestructive indoors. He settles quickly in the house, loves his dog bed and will happily watch all your comings & goings from his comfy spot.  

Kody is a medium energy boy who enjoys his walks and playtime too. So whether you want to snuggle up and watch a movie or hike a long trail, this boy is your dog because he is happy doing both!

Kody is just a tad over weight at  80+lbs .   These few lbs will come off quickly once Kody is walked daily.  Kody pulls on the first part of a walk but settles to your pace after the first half-mile.   

He is easy to exercise, as he loves to play fetch.  A ball is this boy’s favorite toy.  In fact he treats most toys as if they are balls , by dropping them at your feet and waiting for you to toss it.  He is quite the athlete jumping and catching balls mid air. He fetches then drops the ball nicely for you to throw again.   He is so happy playing fetch you cannot help but laugh and feel joyous too!

Kody rides great in the car; he jumps in and lies right down.

Kody will do well with another canine companion or as your one and only.  He did live with cats and could be happy with them again. He'll  do well with older children, however he can be mouthy and excited when taking treats. 

Bauer adopted!

Bauer is a darling, purebred, pale-yellow Labrador Retriever male. Bauer is an AKC register Labrador and he is also a very nice boy.

This love bug is 6 years old and still so young and playful! He's a fun boy with a wonderful heart and will make a fine family dog.

Bauer has all the physical attributes we look for in a Labrador.  His tail is nice and thick his head is big and blocky.    His dark eyeliner and silky soft coat make him a showstopper.  But the best thing about Bauer is that you just want to kiss his face all day long.

Bauer came to us with his "brother" companion Kody, after his family’s toddler developed canine allergies. The boys get along great and enjoy each other's company, but they also will do find split apart as they are not dependent on each other. If you think you would like to adopt bother dogs, please let us know. Otherwise Bauer is available for adoption separately.

Bauer's brother Kody is an athlete, and Bauer is more of the lover. Bauer wants nothing more than your attention, snuggles, and rubs.  He would be a lap dog if he could fit on your lap.

Bauer talks to you when you snuggle him. He moans and purrs melting your heart. It is the sweetest thing.  His foster mom is sure he is saying “ I Love You”!!!!

Bauer is a medium energy boy.  He enjoys his walks and play time but also settles nicely in the house and is such a good, good boy.  Bauer is a large Lab and is very gentle. He is currently a tad chunky but. As he gets more exercise into his routine, coupled with moderate amounts of high quality food, he will be at his ideal weight in no time.

Bauer had someone teach him his commands and it's just too darn adorable!  When his foster mom works with him, she can’t stop laughing.  As soon as Bauer sees a treat he sits, shakes & then lies down in a matter of 2 seconds so he can show you he did what you wanted and so he can get that cookie much faster!  He is highly food motivated, has an excellent temperament and working with him is fun.

Bauer rides great and prefers to sit shotgun. He is 100% house broken and nondestructive indoors. This boy is really a best friend who wants to be included.  Bauer is so gentle and so calm indoors but has the energy you want when you go for hikes, dog park, or trips to the beach. 

Bauer is healthy, adorable, neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Audra adopted!


Meet Audra, a happy, wiggly, and sweet purebred AKC yellow female Labrador of 4 years.  Audra is a gorgeous English or Bench Bred Labrador with beautiful black eyeliner around her eyes.  She is short and stalky like a true English Lab should be and weighs about 75 pounds.

Audra is a darling golden yellow purebred with a sweet face and equally sweet disposition. She loves everyone and has a nice playful energy about her.

Audra came to us from her owners who recently had a baby and no longer had the time to care for Audra.  Audra had once been their child, loved and adored, but once they had a baby, Audra sadly became and outside only dog.  She did good with their child, but any wiggly lab can knock down a toddler.  Finally her family realized that it was time to find Audra  new home that could give her the care and love she deserves.

Audra is a medium energy girl who enjoys her walks and playtime, but also settles down very nicely in the house.  She enjoys playing with her 2 year old foster labbie brother and she will also play fetch a bit too.  She does pull a bit on leash, so often is best walked with a pinch collar, but she can be corrected and trained to walk better on leash, now that she is getting walked daily like she should be.

Audra will do great in a home with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only.  She does like to be the queen bee of the household, so a submissive doggie companion would be best for her.  And of course, she would like a lot of attention and love.  She likes to be near her person and would like a home where her people are home more often than not.  She will give you lots of fun labbie kisses too whenever she gets the chance!

Audra is also great with cats!  She is fostered with 2 kitties and does great with both of them.  She would be a good choice for a family with cats.

Audra will need her daily exercise like a couple good walks every day and perhaps a game of fetch in the yard. She is completely housebroken, but like any new dog, will need to be watched at first in her new home while she learns a new routine.  She has nice house manners, and would love to cuddle with you up on the couch or bed if you allow her.

Audra came to us with chronic ear infections, likely due to eating low quality food all her life.  We have had her ears professionally cleaned and treated by our fabulous vet, and she is now on grain free food, which will be really important for continued care.  Labs are very prone to ear infections, so their ears must be cleaned regularly and eating a quality grain free food is always best for all Labradors.  This is such an easy fix!

Audra is a really good girl in the car.  She will hop right in and just lay down to enjoy the ride - quiet as a mouse.  She would love to accompany you on errands, picking up the kids from school and more.

This happy, playful girl is a lovely companion and will bring much joy to that family fortunate enough to adopt her.

Audra is a healthy girl who is up to date on shots, microchipped and spayed.
 
If you would like to add this girl to your home, be sure to complete an application, and then follow up with an email to indilabgirl@gmail.com

Bosco adopted!

Meet Bosco!  Bosco is a darling purebred chocolate male Labrador Retriever with a constant tail wag and a smile on his face always.  This 4 year old boy is the sweetest thing. All he wants is love, love, love.

Bosco's biggest asset is his love of other dogs. He is amazing with them. Loves to go to dog park and gets along with everyone. Everywhere Bosco goes he makes friends.

Bosco is a total velcro Lab like most Labs. He really wants to be right with his person all the time. He loves to be pet and cuddled and would love to sleep at the foot of your bed on a soft doggie pillow.
Bosco came to us from his owners where he had spent the first 4 years of his life.  When his owners had a baby, they found they were no longer able to give the time and attention to Bosco that he deserved.

Bosco is a medium energy boy.  He enjoys trips to dog park, dog beach gets excited whenever you get his leash out to go for a walk!  In fact, he will even put his leash in his mouth and try to walk himself - it's adorable!  Bosco walks really well on leash and rarely pulls, so he is a pleasure to walk and would enjoy a couple nice long walks every day.

Bosco will do best in a home with another friendly canine companion. He prefers it that way. It would be nice if he can have a doggie friend close to his age to play with, but ultimately that's not as important if he can still have trips to dog park or play dates with other doggie friends.

Bosco is completely housebroken and non-destructive when left at home.  He's also a good boy in the car, hopping right in the car and enjoying the ride.
Bosco is a lover and a wiggler - always wagging his tail and wiggling his way towards you for more love and affection.  He also loves to give you kisses to show his affection for you in return!  And Bosco has found his favorite couch in his foster home - he would adore a home where he is allowed to cuddle with you up on the furniture :)

Bosco is great with children, but remember any Lab can knock a toddler down with their trademark labbie wiggle.

Bosco is healthy, neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines.

Canyon adopted!

Meet Canyon, a gorgeous 3-4 year old purebred chocolate Labrador Retriever. This easy going sweet boy is fabulous.

Canyon is a medium energy, medium sized Labrador. He's a great size and has beautiful conformation. He's quite handsome! His chocolate coat is sunburnt from living outdoors and even his tail is so bleached out that it is almost yellow! In no time at all the coat will get back to it's dark chocolate color and shine and he will be even more beautiful than he is and that is saying something because he is really a good looking Labrador.

The coolest thing about Canyon is his temperament and personality. He's an easy going boy with a wonderful happy attitude. He just loves all humans and all dogs. He's wonderful in his foster home with two male Labradors and he really does great at dog park where he has made lots of canine buddies.

Canyon loves his walks and retrieving a ball and he will drop it right at your feet for another toss. He pulls on the leash in the beginning of his walk and then settles in beautfully to your pace. He passes other dogs nicely and just loves everyone.

Canyon is easy going and not hyper. He's not a barker much either and he is wonderful in the car and house even though he's probably never or seldom been in either. His personality and looks are so nice that we are stilll shocked that he was at a shelter to begin with! We can't imagine anyone parting with such a great dog.

Canyon is of perfect weight. He need not lose nor gain anything. His eyes are a pretty burnt suger and he has a nice otter tail and blocky head.

This perfect kid is neutered, up to date on vaccines, flea control and microchipped.

Baby adopted!

This is Baby.  She is one of the sweetest, most loving labs her foster mom has had in a long while.  Baby is a gorgeous, dark chocolate girl.  She is English, meaning she is shorter and stockier, the a fabulous chunky otter tail and a wonderful blocky head. 

We think Baby is about 4 years old.  Her coat couldn't be any glossier.

Baby came to us from a high kill local shelter.  She had a microchip and a harness on that was so small it had made marks in her fur.  Because of the chip, she had to stay in the shelter for 10 days waiting for the owners who never came to get her. .After her 10 day stay, we pulled her from there, had her spayed, and sent her to her foster home.

Baby's foster home includes two other female labbies and a male pug.  She gets along with everyone, playing endlessly with the pug and she gets along beautifull with everyone.

She is a medium energy girl, and will need her walk every day to remain the wonderful girl she is.  Right now she is learning to walk well on leash, and seems to be getting it with just a martingale collar.  A good obedience class will cement her status as a perfect dog.

She settles well into the house, remaining at her foster's feet while relaxing.  She is great with her foster's kids, but a bit active around them, so we recommend children 7 and older for her benefit and theirs. She shows a bit too much interest in her foster's cats, and does bark at them intermittently, so we would be more comfortable for her to find a home with no kitties.

Baby loves her wire crate and she just walks in when asked to sleeping through the night.  Baby has not had an accident in her foster's home, and appears to be potty trained.  She does her "sit", and is doing great learning the rest of her commands. She wants to please.

Baby is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Cowboy adopted!

Meet Cowboy, an adorable chocolate male Labrador who loves everyone - cats, dogs, and all humans!

Cowboy is a 5 year old boy who came to us from a high kill area where he was abandoned. He was in poor shape at the time - covered in fleas and ticks, very long nails, bi-lateral ear infections, overal alopecia, and more.  He was absolutely flithy with a partially embedded collar to boot. He was clearly a dog that was not cared for or loved and certainly had never been inside a home.

After a few weeks, Cowboy has recovered nicely and is a very healthy young man with sparkling eyes and a wonderful and gentle personality. He loves his foster family and they are quite smitten with this very handsome purebred as well.

Cowboy has learned a few commands and how to walk on the leash on heel and he loves doing short jogs with his foster mom. He also enjoys retrieving the ball and will return it and drop it on command.

Cowboy has medium energy and loves his daily outings. He will love a family or person who will give him nice walks or jogs and lots of attention. He wants to be where you are and is not a dog who wants to be left in a yard all day by himself. He is a true companion.

Cowboy is wonderful in the house. He is non-destructive and is not a chewer or barker. He's so nice and clean after his grooming and healing and he smells wonderful and feels so soft!

Cowboy would love a family that will truely treasure him as he deserves. It was abundantly clear to our vet the neglect this dog has suffered and whoever originally owned him did not provide medical treatment as they should have. What a shame. He deserves so much more.

Cowboy does great with big and small dogs and even cats. He's wonderful in the car and house and is a very loving dog.

Cowboy loves his stuffed toys and will grab one when you tell him to "go lay down". He is learning to use a crate and he is loving it. He will now go in on command and sleeps the whole night through.

Cowboy is housebroken too!

This darling larger sized Labrador is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. He is current on flea control too.

Bleu Adopted!

Meet Bleu, the sweetest, darling purebred yellow male lab who loves to be loved.  This 1 year old boy is about 75 pounds and is a lovely combination of playful energy and nice indoor mellowness.  He has the softest buttery light yellow coat and the happiest wiggle!
 
You likely saw Bleu's story on our facebook page.  Bleu came to us from an owner who purchased him from a breeder as a puppy and began training him as a therapy dog.  Sadly, when his owner realized that he was limping and had a problem with his hip, she did nothing to help him and decided she no longer wanted him. 

Thank goodness she contacted us as we quickly took him into our IndiLab family!  We did x-rays and found out Bleu's right hip was completely dislocated. We promptly consulted our best orthopedic surgeons and many thanks to ASEC in West LA, Bleu had surgery to fix his hip!

Bleu is just as happy as ever after his surgery!  He loves every person he meets, and not only has every IndiLab volunteer fallen in love with this boy, but a couple of our beloved vets have also fallen in love. Bleu has one of the best temperaments we have ever seen in a Lab!  He is well on his way to becoming a therapy dog if you wanted.  He takes everything in stride and is not startled by any noise or sound.
 
Blue is a low to medium energy boy.  He enjoys some playtime and likes to play fetch, but after a few throws of the ball, he will come back to his owner and lay down for some love and affection.  He is not a running partner, but would do great on daily walks, shorter hikes, and of course playtime with his new family!
 
Bleu would love a home where his people are home more often than not as he just adores his humans!  He would do great as your one and only or with another doggie companion.  He is just wonderful with every dog he meets, both big and small.
 
In order to keep Bleu's other joints healthy and strong throughout his life, it is important that Bleu remain at a lean 75 pounds.  When you allow a Lab to become overweight, it adds extra strain to their joints.  So a limited diet and regular exercise are important for every Lab, but even more important for Bleu.  It would also be great to start Bleu on a good quality Glucosamine supplement that he can remain on for many years to come.
 
Bleu is completely housebroken and is very mellow and well mannered in the home.  Of course he is still a puppy at 1 year old, so may select the wrong thing to chew on - as would any lab.  So having some fun dog bones and doggie toys in his new home will make him very happy and keep him focused on the right things to chew!
 
Bleu walks very well on leash, pulling at times, but easily corrected.  He meets other people and dogs on walks with ease!  He settles beautifully in the house after his exercise and would even enjoy going to work with you if that was an option for him.

Bleu also loves his car rides and gets excited to go for a ride with you.  He will put his two front paws in for you, and then just looks at you to give him a little boost on his hind end to get in.  Once in the car, he just lays down and enjoys the ride.
 
Bleu loves his crate in his foster home and we strongly recommend that his new home get him a crate.  He will go in all on his own - take a nap or even chew on a toy or a bone.  This is also a great way for him to stay safe when you leave him alone - since lab puppies could chew the wrong thing while you aren't around, crating him is the perfect way to prevent that and he is beautifully crate trained!

Bleu would do very well with children, although he can be a bit mouthy as any young lab puppy.  He is not jumpy, but of course he has his trademark lab wiggle which could knock a toddler down.
 
The family that is lucky enough to adopt this fabulous boy will hit the lottery.  Upon meeting him, you quickly see what we all talk about - just how lovable this boy truly is.

Bleu is neutered, up to date on vaccines and is recovered from his hip surgery and cleared for all forms of exercise.

Mercy Adopted!

Meet Mercy, a sweet, gentle timid girl.  Mercy is a gorgeous 4 year old CKC purebred female black  Labrador. She is a short stocky English or Bench Bred lab of about 70 pounds.  She is beautifully bred and a good looking girl!

Mercy is a beautiful girl with burnt sugar eyes, and a gentle, calm temperment.  She is a submissive and calm girl and is currently on the shy side as she is getting used to people and the outside world after living her life in a backyard and a kennel.
 
Mercy is great around other dogs both big and small. She is fostered with a 2 other female labs and she gets along very well with both of them.  She enjoys her time with other dogs and in fact the other dogs help her to come out of her shell.  She can even be seen playing with her 2 year old foster labbie sister.
 
Mercy likes her walks and walks very well on leash. She rarely pulls and when she does, she is easily corrected.  She also passes other dogs beautifully.
 
Mercy is a low to medium energy girl who will do well with a couple walks a day and some playtime in the yard.  She enjoys playing fetch, but is not obsessive about it at all.  She also enjoys her kiddie pool, so might enjoy a real pool if you have one.  
 
Mercy will do best with a family who will give her time to come out of her shyness but will not baby her.  Her forever family will need to understand that it may take Mercy a couple months to become less timid.  A family that will take her to new places and help introduce her to a world that she has never experienced and can show her how much fun it can be will be great for her.  Riding in the car and meeting new people is all new for Mercy.  She is doing very well getting comfortable in her foster home, but she will take some time to get comfortable with her new family.
 
Mercy is food motivated - what we would expect from a Lab!  So learning to trust you is easy when you have some yummy treats for her.  She takes her treats very gently and is not a mouthy girl at all.  Mercy knows her commands of sit and come.
 
Mercy is completely housebroken and non-destructive when left alone.  We would like to place her in a home with another friendly dog who is well adjusted to the world so she can learn from him/her how many exciting things the world has to offer!  She also learns to trust her people more when she sees another dog enjoy human affection. She has lovely house manners.
 
Mercy does not get on any furniture, and sleeps soundly through the night on her dog bed in the bedroom with you.  

We will not place her with young children as she has had a rough time and is still too shy to be expected to deal with the noise and motion of young children. Children over age 10 will be considered.
 
Mercy is a healthy girl who is up to date on vaccines, spayed and microchipped.

Flossie adopted!

Meet Flossie, a true little lady. Flossie is a beautiful black purebred Labrador of just about 3 years. She is as sweet as can be.

Flossie has the softest, shiniest, glossiest, jet black coat. his girl is the perfect medium size at about 62 lbs.  She is really a glamorous girl and everyone who sees her comments on her beauty.

Flossie was rescued from a very high kill shelter where she showed up as a stray. This poor girl was not feeling herself after being in that scary cold shelter.  She came to us  depressed, and under the weather and sick with an upper respiratory infection she caught there. Her first visit was to our vet for treatment and medication. Now a few weeks later she is really coming to life and it's beautiful to see her so lively and happy.

Flossie can be a little shy but more and more she is gaining confidence. She is so loving and affectionate and is very lady like

Flossie loves all humans and greets people nicely with no jumping. She will greet new people in the house saying "hello" and then find her way back to her bed.  What a good girl. She is so very polite.

Flossie is a medium energy young Labrador. She walks just lovely on the leash - right by your side on heal without pulling. She passes other dogs nicely too.

Flossie loves other dogs and gets excited to meet them. She would love weekend hikes or trips to Dog Park to meet other dogs and to engage in fun activities with her person or family. She is a nice combination of spunk and playfullness outside and calm and loving indoors.

lossie settles nicely in the house and has nice housemanners. She is nondestructive and completely housebroken. She is not that interested in toys but loves to cuddle with you on the couch for morning coffee or a nighttime move.

Flossie is gentle and will do well with children over 6.

Flossie would like to chase cats so we cannot place her in a home with cats. She’ll do great with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only.

Flossie is spayed, up to date on vaccines, microchipped and current on flea control.

Nata Adopted!

Meet sweet Nata, an absolutely darling 6 year old female Labrador who is so pretty, so sweet, we just love her to pieces.

Nata is a very low key, mellow, easy going girl who also loves her walks and cuddles and is very velcro like a white shadow. She's quite special and a true companion dog.

Nata comes to us from our sister rescue in Taiwan. She was a stray dog there and when we first took her in, she needed some time to gain weight and get well. When she was healthy enough we brough her here. While here Nata has been given top of the line veterinary care and has a clean and healthy recommendation from our vet. She is a beautiful girl who is ready to go to a new very lucky fur-ever home.

Nata is excellent in the house. She is not destructive and is a good girl. She doesn't love being alone for super long periods so it would be nice for her to have a companion like another dog if you are gone during the day. She is also very good with kitties and generally non-reactive to them.

Nata likes her toys and will carry them around. She also loves her walks. She gets just short walks as she is so low key but she sure loves them!

Nata is a tiny bit chubby but losing weight. She has some arthritis and is currently on a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory as well as a great glucosamine supplement which help her a lot. She should be on fish oil as well.

Nata is pure joy to have around. She can go to work with you, in the car, to a friends house, and she is always perfect. She would be a wonderful dog to do therapy work with due to her easy going nature and love of all humans.

Nata is completely housebroken as does not get on the furniture. She likes her doggie bed and sleeps the whole night through until morning. Sometimes she snores too!

Nata will do find with children though we do prefer kids over age 7 with our dogs.

She will do best with canine companions who are equally low key and mellow and not annoying puppies that will bother her.

Nata is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and spayed, She also has had a blood panel done and is current on flea control.

Bonnet adoption!

Meet Bonnet, a darling 8-9 month old female Labrador puppy of only 40 lbs. She's a little sweet thing with the most adorable disposition and she is looking for the very best home a girl could want.

Bonnet comes to us from possibly the highest kill shelter in the state. Hard to believe such a doll ended up there - but she did. And lucky for her, our volunteers were made aware of her and got her out to safety immediately.

When we first took in Bonnet, she was suffering from a slight cold. Now she is feeling much better and is being spayed in anticipation of her new fur-ever home!

Bonnet is a typical Labrador puppy. She is curious, adorable, sweet, wiggly, happy, and loves every human and ever dog she meets.

In typical puppy fashion, she is very curious about the cats in her foster home and enjoys chasing them about. Luckily these foster kitties are used to foster dogs and go with the flow, but we really cannot place her with cats unless they are dog savvy and owners understand that puppies WILL chase kitties. It's just too much fun.

Bonnet is a little bit of a thing at 40 or so pounds. She will likely grow into a 60 lb female adult. She has a beautiful buttery colored, soft coat and a pretty face. Her eyes are just beautiful. She loves to be held and pet and adored and she gives that love right back to you.

Bonnet will do best in a home where she will get the standard young Lab dog park trips, daycare visits, dog beach, and lots of fetch and walks and jogs and hikes. She is young and happy and the world is new. She enjoys socializing with dogs and people.

Bonnet will do well in a home where someone is around much of the time - at least in the beginning - and where she will get her basic training, patience, instruction, dedication, and lots of love.

She's a good girl on the leash and in the case and she is a good girl in the house after her play time.

Bonnet will do best with kids over age 7 as she is a puppy and may chew childrens toys, jump, or otherwise be a playful Lab and could knock toddlers down accidentally.

Whoever adopted this princess will be lucky indeed. She is quite specail and lovely and has such a good heart.

Bonnet will come spayed and up to date on vaccines. All you need is the home to provide the love.

If you have been homechecked and approved, and you feel this girl is right for you, please follow up with an email to scartersoo@mac.com

Edison adopted!

Edison is a beautiful shiny purebred English black male Labrador of 4 years old. He is a big boy at about 100 pounds, but is a gentle giant.  He has a gorgeous thick Labby coat and pearly white teeth. He is such a gorgeous purebred Lab and such a total lover!

Edison came to us from a terrible Los Angeles County shelter where he was in danger of euthanasia. It was clear that he was just such a good boy and a gorgeous Lab so we made a decision then and there to rescue him and take him home. Edison has a white patch on his chest, which would eliminate him from show ring competition, but does nothing to change his gorgeousness or his ability to be a fabulous household companion.

Edison has some nice playful energy - he loves to play fetch and play with his toys too. He is, we believe, housebroken and has nice house manners. Note that he will counter surf, as will most labs, so no food on the counters.

Edison is good on the leash but pulls just a bit. He responds well to correction when he pulls and settles into a nice walking pace with you.  He's really a pretty good boy on leash and doing so well.  Til you get him in an obedience class, however, we recommend a pinch collar.

Edison is great with all other dogs both big and small.  He is fostered with a couple labs and a pushy pug and he is wonderful with all of them.  He takes everything in stride.  He plays well with other dogs and shares toys and bones well with them too.  On the fun side, he likes to lay down froggy style, while playing with a plush toy.

Eidson ignores his foster mom's kitties, so dog savvy cats are ok for his new home.

Edison loves to cuddle with his family and his favorite place in the evening is to sit right next to you and lay his head in your lap for some love and attention.  He is learning to sleep in a crate, but really would rather not.

He comes when called and is learning sit. He does great in the car - jumping right in on his own and just sitting down calmly to enjoy the ride.

Edison will do great as your one and only or with another friendly canine companion.  He will do well with children, but since his is big boy, of about 80 pounds,  children over age 5 are best for him.

This beautiful Labrador is happy, healthy, wiggly and full of life. He is just the best boy.

Edison is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Beasley adopted!

Meet Beasley, a handsome purebred Labrador male who is easy going and easy to love. 

Beasley is 2-3 years old and is a nice American Field Labrador. The Field Labbies are a bit taller and a bit thinner with sligher faces. He sure is a pretty fellow. Beasley's foster mom says that he even looks like a Beasley! 

You may notice a black spot in his pictures.  That is because he is a "mismark", meaning he has a small spot of black fur on his right ear.  We think this makes him even more unique. We LOVE the mismarks and think they are an aweful lot of fun to have around. They make for the coolest conversation.

He has beautiful pale yellow to white coat as you can see. He is the perfect size for most homes and is just so handsome! His foster mom says he is yellow deliciousness. They do not come any sweeter than Beasley!

He came to us from a high kill inland shelter where he was in grave danger.  He was found as a stray and unbelievably no one showed up to claim this gorgeous purebred Lab. His foster family has no idea why his people did not come to pick him up because he is an easy-going guy who is going to be a dream dog for the lucky family who adopts him.

Beasley appears to be house broken and hasn't attempted to mark in the house either. Of course any new doggie can have a potty mistake wihen changing environments but he is doing great so far!

He loves to spend the day following his foster family around like a loyal pal.  He thinks his foster mom's cats are the weirdest dogs he has ever seen, and barks at them wo we think no cats for this boy.

Beasley is not just good with people, he is also wonderful with the 3 Labradors that he has met in his foster home. He gets along with them all and they have enjoyed having this guy around. He's a wonderful dog.  There are two females and one recently neutered male, and he does fine with everyone.

Beasley is learning his leash skills. He gets very excited to go for a walk and happily looks around the neighborhood as he goes. He can pull on the leash at times, but does great on a pinch collar.  He would love a family who likes to walk, hike or goes to the dog park. We are pretty sure that he would love dog beach or camping, too! He is a young medium energy Labrador so needs his daily exercise. He's a fine walking partner and will do well in most situations.

Beasley especially loves the ball, and releases it right into your hand, so trips to the dog park or even throwing the ball in your backyard is sure to be a hit with this young boy and provide him lots of fun exercise.

Beasley likes belly rubs, kisses and hugs. This handsome guy is ready for a forever family who will give him all of these. If you are ready for a Labbie who is a love, this guy is for you! Start to pet his head, and he sits and leans into you like it feels better than anything ever.

We think Beasley will do fine with kids aged 7 and up..

Brody 2 adopted!

Meet Brody!  Oh this guy is a real find!  He is a happy, sweet, gorgeous purebred Chocolate Lab of 4-5 years old.

He is an adorable boy with a goofy look on his big old head that makes you not be able to stop hugging him. His sweetness and his dopiness combined is just too hard to resist for any of us.

This boy is about 85 pounds with a gorgeous face & droopy jowels. He is just lovely. Mild mannered, calm, but with just the right amount of playfulness. He is pure perfection!
 
Brody came to us from one of the highest kill shelters in the state. When we met him, we knew he needed to be saved.  He is a big, goofy, lovable boy who has a lovely temperament - the kind of Lab you adore!! And exactly the kind of Labrador we love to save. He is a real prize.
 
Brody gets along great with other dogs.  He is fostered with 4 females and gets along with all of them.  He has enjoyed trips to dog park too where he makes friends with all dogs and people alike!   He has a nice degree of playfulness too.

Brody, though pretty mellow in the house, has medium energy and loves his walks! He is pretty good on the leash too, however he does pull at times so he is best walked with a pinch collar.  He loves his walks, dog park and really just going anywhere. He would love to go to dog beach or anywhere there are other dogs and he also likes to ride in the car.  

He settles beautifully in the house after his exercise and is housebroken! He enjoys playing fetch and will chase the ball and bring it back to you over and over.  He is a fun boy!
 
Brody is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Onyx 2 adopted!

My name is Onyx and just like the stone used in jewelry, I am a gem! I want to be yours forever!

I am a black petite sweetheart with beautiful eyes that wants to snuggle with my forever  mommy or daddy. I love to gently give you my paw and hold hands while you scratch my chin and pet my head.


Onyx is a gorgeous 2 year old beauty queen. She's a petite sized female at about 50 lbs and she has a beautiful face, petite paws, a feathered tail and a nice small head.



This girl is sweet and mellow and easy going. She knows her commands of "sit" and “stay” and “shake”.  She's housebroken and a good girl in the home too. She rides quietly in the car but is still a little unsure of it and will need some more trips to get over her nervousness.



Onyx gets along well with her two brother lobbies but tends to ignore them and follow her foster dad or mom around the house. She chases after balls at the dog park or in the backyard at her foster home. She makes the funniest noise at times when she stretches on the floor.


It's quite hard to imagine such a sweet angel in a shelter isn't it? Yet there she was. She was given up by her owners and no one came for her. Once she was available for adoption, our volunteer saw her and that was that. We scooped her up quick, got her to the vet for her exam, spaying and took her on home for fostering.



This girl will do great with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only. She gets on beautifully with her two older energetic brother labs and is friendly with other dogs at the dog park. She enjoys the dog park and exploring the area and would do well on hikes as she seems more of a medium energy girl.

Onyx is perfect on the leash and her lab brothers could learn from her.


Onyx is a snuggle bunny and loves her person or people and likes to be close. She wants to be a lap dog and will put her paw in your lap to get attention and stare into your eyes. She will happily sleep on her own bed all night but really wants to come into your bedroom and snuggle with you. She loves her belly rubbed and giving kisses to her foster dad.


Onyx is not cat tested so no kitties for her at this time.

We think she will do fine with kids over age 6 too.

Onyx is a healthy girl and is microchipped, spayed, up to date on vaccines, and current on flea control.

Badger Girl adopted!

Meet Badger, an AKC purebred black female lab of 5 years old.  This girl is a lovely combination of playful energy and nice indoor mellowness.

Badger came to us from her owners who recently had a baby and could no longer give Badger the time and attention she needed.  Unfortunately it is all too common that loving dogs end up forgotten about when a family has children.  We are honored to find a new forever home for such a fabulous dog!

Badger knows sit, down and come commands.  Her previous family definitely spent some time training this sweet girl and it paid off!  She is a well mannered, well trained girl.

Badger is a pretty submissive girl - and gets along well with all other dogs.    She is fostered with an older male lab and the two get along great!    Badger walks pretty well on leash.  She will pull at times, but mostly will walk beside you.

Badger settles beautifully in the house after she has had her exercise. She likes to be close to you and nap at your feet or on the bed.  She is housebroken and not destructive, but as any dog, she should be watched at first in her new home.  She loves playing with toys and would enjoy a home where she has some fun doggie toys to play with!

Badger would do well in a home with another doggie companion or as your one and only.  But she would most likely prefer a home where her people are home more often than not.  We do not know how she would do with cats, so no kitties in her new home.

She is a very good girl in the car, she settles beautifully and just lays down while you drive.  She rides along well while running errands, and sometimes likes to find her way to the passenger seat while you are inside a store.  

Badger will do well with children though keep in mind, any playful lab can knock over toddlers.  Of course if you have children, you need to be sure you also have the time to give love and attention to this sweet girl.
 
Badger is spayed and up to date on vaccinations.

Enzo adopted!

Meet Enzo, a happy wiggly yellow male Lab of about 4-5 years of age. This guy is the sweetest happiest Lab ever who loves everyone and everything! 

Enzo is a big healthy boy, although a little overweight right now.  This is a very easy fix - something that limited food & exercise will fix easily & quickly!  When he loses a bit, he will be at his ideal weight of 100 lbs. Until then there is just more of this lovely teddy bear to love!

Enzo came to us from his owners who had fallen on hard times financially and could no longer care for Enzo like he deserves.  Enzo lived with another Lab and 2 cats and did wonderful with all of them!
 
Enzo has a gorgeous buttery light yellow/cream colored coat and it's so soft - he is a joy to pet!  The best part about Enzo is his outstanding temperament!  He loves attention, loves to play, loves all people and all dogs too!

Enzo is also great with cats!  He spent the last couple years or so of his life living with a kitty and he was always so gentle with her!   This boy would be a great choice for a family with cats!
 
Enzo is a happy, playful Lab. He needs and loves his daily exercise, especially since he needs to shed some extra pounds.  He is great with other dogs and would love to go to dog park with you for play dates, or long walks, hiking, or even a jog here & there.

Enzo will do great with another playful friendly canine companion in his new home - or as your one and only as long as you are not gone long hours every day.  

Enzo is housebroken and good in the house too. Enzo loves his toys - especially the soft, squeaky toys.  He also enjoys a game of fetch!
 
Enzo can pull on leash, as he just gets so excited to go for a walk and meet other doggies.  Much of this is because he has gotten little opportunity to get good, daily exercise in the last few months due to his previous owner's situation.  Enzo is best walked on a pinch collar and with a little bit of work, can become a good walker quite quickly!
 
If Enzo is super happy and wiggly and glad to see you he may try to jump. We are working on this and he is doing better. As he does know, he shouldn't jump.  Enzo will do well with children over age 6, as he may be a little too wiggly for tiny toddlers.

Enzo is very, very sweet. He is a real lover and adores all people. He likes to give kisses and lay his head in your lap.  He loves being pet, and belly rubs are great too!  He will even give you a nudge to keep petting him if you stop.  What a lover he is!

Enzo is a very affectionate good boy with the absolute best Labby personality. He is everything we look for in our dogs!

Enzo is healthy, neutered, up to date on all vaccines, current on flea control and microchipped.

Patriot adopted!

Meet Patriot!  Oh this guy is a real find!  He is a happy, sweet yellow male labrador of 5 years.

Patriot came to us from his family who hit hard times financially and was losing their home.  This boy had been with them since he was just 12 weeks old.  They sought us out to be sure that Patriot found a loving new home. It's been hard on Patriot losing the only home he has ever known, but he's such a great dog and he has shown us he will make a wonderful dog for his new family.

This gentle big boy is about 90 or so pounds with a super soft coat and a gentle easy about him.  

Patriot came from a home with a young toddler, so has a known history of being good around kids!  And he is also great around all dogs and cats too!  He barked at first at the cats in his foster home, but as soon as the cats stood their ground, he left them alone.  He is also fostered with dogs both big and small and does great with all of them.

And this guy is a gentle bear cub of a dog. Just lovely. Mild mannered, calm, but with just the right amount of playfulness. He is a good choice for toddlers and even kitties.
 
Patriot is a mostly mellow boy on the calmer side who loves to hang out with his person.  He would make a great companion to another doggie, or would do well as your one and only boy. He would do great in a home where his family is home more often than not.  And he would do very well in a home with children!

Patriot, though pretty mellow, has medium energy and loves his walks! He is pretty good on the leash too, however he does pull at times so he is best walked with a pinch collar.  He loves his walks, dog park and really just going anywhere. He would love to go to dog beach or anywhere and he also likes to ride in the car.  He hops right in the car on his own and enjoys the ride.

Patriot settles beautifully in the house after his exercise.   He enjoys snoozing at your feet while you work, or laying on the couch watching TV with you.
 
Patriot takes treats very gently and is well mannered around his people while you eat.  He will beg at first, but quickly gives up and lays down for a nap.
 
Patriot is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.  All he needs now is a ton of fur-ever love.

Rascal adopted!


Meet Rascal!  Oh this guy is such a love!  He is happy, sweet, gorgeous, and just the best boy with a giant blocky head, droopy jowels and just an all around handsome boy!

Rascal is a 5 year old yellow male English Labrador. He is about 75 lbs, and a real lovely boy. Just look at his adorable face.

Rascal was turned into a local high kill shelter in Los Angeles by his owners because they were moving.  This poor boy was skinny and scared and needed rescue desperately.  Thank goodness our volunteer saw him and we immediately took him into our IndiLab family.  After a couple weeks of care in our foster home, he was finally healthy enough to be neutered.

This guy is good with all other dogs and loves all people!!  However he loves to chase the cats in his foster home, so no kitties for him in his new home.
 
Rascal is a mellow boy in the house and is completely housebroken. He's so lovable all he wants to do is lay by you and cuddle.  He is a snuggler and would love nothing more than to hang on the couch with you or even share your bed if you allow him.
 
Rascal is a low to medium energy boy who loves his walks and is good on the leash.  And he settles very well in the house after his exercise.  He also loves to retrieve and tennis balls are his favorite. What a great dog!

Rascal loves to cuddle and be pet. He likes to be close to his person in the house. He's a big wiggler and a happy boy.
 
Rascal is just fabulous with other dogs!  He will do great in a home as your one and only doggie, or with another friendly canine companion.  Rascal loves food like many labs, but he is still learning to be gentle with his food, so kids over age 7 would be best for this boy.

Rascal is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. This healthy happy Labrador is ready for a family of his own.

Dori Lin adopted!

Awe what a sweetie! Meet Dori Lin, an adorable petite Labrador female who is so darling and sweet and just pure joy to have around.  This girl is smaller in size at about 45 pounds.

Dori Lin is about 6-7 years old. She is completely housebroken and a lovely houseguest. She likes to be near her person and loves other dogs.  She is completely enjoying her foster home where she is fostered with another large breed dog and the two of them enjoy a romp around the yard and a game of tug of war too!
 
Dori Lin came to us from our rescue partner in Taiwan.  This sweetheart was born into a hoarding situation where she spent most of her life.  When our rescue partner was alerted to her plight, Dori Lin was one of the lucky ones to come into rescue.  She was such a lovely girl, our rescue partner just adored her!  She was completely vetted before she took her long trip to join us here in sunny Southern California.  She is a healthy, happy wiggly labbie girl.
 
Dori Lin is great with all other dogs!  She would do great as your one and only or with another doggie companion.   She enjoys playing with the toys in her toy box and playing with other dogs too.

Dori Lin is great on leash, rarely ever pulling. She walks right with you. She is more of a mosier than a sprinter and enjoys smelling, smiling, wiggling and looking cute. She would enjoy 2 good walks each day, perhaps a trip to the dog park for playtime with other dogs and maybe an occasional hike or trip to dog beach.
 
Like most labs, Dori Lin loves her people.  When she sits down in front of you, she gives you her paw which we find just adorable!  She sleeps soundly through the night on her dog bed and loves to follow you around from room to room during the day.

The family lucky enough to adopt this girl will have so much joy in their life!

Dori Lin is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Hula adopted!

Meet Hula!  Her foster mom calls her Hula Hoop because Hula hoops bring back memories of a happy childhood time, and Hula is a very happy girl.  Nothing gets her down. 

Hula is 4 years old and is a light yellow female purebred Labrador Retrieverl

Hula came to us from a high kill local shelter, where she was in danger due to not enough space for all the homeless dogs.  Our volunteer went to meet Hula and after seeing what a wonderful girl she was, she was soon in the car on her way home to join the Indilab family!
 
Hula is completely housebroken and has nice house manners.  She loves her toys and balls, and truly enjoys a game of fetch - bringing the ball back and giving it to you each and every time! 

Hula does great with all other dogs.  She gets along very well with the dominant female lab in her foster mom's home too!  What's even better is that Hula is great with the cats in her foster mom's home!  She basically ignores them, so she would be a good choice for a family with kitties.

Hula can be a bit jumpy when she gets excited, and could knock down a toddler, so we recommend no children under the age of 7 for her.

Hula is learning to walk nicely on a leash and is also learning to sit on command.  She would love some continued training on her commands  like stay and down.  Her new family might even enjoy taking her to a doggie obedience class which is a great way to bond with her too.

Hula is a happy, wiggly girl - what you would expect from a Labrador!  She will bring lots of joy to the family lucky enough to adopt her.

Hula is healthy, spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Snowshoes adopted!

Meet Snowshoes, a handsome, laid-back, 7-year old purebred Labrador. He's a big, beautiful white cream puff of a prince and he is an absolute joy.

This gorgeous boy is as easy as they come. He wants to please, he loves everyone, and he's a pleasure in the house.

Snowshoes has a silky, soft, whipped cream colored coat, a nice big blocky head, thick otter tail, black eyeliner and most important of all - a heart of gold.  

It's not hard to imagine people falling head over heels with this doll and even wanting to give him lots of yummy cookes. Oh boy! Well we think a lot of this went on in his last life because currently Snowshoes is a chunky monkey and really needs to drop a few pounds. Feeding high quality food at conservative amounts and lots of nice leash walking to build up his muscle and in no time Snowshoes will have a perfect Labby figure.

Meanwhile the extra weight is taking it's toll and making our angel slightly stiff and out of shape. Good news is he's already on his way and just needs the best owner or family to continue his healthy ways!

Snowshoes comes to us from a high kill shelter in the inland empire. He did have owner information but it was confusing and after a month of trying, the shelter finally let us take him home. We have no idea how this kid became lost in the first place, but his spirit and manners show us someone did love him. We wasted no time getting this angel into his foster home and his foster mom says he is just the best.

Snowshoes loves all humans and other dogs.  He is sweet as pumpkin pie.  He greets houseguest politely, no jumping.  He gives kisses, but only at your request.  Belly rubs however are his favorite.  His is a real lover boy and he even doubles as a body pillow on movie night!

Snowshoes loves his walks and will race you out the door.  Losing weight will be easy because he loves going out with his person. He does not pull on the leash and walks at an easy strolling pace.  He passes other dog nicely.  If you happen to run into a neighbor on your walk and wish to stop and chat, Snowshoes will not complain, he is very patient.

Snowshoes rides well in the car.  He has even been known to start snoring on longer rides after all he is a relaxed fella.  He knows his commands, sit, shake and stay and only wants to please you the way a Labrador Retriever should.

Snowshoes is on a nice healthy diet and exercise routine and with his new family continuing, he'll be at perfect weight in no time.

Snowshoes is good with children and will do find with kids 7 and older. We dont' know about cats, so no kitties for this boy.

He's neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. All that's needed now is tons of love and a wonderful fur-ever home.

Howlie adopted!

Meet Howlie, the absolute cutest, most wonderful purebred Golden Retriever around. This boy has it all, sweetness, adorable antics, and the perfect mix of fun hiking partner and mellow cuddle buddy.

Howlie is a very mellow, easy going, really gorgeous 4 year old male Golden. He's a wonderful petite size at just 56 pounds. He has a beautiful golden coat and a fabulous feathered Golden tail.

Howlie has a very cool and beautiful coat. It's a deep golden color and then changes slightly to an English Cream toward the back. It is hard to show in his photos how beautiful his coat is.

Howlie came to us from a Los Angeles city shelter where he was brought in as a stray. Someone had used him for target practice and besides being covered in fleas and ticks, with sores on his hocks and underweight, he had a lodged bb in his chest from a bb gun likely fired to hit him in the face. As gentle as this pumpkin is, we just can't imagine him enduring this kind of cruelty. But we also are thrilled to see him so happy in foster and so truly loving to all who meet him.

Howlie is a great candidate for therapy work. He adores humans and will even do well with little children. He's a very gentle dog and he loves to put his head in your lap and give you his paw.

Howlie knows how to "sit", "lay down", "stay", and "heel". He loves to retrieve a ball and is very good about giving it back. He loves his toys and he loves his walks. He's a fun retriever with a heart of gold.

Howlie will do best with someone around a lot or with another dog. He's very calm and easy but he also loves his company too. He does great with the other dogs he is fostered with. He would also do beautifully with a stay at home mom and family. He's just a great dog who is good with everyone.

Howlie is completely housebroken and non destructive in the house. Like most retrievers, he will not be happy left outside in a yard with people at work all day. He will do best with indoor/outdoor free access and with some company.

We don't know how Howlie will do with cats so no kitties for this fella at this time.

Howlie is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, wormed, and current on flea control.

Candy Corn adopted!

Meet Candy Corn, a happy, wiggly, and sweet purebred yellow female Labrador of just about 4 years.  She is a nice size of about 70 pounds and is a sweet, loving girl.

Candy Corn is a darling dudley yellow girl with a sweet face and equally sweet disposition. She loves everyone and has a nice playful energy about her as she picks up and plays with her toys and brings them to you.

Candy Corn is great with other dogs and likes to go to dog park. She enjoys playing fetch and loves to just romp around and make friends. And she rides beautifully in the car with other foster labs on outings.

Candy Corn is a medium energy girl who enjoys her walks and playtime, but also settles down very nicely in the house.  She can pull on leash, but settles well into walking next to you after about 10-15 minutes.  She would love a home where she can play a game of fetch and have some nice toys and bones to play with every day.
 
Candy Corn is completely housebroken and well mannered in the home.  She sleeps soundly through the night in your bedroom with you too.

Candy Corn came to us from the highest kill shelter in all of California. Her life was in immediate danger when we found her and she had only just arrived. So it was shear luck we were able to save her life. This is hard to even imagine because of how beautiful and lovely this girl is.

Candy Corn will do best in a home with another friendly canine companion.  She might do okay as your one and only if you are home a lot with her, but ultimately we think she would be happiest with a doggie companion.

Candy Corn is not tested with cats, so no cats for this girl in her new home.

This pretty girl is a lovely sweet companion and will bring much joy to that family fortunate enough to adopt her.

Candy Corn is a healthy girl who is up to date on shots, and spayed.

Fenway adopted!

Fenway is a beautiful shiny purebred English black male Labrador of 4 years old. He is a big boy at about 100 pounds, but is a gentle giant.  He has a gorgeous thick Labby coat and pearly white teeth. He is such a gorgeous purebred Lab and such a total lover!

Fenway came to us from a terrible Los Angeles County shelter where he was in danger of euthanasia. It was clear that he was just such a good boy and a gorgeous purebred Lab so we make a decision then and there to rescue him and take him home.

Fenway has some nice playful energy - he loves to play fetch and play with his toys too. He is completely housebroken and has nice house manners.

Fenway is good on the leash but pulls just a little bit. He responds well to correction when he pulls and settles into a nice walking pace with you.  He's really a pretty good boy on leash and doing so well.

Fenway is great with all other dogs both big and small.  He is fostered with a couple labs and a couple small dogs and he is wonderful with all of them.  He takes everything in stride.  He plays well with other dogs and shares toys and bones well with them too.

We do not know how Fenway does with cats, so no kitties for him in his new home.

Fenway loves to cuddle with his family and his favorite place in the evening is to sit right next to you and lay his head in your lap for some love and attention.  He sleeps soundly through the night without making a peep.

He knows his command of sit and stay and comes when called. He does great in the car - jumping right in on his own and just sitting down calmly to enjoy the ride.

Fenway will do great as your one and only or with another friendly canine companion.  He will do well with children, but since his is big boy, children over age 5 are best for him.

This beautiful purebred Labrador is happy, healthy, wiggly and full of life. He is just the best boy.

Fenway is neutered and up to date on vaccines.

Murphy adopted!

Cotton adopted!

My name is Cotton and I want to be yours forever! I am an almost white petite sweetheart with big, beautiful, expression-filled eyes that love to look into your soul. If you want to be my forever parent, it will break my foster Dad’s heart because he is falling in love with me. He says I can only go if I get the very best loving family.

Cotton is a gorgeous 2 year old beauty queen. She's a nice sized female at about 60 lbs and she has a beautiful face, petite paws, otter tail and a nice blocky head.



This girl is sweet and mellow and easy going. She is learning her commands of "sit" and “stay”.  She's housebroken and a good girl in the home too. And she rides beautifully in the car - even sitting right next to her other lab brothers.



Cotton loves her foster brother’s rope and wants to play tug of war. She chases after balls at the dog park or in the backyard at her foster home. She enjoys tug-o-war and fetch and loves to lay on one of the three dog beds in her foster home.


It's quite hard to imagine such a sweet angel in a shelter isn't it? Yet there she was. She arrived as a stray and no one came for her. Once she was available for adoption, no one noticed her so she waited and waited until our volunteer saw her and that was that. We scooped her up quick, got her to the vet for her exam, and took her on home for fostering.



This girl will do great with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only. She gets on beautifully with her two older energetic brother labs and is friendly with other dogs at the dog park. She enjoys the dog park chasing balls and exploring the area and would do well on hikes and jogs even though she is a more medium energy girl.



Cotton is pretty good on the leash although she can pull at times. She corrects easily and wants to please. 



Cotton is a snuggle bunny and loves her person or people and likes to be close. She wants to be a lap dog and will put her head in your lap and stare into your eyes. She will happily sleep on her own bed all night but really wants to come into your bedroom and snuggle with you. She loves her belly rubbed and giving kisses to her foster dad.

Cotton is not cat tested so no kitties for her at this time.

We think she will do fine with kids over age 6 too.

Cotton is a healthy girl and is microchipped, spayed, up to date on vaccines, and current on flea control.

Logan adopted!

Logan is a darling male yellow Labrador of 6 years. This adorable butterball is just perfect in every way. His foster mom says he's one of the easiest fosters she's ever had!

Logan is a very mellow boy. He's super easy going and loves to hang out with his person. He also loves other dogs and is wonderful with all of them.

He's a submissive boy who only want to wiggle and smile. He really is just the best.   Logan does well with his foster labbie brother. He also loves his foster mom and he is just so happy to be in his foster home interacting with the dogs, going on nice walks, and having friends.

Logan is a wonderful dog for a family looking for an easy, perfect dog who is totally trustworthy and just a complete lover.
 
Logan came to us from a family who could no longer keep this lovely boy.  They had him since he was a puppy, but recently fell on hard times financially and knew it was best to find Logan a new home.

At 7 years young, Logan has many years of love to give to his new family and just wants a home to call his own.

Logan does great on leash and passes other dogs on his walks with ease.  He is completely housebroken and sleeps soundly through the night  without a peep.
 
Logan would do great with or without another doggie companion, big or small, as he gets along great with all dogs.  And he also does great around cats, so he is a great choice for a family with kitties!

He enjoys his daily walks, and had a great time on a hike with his foster family.  He did great off leash, staying right with his person and always coming when called.  He is a low to medium energy boy.  He would love a daily walk, perhaps a hike on the weekend, but he would also be just fine if you didn't get him out for exercise one day.  He is a low maintenance, easy going boy!
 
Like most labs, Logan loves being with his person and will follow you from room to room, and then just lay down for a nap.  And if you work from home, this boy is so great because he will let you get your work done without disturbing you except to lay at your feet and wag when you say "hi Logani!".

Logan is a healthy boy who is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines.

Mallory adopted!

Meet Mallory, a deep dark chocolate delight! This beautifully bred female chocolate Labrador is nothing if not absolutely wonderful.

Mallory is a gorgeous 2-3 year old beauty queen. She's a nice sized female at about 75 lbs and she has a beautiful face, dark coat, otter tail and a nice blocky head

This girl is sweet and mellow and easy going. She already knows her commands of "sit", "down", and "shake". She's housebroken and a good girl in the home too. And she rides beautifully in the car - even sitting right next to other dogs.

Mallory loves her toys and digging new toys out of the "toy box" at her foster home. She enjoys tug-o-war and fetch and just caring her toys around the house. It's pretty adorable to watch.

It's quite hard to imagine such a sweet angel in a shelter isn't it? Yet there she was. She arrived as a stray and no one came for her. Once she was available for adoption, no one noticed her so she waited and waited until our volunteer saw her and that was that. We scooped her up quick, got her to the vet for her exam, and took her on home for fostering.

This girl will do great with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only. She gets on beautifully with other dogs and really enjoys them. She will do find at dog park or dog beach and would enjoy hikes and jogs even though she is a more medium energy girl.

Mallory is pretty good on the leash although she can pull at times. She corrects easily and wants to please.

Mallory loves her person or people and likes to be close. She even wants to sleep in bed with you if you will let her. But will happily sleep on her own bed if not invided up. She also loves her crate and will go in on her own to rest and chill out.

Mallory is not cat tested so no kitties for her at this time.

We think she will do fine with kids over age 6 too.

Mallory is a healthy girl and is microchipped, spayed, up to date on vaccines, and current on flea control.

Chantilly adopted!

Meet Chantilly, the most adorable 6-7 month old female Lab puppy. She' a little bit of a thing still at under 40 lbs and she is a very pale yellow/cream color.

Chantilly will grow to be a medium sized retrieiver adult and will have a nice even disposition.

Chantilly is sweetness personified. She is such a good girl. For a puppy she is delicate and ladylike and shows a strong desired to please her people. She is just hte sweetest little thing!

This angel came to us from a high kill Los Angeles County shelter after she was picked up as a stray. After her initial hold period, there was a family interested in adopting her, but they changed their minds and the shelter contacted us. Needless to say, we scooped her up straight away and have been adoring her ever since!

Chantilly is a puppy and as such she will need her puppy training, lots of doggie socialization, and tons of patience, love and time. All puppies need a puppy-proofed him where things like wallets, remote controls, cell phones, wires, and other dangerous, delicate, or valuable items are safely stored. She will probably need a crate to be safe for short periods when her new owners are out.

Chantilly will do best in a home where someone is around most of the time at least for the next few months. She is young and being left alone for long hours will just not work.

She will do beautifully with another friendly canine companion. She would love a friendly playmate.

We think she will do find with children over age 7 but we caution families with kids to be sure they are not too busy with their human kids to take on the big responsibility and time commitment of a puppy.

She has not been tested with cats so no kitties for this girl at this time.

Chantilly is doing great in foster and showing how sweet she is. She has the standard expected puppy energy and charms. She loves her toys and being frisky.

Bully sticks, nylabones, and stuffed kongs will be great for her - especially in her crate.

Chantilly is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. She has been wormed with pyrantyl and her new owners will want to worm her again and depending on their vet's advice, may want to boost her vaccines since she is so young.

Maggie Mae adopted!

Meet Maggie Mae, a yellow female lab who is pure sweatheart!  Maggie Mae is a pretty yellow girl of superior temperament. This 1 year old yellow lab is about 70 pounds.  She has a cute, innocent face & lovely brown eyes!  
 
She does need her daily exercise as she is still a young Lab at only 1 year, but she is the perfect mix of mellow calmness and energetic fun. Maggie has lovely house manners and deserves lots of love and affection.  And who could resist her gorgeous face and super soft coat!

Maggie came to us from a high kill shelter where she was found as a stray. The shelter was a high kill shelter lacking in space and we rescued her just before she was in danger of euthanasia. Hard to believe a sweet, beautiful, girl like this with outstanding temperament could be in danger, but due to overpopulation, this is sadly the case.

Maggie Mae is completely housebroken and is just lovely in the home!  She settles well in the house, doesn't counter surf or get into the trash or any other puppy behaviors - she really is a treasure! 

She is a darling girl who will follow you everywhere.  She walks very well on leash - pulling a little bit at times, but corrects very easily and passing other doggies beautifully with a friendly submissive wag.

Maggie is great with all other dogs.  She is a submissive girl, who is very gentle in greeting other doggies and very comfortable around them.  She is fostered with an older female lab and the two get along great!

Maggie Mae will do beautifully as an only dog or with another friendly doggie companion.  She loves to meet new people and new dogs - although she can be a tad shy at first.  She would love trips to dog park or dog beach to make friends with other dogs.
 
Maggie is a medium energy girl - requiring her daily exercise, such as a couple walks or a hike or visit to the dog park each day.
 
Maggie is still a puppy, so she can be a bit mouthy at times.  For this reason we think children over age 7 would be best for this girl.  Although she is lovely with kids, so older kids would be great for this girl!  

Maggie Mae is spayed, up to date on vaccines and flea control, microchipped & ready for her new home!

Horatio adopted!

Meet Horatio, a handsome boy who is easy going and easy to love.  Horatio is 3 years old and is a nice stocky, blocky English Lab.

He has beautiful conformation as you can see with his stunning otter tail, blocky frame, and perfect ears and stop. He is the perfect size for the breed and is just so handsome! His foster mom says he is chocolate deliciousness. They do not come any sweeter than Horatio!

He came to us from a high kill Los Angeles County shelter where he was in danger.  He was found as a stray and unbelievably no one showed up to claim this gorgeous purebred Lab. His foster family has no idea why his people did not come to pick him up because he is an easy-going guy who is going to be a dream dog for the lucky family who adopts him.

Horatio is house broken and wonderful in the house. He settles nicely and loves to spend the day following his foster family around like a loyal pal.  He is great at curling up next to his foster mom while she works and his loves to supervise his human foster kids as they do their homework. This is a real family dog.

Horatio is not just good with people, he is also wonderful with the 3 Labradors that he has met in his foster home. He gets along with them all and they have enjoyed having this guy around. He's a wonderful dog.

Horatio is learning his leash skills.  He gets very excited to go for a walk and happily looks around the neighborhood as he goes.  He would love a family who likes to walk, hike or goes to the dog park.  We are pretty sure that he would love dog beach or camping, too! He is a young medium energy Labrador so need his daily exercise. He's a fine walking partner and will do well in most situations.

Horatio likes belly rubs, kisses and hugs. This handsome guy is ready for a forever family who will give him all of these. If you are ready for a Labbie who is a love, this guy is for you!

We think Horatio will do fine with kids aged 7 and up as he does like children.

We don't know about cats with Horatio so we will not place him in a home with kitties at this time.

Horatio is neutered, up to date on his vaccinations, and microchipped.

King 2 adopted!

Meet King! King is a gorgeous AKC registered blocky purebred Male Labrador. He is one handsome fella and what a sweet boy.

King is a nice sized bigger boy of 7 years. He's very gentle and sweet and has a jet black coat, burnt sugar eyes, and a tad of salt and pepper on his kissable muzzle.

King came to us from his owners who had fallen on tough times. Faced with having to make some difficult decisions, they asked us to take King into our program and help him find the very best fur-ever home.

In his former home, King lived with several other dogs including a couple very smalle dogs and even a dominant female Mastiff. He is excellent with all other dogs and really enjoys the company of other canines. He is tolerant of even young dogs with is so nice.

King is also very good with cats. He basically ignores them so he will work well in a home with kitties.

This handsome boy is pretty velcro and more so at this time having lost the only home he's ever known. He likes to be right where you are, by your side.

King has been going to dog park with his foster dad and mom and loves it. He makes friends easily and travels in the car with other dogs. He completely enjoys his outings and especially loves his walks. He's a good boy on the leash and passes all other dogs nicely.

King is housebroken and has always been an indoor, beloved pet. Currently he's having a little bit of a hard time adjusting to losing his home but we think he will do just fine as he settles into his routine.

This boy is a medium to mellow fella. He's a good boy in the house and is non-destructive. He sleeps through the nice and has excellent potty manners.

King will do best in a home where someone is around much of the time and maybe with another one or two dogs for company. He gets a tad anxious when left alone and until he is fully settled in a new home, we think he will adjust faster with someone around much fo the time.

Since he is so good with other dogs and mellow as well, he may be a great dog to take to work with you too.

King is a wonderful loving boy. He deserves the best home.

King is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Sargent adopted!

Meet Sargent, a very handsome 5 year old purebred Labrador male.  He has a deep dark chocolate coat and a very pretty face with expressive eyes. He is a happy boy with a heart of gold.  

Sargent came to us as an owner surrender. His owner suffered from some illness and was moved to a hospital for an indefinite period and the rest of his family was moving and unfortunately for them their new home did not allow dogs.  During the period his owner was ill, Sargent spent all of his time ignored in a yard by himself alone. This has to be the saddest thing for a Labrador given their extreme need to be a part of a family.

It was lucky for us this Labby was surrendered.  His former family really neglected him and he deserves so much more.

Sargent is a fun-loving, happy, high-energy boy even at five. He is really more like a 3 year old than a 5 year old. 

He loves playing with and retrieving balls and can often be found with more than one in his mouth which we love!  He will happily play fetch as long as you like. Sargent would make a nice jogging companion.  He loves his walks and gets super excited and wiggly when you bring out the leash. He does pull on the leach but this is an easy fix with practice. His foster mom is using a gentle lead collar and he is improving.  Sargent will also love hikes and just lots of attention.

Sargent is delighted to meet new people and loves other dogs.  Because he was deprived attention for so long we feel he would do best as your one and only.  He deserves to be the center of attention. He will give so much back in return. He would also do fine with another friendly canine companion.

Sargent is in great shape. His new family will want to continue his new grain free diet. He loves his food and is going great on it!

Sargent is 100% house broken.  He settles down nicely indoors after his exercise.

He is quite expressive, both with his facial expressions and sounds. He has a low grunt or "pur" almost as he lies on his back for belly rubs.  He is a talker and a lover!

Sargent loves to go for a ride in the car.  He lies down nicely in the back of his foster moms suv.  She takes him on all kinds of errands because he just loves to be with his person.  

Sargent loves the water. The water hose might be his favorite toy. Or is it his ball?  We cannot say for sure! He loves both and would probably love excursions to dog beach!

He really enjoys a backyard bath and is easy to groom.  Especially since he loves water, the hose, and attention from his person. He even sits nicely to have his ears cleaned. Wow he is a good boy.

Sargent knows sit and is learning his other commands.  He is so smart and eager to please we are sure his forever family will be able to teach him all kinds of tricks and commands.  An obedience class is a great bonding experience, one we are sure Sargent would enjoy.  

We recommend a home with children over 7 for him.  He has not been tested with cats, so at this time we can place him in a cat home.

Sargent is neutered, up to date on shots, and microchipped.

Callaway adopted!

Meet Callaway, a handsome purebred yellow male Labrador Retriever of just about 2 years.

This gorgeous boy is a sweet and curious youngster who loves to be around people and other dogs. He is a medium sized yellow lab with a cream-yellow coat and he is a perfect medium in size with beautiful conformation.

Callaway has a friendly disposition and loves attention. He enjoys going on walks and and he also loves cuddling right by your side! He is a very happy and playful dog and has lots of energy when you want but is happy taking a nap if you're busy. He settles down beautifully in the house and car and is just a good boy.

Callaway is a curious dog who responds very well to training and is also learning commands. He is completely housebroken and he responds really well to positive reinforcement. He is great on walks and is interested in saying hello to other dogs on his travels. He passes people and pooches equally well and is happy to meet all.

Callaway has a great time at the dogpark. He enjoys attention from people just as much as he does from the dogs. He has many friends and everyone likes him. He rides beautifully in the car on the way knowing something good is happening!

Callaway loves his plush toy with squeakys! He likes to throw it in the air and jump on it. It's adorable. He will entertain himself in the cutest way. If there are children in the house, he certainly will think their stuffed toys are his so that needs to be considered.

Callaway was picked up as a stray and found himself in the highest kill shelter in the state. No one came for him and we have no idea why because he is very sweet and easy going. We were thrilled to rescue this kid and he seems to be quite grateful1

He has a friendly disposition and is also a gentle dog in many ways, but he is still young and  does want to jump up to greet his foster mom and dad when they come home. Ideal owners range from family's to individuals. It would be best if his new owners did not have small children becuase he is big dog and jumps up when he gets very excited.

Callaway is quite happy with his foster sister, a big black lab, so he would also make a great companion to a family with another dog.

Callaway is neutered, up to date on vaccines and healthy. He is ready for his forever home!

Keeton adopted!

Meet Keeton, a stunningly beautiful male Labrador Retriever puppy of just a year old. Keeton is jet black, shiney, and sweet as sugar.

Keeton is a young and submissive fella. He is perfect with other dogs - big or small - and loves all people. He's an easy going dog who seems to have no issues to speak of other than being a sweet kid who loves everyone. He's what we would call a "typical Labrador"!

Keeton loves his walks and play time and gets along beautifully with a more dominant female he has been fostered with. He has enjoying meeting and playing with every dog who has come his way.

Keeton is only a year old and still a puppy, but he is a very calm and easy going puppy. He has a nice even temperament and will likely grow to be a mellow dog.

Keeton comes to us from a high kill inland shelter where he was picked up as a stray. Our volunteer spotted him right away on impound but we never imagined no one would show up to claim this boy. He is just so special and gorgeous. But  as luck has it,  he ened up ours and we feel appreciative to be the ones entrusted with finding him a wonderful fur-ever home.

Keeton will do great as a companion to almost any dog. He's very submissive and loving and loves all dogs. He will also do fine as a one and only so long as someone is around much of the time in the beginning while he settles in.

Keeton will do find with kids over age 7 as he can be mouthy at times.

He will love a home where he can continue his training and will get plenty of dog park and walks. He is not a high energy boy but he is young and loves his time in the outside world so much.

Keeton is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Moxie adopted!

Meet Moxie, a perfect chocolate female Labrador Retriever. She's a petite little thing and is incredibly sweet, easy, and darling. Her foster mom says that she is pure joy to have in the home.

Moxie is an 8-ish year old purebred Labby. But don't be decieved by her age. Though she is very mellow and easy going, she can do a 3-4 mile hike as well as any of the other young dogs in her home. And she is extremely healthy and sound which is amazing if one considers the condition in which she was found.

Moxie loves to play with her foster siblings! She will lick their ears, wiggle and chase them. It's adorable.

This absolutely delightful girl is happy, wiggly, and wonderful. She'll jump right up in the car ready to go to dog park, the beach or the trails and on days her foster mom is feeling a tad lazy, Moxie is the first one to let her off the hook, happily laying on her nearby bed with a toy for company and a tail wag to show she's happy regardless of the day's acitivities.

Moxie has what we would call "outstanding" temperament. She is bombproof. She is perfect with all dogs, all cats, and all humans. She loves childen and the elderly and is not frightened by loud noise or strange things like strollers and walkers. Little snappy dogs can growl at her and she'll gently wag her tail, smile, and keep her distance. Nothing brings her down and she has a true love for life.

Moxie is still agile and healthy enough to do therapy work and would certify on the first try. She would love to go into hospitals or senior centers to be pet and comfort sick and lonely people. Her gentle nature and constant smile could bring so much to those who need a little love.

Moxie was found on the street. She was little more than a 38 lb skeleton infested with fleas and covered in sores. She was missing 25% of her fur and had recently nursed a litter. Her nails were so long that they curled around and under her feet. She was starving and dehydrated and likely would have died within days of being found.

Even though life has dealt her a pretty crappy hand, she was happy as could be to be rescued and since that day she has improved beyond anyones expectation. Her dark chocolate coat is shiny and soft. Her brown eyes shine. She's put on 14 lbs and she has a vigor and bounce that tells us she is truly aging backwards. Even her bloodwork confirms how healthy she is!

We've recently spayed Moxie and she is microchipped, up to date on vaccines, wormed, and current on flea control. She's completely housebroken, non-destrucitve, and perfect in the house and car and though she loves her soft beds, she stays off the furniture.

A dog this lovely deserves the best home. She would love a home where she will get daily outings and would love lots of attention. She will do fine as your one and only or with a friendly canine companion. She is playful so will love playing with another playful dog.

If you have been approved to adopt and you are looking for absolute perfection, look no further. Moxie is the one.

Maverick adopted!

Meet Maverick, a sweet, loving, and beautiful 5 year old male Labrador.

He is cream white with the slightest bit of cinnamon sprinkled on his ears and eyelashes. We think he is quite handsome!

Maverick's coat is soft and pretty and he is a good looking boy. This sweetheart was turned over to us when it was learned that his families human baby was severely allergic to dogs. His family was heartbroken to let him go.

Maverick has been loved his whole life and it shows. We are giving him lots of love in his foster home, and he is ready for his forever family to come for him and love him forever.

Maverick gets along with all dogs and people. He is sweet and submissive and wants to snuggle and be close. This is a very intelligent boy and you can see it in his posture and eyes always wanting to please and be there for you.

Maverick is fostered with four Labs and gets along beautifully with them all. When the activity dies down and it becomes quiet, Maverick finds his foster Mom and gently lays his head on her lap for loving pets. He is a very affectionate boy.

Maverick is good with children but has not been tested with cats so no kitties for Maverick. We would love him to go to a home where someone was present and with him to love and teach him to trust his new forever family. He loves rides in the car and is completely house trained.

Maverick is neutered and up to date on vaccines.

Uno adopted!

Meet Uno, a jet black, shiny and very handsome 5 year old purebred Labrador male. He has a glossy black coat and a nice big blocky head. He's a real sweetheard and loves everyone.

Uno is typical, doofy, dopey Labby boy who loves everything in life - from meeting people and dogs to getting his dinner - everything is awesome and happy for Uno.

Uno came to us as an owner surrender from a family who was no longer able to care for him due to personal issues. When we met him we liked him straight away as does everyone who meets him. After a quick neuter and vet visit, Uno found himself in foster where he has been having a great time and getting along nicely with the other dogs in the home.

Uno is a fun-loving, happy, medium energy boy. He gets along great with his two foster labby sisters. He's a pretty easy doing dog and would love a home where he will get lots of waks and attention.

Uno is still pulling on his leash a bit but does beautifully on a pinch collar. Pulling is an easy training fix and as you work with him, a pinch collar will make walking him easy.

Uno is perfectly crate trained and sleeps quietly through the night. He is potty trained too and he has not had an accident in his foster home. 

Like pretty much any lab, Uno will love hikes and lots of attention from his new family. He's make a great jogging or hiking or walking partner. And he settles beautifully indoors after his walks.

Uno is delighted to meet new people and loves other dogs.  His foster mom thinks that, while he would do fine with another friendly canine companion, Uno would also be happy as your one ad only, not having to share the love.

Uno is in great shape. He's of a good weight and looks beautiful. His new family will want to continue his new grain free diet.

Uno knows his basic commands and wants to please. Working with him is easy!

He has thus far ignored the cats in his foster home, so at this time we believe he can be placed with dog savvy cats.

Uno is neutered, up to date on shots, and microchipped.

If you feel this sweet and beautiful Labrador is right for your family and you have already been approved to adopt, please email scartersoo@mac.com

Briar adopted!

Tulsa adoption pending!

Meet Tulsa, a beautiful Fox Red male Labrador who is also a "dudley" meaning he has beautiful liver eyeliner and a liver colored nose. This 1 year old Labrador Retreiver is just gorgeous.

Tulsa comes to us from an Inland high kill shelter where our volunteer saw and fell in love with him. He's kind of hard to miss as he is quite beautiful.

Tulsa is a typical young Labrador. He's still learning his commands and how to walk on the leash well and he loves to jump up and put his paws toward your shoulders to hug you. Although it's very, very adorable, we are teaching him that no jumping is ever ok.

Tulsa loves other dogs and enjoys being around them. He especially likes young playful dogs and enjoys visits to the dog park.

This youngster will do beautifully in a home where someone is ready for a young Labrador who wants to be very close to them and a best buddy. Tulsa is a velcro-ish dog. He loves to be near you and he wants your love.

He would do great in a home where he can continue trips to dog park, lots of leash walking, and hopefully hikes and jogs too! He's not a hyper boy at all but he is young and needs and loves his daily exercise.

Tulsa is still pulling a bit on the leash. On a pinch collar he walks very nicely though. His adopter should plan on using a gentle leader or a pinch collar to walk him as he learns. He meets other dogs nicely on the leash now that he is used to being on one. He does best on a 4' lead.

Anyone who meets Tulsa comments on his looks. He really is one of the most beautiful fellas we've had in awhile. His exotic eyes and coat make him sparkle in the sunlight and his charming adorable personality completes the picture.

Tulsa is young so probably best placed with a family who has someone home much of the time in the beginning. He's need exercise and training. He'd love a basic obedience or puppy class or you can work with him on your own. He wants to please and training him will be fun and rewarding.

Tulsa's biggest challenge is getting in the car. But he is learning that going in and out is easy and getting the hang of it well. He puts his 2 front paws up and waits for you to lift his booty in. Soon he will jump in all on his own.

Tulsa is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and ready for love.

If you feel this handsome kid is right for you and you have been approved to adopt, please shoot an email to his foster mom emmycastlen@gmail.com

Creme Soda adopted!

Meet Creme Soda! The handsomest golden guy ever! This guy is pure golden sweetness and just wants a family to call his very own. He is one true creampuff. Loving, easy, mellow, kind, and perfect in every way.

Creme Soda is an English Cream Golden and is about 5 years old.  He has the loveliest smile that never goes away and an even lovelier personality.  His foster mom calls him Mr. Happy!

We think this special boy would be ideally suited for therapy work if you so desire, and would be great in a home with children.

Creme Soda came to us from a high kill shelter in Los Angeles - hard to believe, we know as this boy is gorgeous and as nice as they come!

Creme Soda is amazing on a leash, passing other dogs nicely, rarely pulling at all. He is friendly and has absolutely no aggression. He loves his walks and getting out with his person. He enjoys saying hello to any man, woman, child, dog or cat that he sees. He is just a good guy with a good heart.

This boy also has great house manners and is easy in the home. He is completely housebroken and non-destructive. He is a great car rider too - happy to go anywhere with you for the ride.
 
Creme Soda is a low to medium energy boy.  He would be happy as your one and only, or as a doggie companion.  He is not playful with other dogs, but enjoys their company and shares his space and toys very well with his foster labbie sister.

Creme Soda can make your dreams come true and you can make his come true as well. This treasure deserves only the best of the best homes out there. And he is well worth it.   From a cold shelter floor to a loving and comfortable foster home, this boy would love to be yours!

Creme Soda is a healthy guy who is neutered, microchpped and up to date on vaccines and now ready for his forever home.

Sasha Puppy adopted!

Meet Sasha Puppy - a gorgeous, purebred English female Labrador Retriever baby. This girl is a prize!!  She is a snow white purebred Lab from championship lineage. She is an English or Bench bred Lab.
 
This beautiful puppy is only 4 months old and it's very rare that we have a puppy like this end up in rescue.  This girl's previous owner paid a lot of money for her at 8 weeks old.  Unfortunately her owners had a family emergency and suddenly were unable to keep her, and contacted us to help find her a fabulous new home!
 
Sasha is not only show stopping gorgeous, but she has a perfect temperament.  She is great with every dog she meets, and of course she loves to play with other dogs as is typical of lab puppies!
 
Sasha is already housebroken and crate trained and even knows her command of sit!  She sleeps in her crate at night and doesn't make a peep until her foster parents get up in the morning.
 
Sasha is presently fostered with a small breed dominant female dog and she does great with her. This puppy girl would be great with any dog or cat in her new home.
 
The perfect home for Sasha would be one where someone is home most of the day as puppies need lots of attention and training at this age.

She still has her puppy teeth and is mouthy as most lab puppies are, so she would do best in a home with children over age 5.  Sasha would do well as your one and only, or as a doggie companion.
 
Sasha will need a puppy proofed home and a family that is committed to everything that comes with a lab puppy, good daily exercise, training and lots of toys and socialization to become a good adult canine.
 
This purebred lab is truly outstanding in her breeding - she has excellent looks and a wonderful temperament as well.  Due to how rare it is that we have such a fabulous purebred Labrador puppy like this, Sasha's adoption donation will be $500.  She will also require a $150 spay deposit to ensure Sasha is spayed at the appropriate age of 6 months-1 year old. 
 
Sasha has had her first 2 rounds of vaccines, she has received her Rabies vaccine, and has been dewormed.  She will require one more round of vaccines in early November.  This girl is in excellent health and is a happy, wiggly doll.

Lola Lin adopted!

Meet chunky adorable Lola Lin, the cutest, happiest purebred Labrador in the world. This darling girl is about 4 years old or a little younger and is playful, fun, and drop dead gorgeous.

Lola is a pretty white-cream girl with a blocky head, otter tail and nice conformation. Currently she is overweight by a good 15 lbs or so making her look even cuter though we are working on her diet and exercise routine!

Lola loves all humans and other dogs. She is a genuinely happy girl and wiggles all the time. She brings so much joy!

Lola likes to carry soft toys in her mouth. She is always found walking around with her "baby".

This girl loves her walks! She gets very wiggly and excited when it's time to go for a walk. On her walks, she meets everyone nicely and enjoys meeting other dogs too.

Lola basically ignores cats and will be a good choice for families with kitties!

She likes kids and is good with them. We think kids over age 7 will be good for her.

Lola is on a nice diet and exercise rountine. She was found as a street dog living outside restaurants in Taipai. Everyone fed her because she is so adorable. Then her Taiwan foster mom overfed her too and gave her a lot of treats. Now that she is here with her foster who has her eating good limited food and doing her walks, she will drop the weight in no time!

Lola is apayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. She is heartworm tested, currently on heartworm and flea meds, and she is wormed.

She will do best in a home where she will get lots of attention and walks. She'll do great with another friendly canine companion but doesn't need one to be happy. She'll enjoy being a one and only too!

Barringer adopted!

Meet Barringer! This beautiful near show quality cream colored Labrador is the sweetest boy. He's a perfectly proportioned stunner whith a beautiful face and the nicest temperament.

Barringer is about 2 years old and is a medium sized male Lab at about 70 lbs. The shelter listed his as age as 1 year but we think he's actually older than that. He's a very light yellow - actually more like white - and is a very velcro boy who loves his person or people.

Barringer came to us from one of the highest kill shelters in the state where he was brough in as a stray and was in danger of euthaniasia.

Barringer is a medium energy Labrador who loves his walks. Currently his foster moms are giving him 3 nice walks a day - 2 shorties and 1 nice long stroll. He's a good boy on the leash and does not pull at all and he passes other dogs beautifully.

He's really happy to meet other dogs and he loves meeting people! Barringer likes to have someone around most of the time and would be happiest in a home where he is not left alone. He would love a work from home person or a retired couple. Even a stay at home mom would be nice as he is great with kids and has enjoyed the 5 year old nephew who has been visiting.

Barringer is learning his commands and is doing great on "sit" and "stay". he loves to learn and please!

He's great in the house and car and he sure does love to sit in front and ride shotgun! He is now pretty well housebroken too! Overall, this fella is turning out to be quite a prize.

Barringer loves playing tug-o-war but so far doesn't seem to want to play fetch so much.

This velcro boy really loves his one foster mom and stays right by her side. He loves sleeping in bed with her too and she has been spoiling him and letting him!

Barringer is really quites special. His looks are off the charts gorgeous and his sweet personality makes him doubly wonderful. Will he e yours?

Barringer is neutered, up to date on vaccines, flea control, and wormed,

Tobin Gold adopted!

Meet Tobin Gold, a handsome, fun 1 year old purebred Golden Retriever male with lots of spunk, wiggles, and a wonderful disposition.

Tobin Gold loves to run, retrieve, and play. He's all about having a good time! He has the most friendly personality and he is drop dead gorgeous with his deep shiney coat, and dopey expression.

We love his conformation and size. He's a good medium to larger sized boy and he has those stunning looks that everyone noticies.

Tobin Gold is about as sweet as sweet can be. He loves all humans and all dogs. He's an A+ Golden kid and we just love him.

Tobin has medium energy and is still quite young needing his daily park trips, walks, jogs, and retrieves. He's easy to accomoated by throwing the ball. And he adores running full speed at dog park.

Tobin is a very good boy at home and in the car. He's a true lover. He will do find with kids over age 8 but he is too strong to be walked by a child and is playful and probably will knock a toddler down.

Tobin Gold will do great with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only provided you are home a lot in the beginning to settle him in.

It's a little odd to imagine a dog this nice in a shelter but that is exactly where we found him. No one claimed him and no one adopted him so we snagged him and took him right on home!

Tobin loves his walks but does best on a prong collar or gentle leader. He likes to pull. He's learning though and on a prong collar he is very easy to handle. He passes other dogs nicely and enjoys saying hello to all.

Tobin is quite a healthy fella and is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Camela adopted!

Meet Camela, a sweet, petite 2 year old purebred Labrador female.  She's a small, pale yellow girl with a beautiful face and lovely disposition.

Camela is just about the cutest wiggly girl we've ever seen! She came to us from the streets of Taiwan where she was found by our rescue group tied to a truck without any food or water. This lucky girl was nourished back to health and now she is safe and sound with us and looking for her forever home.

Camela is adjusting beautifully in her foster home and gets along really well with her three foster siblings. She loves to run laps around the yard and and chase tennis balls.

This little girl does not appear to have any formal training but her foster family is working on the basics like "sit" and "wait". We think Camela's forever family will want to commit to an obedience class or two with her. She is completely potty trained and so far she's been really good about not destroying her foster family's belongings.

Camela really is a puppy at heart and that means she comes with a lot of youngster energy! This girl will need a good daily dose of exercise plus a hike or two on the weekends or maybe even a day at the beach chasing the seagulls (on leash of course until she gets the walking on her own thing down). And speaking of walking, Camela does like to pull on the leash a bit so maybe using a gentle leader on her will help her to learn how to slow things down.

Camela is a bit of a goofy girl and quite entertaining to watch as she plays with her squeaky toys and rolls around her favorite green squishy ball in her mouth. She takes joy in everything she does and is just adorable in every way.

Camela is a little on the thin side and would be the ideal weight if a few extra pounds were added to her petite frame. This girl really loves her doggie chow and treats and we think it would be best if she were fed separately from other dogs to start.

Because of her tendency to jump and wiggle, we recommend a home with children over 7 years old.

Camela rides nicely in the car but wants to ride shotgun every now and then to get a birds eye view of everything whizzing by her.  She'll even jump in the trunk of your car if you've left it open (Make sure you don't have any doggie treats in there!)

Camela needs a home where she will be showered with love and someone to spend lots of time with her. She'll melt your heart when she stares at you with her adorable diamond eyes that are so filled with love.

This girl is spayed, microchipped and up to date on her vaccines. She's heartworm tested, wormed, and current on flea and heartworm preventative.

Harbor adopted!

Meet Harbor, a strapping, young, stud muffin of a Labrador. He's 2 years old and absolutely gorgeous with his big blocky head and dopey look!

Harbor is a good sized boy at about 80 lbs and has a lot of personality and heart. He's extremely good with other dogs and he loves all people.

Harbor is housebroken too and is a good boy in the house and car. He settles very nicely after his dog park or walks and loves to be near his humans and other dogs.

Harbor is wonderful with little dogs too! He really is just great with dogs. Unfortunately we don't know about cats so we cannot consider kitty homes for Harbor at this time.

Harbor loves his walks. He is strong and likely not an experienced walker so he does pull on the leash pretty hard. He does fine with a prong collar though and should be walked on one while he learns. On a prong collar, walking Harbor is easier and he does very well.

Harbor is a beautiful dark chocolate color and has near perfect conformation. We found him in a shelter where he really needed to get out and boy is grateful and enjoying being in foster.

Harbor has lovely temperament and is a medium energy youngster. He will do best in a home with lots of exercise, dog park, and dog beach. And where his owner is willing to continue walking with him on his leash skills. He would love another friendly canine companion too!

Harbor still jumps up at times. He is fostered with older children and loves them but we prefer to place him with adults or families with children over age 8.

Harbor is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Polar Bear adopted!

Meet Polar Bear, a 5 pound, 6 year old adorable purebred AKC registered Maltese male.

This little lad is one true cuddler and though he's not a Labrador, somehow natured managed to fit an entire dog into this petite, adorable body. What Polar Bear lacks in size, he makes up in heart and what a wonderful boy he is.

Polar Bear came to us with his Golden Retriver brother Rufus (also available for adoption). His owners had divorced and the dogs were not really wanted or able to be cared for so they came to us.

Although Polar Bear and Rufus are good friends, they are not a bonded pair and do not need to be adopted together.

Polar Bear is a lot of fun. He is foster in a home with large Labs and Goldens and he is just one of the pack. Unlike many small dogs, Polar Bear does not yip or bark or cry and doesn't demand to be picked up all the time. In face he hangs with the big kids no problem. He's been doing daily hikes with the big dogs and he and they love it.

Polar Bear is wonderful with all dogs and all cats. He is also great with people and even children. He's a very easy going, well-adjusted kid and he is happy with you no matter what.

Polar Bear was not well cared for of late. During this time his teeth became infected and we have had to remove many teeth to make him happy and comfortable. He also came to us matted and dirty and it was lucky we didn't have to completely shave him. Our groomer made him white and clean and adorable.

Polar Bear is wonderful on the leash and passes all other dogs and people nicely. He is great in the car and house and in not destructive. He'll sleep through the night on his own bed with or without another dog for a pillow. He loves to sleep in bed with you too, but only if invited.

Polar Bear is neutered, healthy, up to date on vaccines, wormed, microchiped and current on flea control. He's also darn adorable and a wonderful little friend.

Rufus Gold adopted!

Meet Rufus! Rufus is a wonderful purebred Golden Retriever Male. He's a wonderful big boy with a beautiful face and gorgeous feathered tail.

Rufus is about 6 years old and has a wonderful gentle disposition. He smiles all the time and is such a good boy.

Rufus loves everyone. He is nothing but love and wiggles. He's a mellow guy who just wants to have his walks and hang out with his person. He's the perfect amount of velcro love and independent nature.

Rufus lost his home as a product of divorce. Our understanding is that prior to this, he spent all his time in a back yard alone. Knowing hos delightful and friendly this guy is, we can't imagine him in a yard all day alone. He's such a lovely companion.

Rufus loves all other dog and cats. He is not a particularly playful dog with other dogs but he does love thier company and gets along beautifully with all.

He sure loves his walks! He passes other dogs and people nicely too. He tends to pull a bit in the beginning but after you get going, he does pretty well. He's a medium energy guy so really he does fine with a nice 45 minute walk a day.

Rufus likes to be by your side when you watch TV or are on the computer. Other times he goes off on his own and lays down in another room. He's a pretty easy going fella.

He is good with his food and has no food aggression at all. He takes his treats very gently like a good boy.

Rufus adores all people and kids. He will try to meet and wiggle for everyone. To that end, he would make a perfect therapy dog for somoene wanting to visit hospitals - especially childrens hospitals - since he is so friendly and easy.

He will do great with kids, but he is a large boy and could easily knock a toddler over. He likes his chow too so having him eye level with a granola bar may mean he gets his share of kid's snacks!

Rufus is housebroken and non destructive in the home. He's not a barker or chewer and is very well behaved. He knows his commands of sit and shake, down and stay although getting him to down stay is challenging as he prefers to come and kiss you.

Our vet says Rufus is a healthy boy. He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Brooke adopted!

Meet Brooke, a darling 4 year old female purebred Labrador with lots of heart and spunk.

Brooke is a very pretty pale cream - almost white - girl. She is a nice medium size and is of perfect weight. She has a beautiful face and is a big wiggler and smiler.

Brooke is a young 4 and loves her hikes and walks. She lives for getting out there and walking and would be a fabulous waking or hiking partner. She's pretty good on leash and meets other dogs very nicely. She can pull a bit in the beginning but settles in to pace well.

Brooke is great with other dogs and gets along fabulously. But most of all she loves her people. She tends to be a pretty velcro dog and wants to be near you all the time.

Brooke has medium energy and for sure needs her daily exercise. It keeps her happy and she is in fabulous shape. Our vet thought she looked physically perfect which was quite a compliment!

Brooke is a good girl in the house and settles pretty well although she wants to be near where you are.

She is not a big barker when you are not around but she will bark to you when you are home if she wants to go out or go for a walk or play with you.

Brooke is a delicate eater and doesn't eat a whole lot. She is dainty and not food posessive at all.

Brooke came to us from a Los Angeles city shelter where she was picked up as a stray. No one came for her and so we did! We sure are glad we did!

This sweet girl will do best with a couple or family who is active and wants a dog to take to hikes and park trips and beach trips. She will do great with another friendly canine companion but we cannot say how she will do with cats so we cannot place her with kitties at this time.

Brooke has been spayed, is up to date on her vaccines and microchipped. She has been wormed and is current on flea control.

Reef adopted!

Meet Reef, a young 1 year old gorgeous purebred male Labrador. Reef is a beautiful yellow male Lab with perfect conformation and a nice block head. He is a perfect 70 lbs and is in fabulous shape.

This puppy man is still a youngster at only 1 year old. He has a friendly happy disposition and really loves to play with other dogs and people too.
Reef could do with some training - typical for a young Labrador. He has a tendency to jump when he is excited and could learn some additional commands.  A nice obedience class would be perfect for him after he is settled into his new home.

This extremely healthy, young Labrador will need lots of daily exercise. He should do a good jog or long walk everyday and would love hikes on the weekends.

Reef is completely housebroken and does great with all the other dogs he is fostered with both big and small.  He loves playing with his labbie brother and sister in foster, so would love a home with another playful dog, or lots of trips to dog park where he can play with some other doggie friends.

Reef is a real show stopper in the looks department. Most of the Indi volunteers were just floored by his beauty. He really is the kind of dog everyone comments on. What a gorgeous well bred Lab he is. To look at this beauty we cannot help but wonder how he ended up in the shelter.
Reef will do best in a puppy proofed home, because Labs are puppies until they are 2 years old, and at only 1 year old, this boy still has some more puppy left in him.

He will do his best with a family committed to exercise with their Lab every day and where someone loves a very loving dog who loves to be by your side and lay at your feet.

Reef settles nicely inside after his exercise and sleeps the whole night through without a peep.

Reef is fostered in a home with cats.  He hasn't harmed the cats, but he is very curious about them, so we would only consider a home with dog savvy kitties for Reef.

This is a very happy Lab adolescent. With a good committed home he will grow up into a wonderful adult. Though he is active now, his temperament suggests he will be a calmer boy in the next year or so as he matures.

Reef is healthy, neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Shadow Gold adopted!

Here's the Shadow!  Shadow Gold! His foster mom had to fight him for the computer keyboard, because he'd like to let you know who he is.

Shadow is a 5 year old purebred, gorgeous Golden Retriever who was having trouble getting adopted in his local shelter.  We think it is because he is a little reserved at first, taking some time to get to know you.  Once he does, however, he thinks laps are made just for him!

Shadow's coat is a beautiful rich darker color, and as you can see from his pictures, he has a magnificent tail that he just loves to wave around. He's quite a handsome fellow.

His foster mom is in love as is everyone who meets this charmer! Shadow is a little on the skinny side, and could use to gain about 5 pounds. He's truly a beautiful.

Shadow has medium energy, and will require a good walk everyday.  he loves tennis balls, especially the squeaky ones by Kong (available at Target). 

Shadow is great with cats, Actually he is afraid of them. He is very afraid of his foster mom's assertive kitties and would do well in a home with dog savvy cats.

Shadow is learning his basic commands and it doing well. His new owner will want to continue working with him.

Shadow would be fine alone or with a friendly canine companion. He's just a lovely guy who will be your velcro friend as soon as he gets comfortable.

Shadow is neutered, up do date on vaccines and microchipped. All he needs now is the best fur-ever home!

Felicity adopted!

Awe!  Look at this darling sweetheart!  This is Felicity, a so-lovely pure black female Labrador of about 2-3 years old and about 65 pounds.  This gentle low key girl is so loving and calm and just a joy to be with.

Felicity came to us from a very high kill shelter where she was in danger.  Not only are all dogs in danger in these shelters, but black dogs, even purebred Labradors who are black are in the highest danger of euthanasia.

This sweet jet black girl has such a pretty face, a sweet smile and beautiful burnt sugar eyes that will melt your heart and soul.  It’s hard not to fall head over heels for this girl.

Felicity is a calm and low key girl who loves her person.  She is good with other dogs, but will do perfectly as an only dog as she prefers her person or people to other dogs.  Of course she is fabulous with all the dogs she has met both big and small!

Felicity is a shy and timid girl at first, and as she warms up to you, will crawl herself into your lap for more affection and love – and boy do you want to just wrap this girl in your arms forever!  While she would do fine around children, we don’t think she would love a household full of loud children even though she would be very gentle with them.

Felicity is excellent on leash and doesn’t pull at all.  She is wonderful passing other dogs and acts like a true lady.

In the home she is completely housebroken and well mannered.  She would even be a good dog to take to work with you if you have that luxury.

Felicity would do best in a home with a loving, gentle family who will adore her and also give her the time she needs to come out of her shell and start to enjoy the world around her.

Felicity is spayed and up to date on vaccines.  She is now ready for her forever home.

Boomer 4 adopted!

Meet Boomer 4, an adorable, goofy, handsome kid! Boomer is a bench bred (or "English") Labrador purebred and he is one fabulous looking dog.

Boomer is a medium sized, block headed Lab and is about 7-8 years old. He's a bouncy, sweet, boy who loves everyone and all dogs.

Boomer came to us from a very high kill shelter where he was picked up as a stray. We knew of him straight away as dogs this well bred and beautiful are not so common. We expected an owner to show and were so surprised when no one came. We met Boomer and we saw that his personality was as fabulous as his looks. We knew we could find him a great fur-ever home.

Boomer is fostered with three other retriever 'siblings' and they all get along great. He's an easy going guy and gets on really well with all. He's got a bit of bounce in his step and loves his walks. He's a medium energy boy.

Boomer would love a home where he will get his daily walks around the neighborhood. He would do beautifully with another friendly canine companion too although he is not a super playful puppy and is more of a mellow, easy going lad.

Boomer loves to be by his person and is a very good boy in the house. He is not destructive and not a chewer, digger, or barker.

This kid is a wiggler with a cute face. Everyone who meets him comments on how adorable he is. Honestly this is a true Labrador head to tail tip!

Boomer is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. All he needs now, is the very best fur-ever home!

Marina adopted

Meet Marina, a petite, chocolate, purebred girl who is just adorable in every way. She is a smaller girl of maybe 50 lbs.

Marina is a 3-4 year old chocolate bunny who is wonderful to be with. She has a nice calm, albeit slightly shy, personality and is a submissive and friendly girl.

Marina came to us from a high kill shelter where she came in as a stray. No one came for her. We were not surprised as she was skin and bones at the time and we assumed she had been on the street for awhile.

Marina is a very dark chocolate girl and is slight. She is a field Labrador and her dew claws have been removed suggesting she is a AKC registered Labrador.

She is amazing with all other dogs. She loves to play and loves to be around the other dogs. She will do beautifully at dog park or dog beach or just on walks meeting other dogs.

Marina is great on the leash too. She doesn't pull and is easy to handle. She meeting other dogs nicely during walks and is friendly to humans she meets as well.

Marina is housebroken and is a good girl in the house. She's not destructive and sticks to her toys.

She will do great in a home with another friendly canine companion or as your one and only true love though we don't know how she would do as an only dog left alone all day so likely will not place her in that situation.

We prefer she go with kids over age 8 and she is not cat tested so no kitties for Marina.

Marina is great in the car too and enjoys rides. She will love doing fun trips with her new owner.

This angel is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines.

Crocket adopted

Meet Crocket, an adorable 1-2 year old purebred Labrador male who will melt your heart.

Crocket is a very dark chocolate purebred fella with a nice big block head and beautiful conformation. He's quite a handsome beauty and he' still just a youngster.

Crocket was picked up as a stray and taken to a very high kill shelter along with another dog who was adopted. When we met him we knew we would love to take him into our program as he is so delicious and sweet and beautiful.

Crocket is basically still a pup in many ways. He's curious, adorable, silly, playful and fun. And of course still learning his manners. He will try to jump up on his human if allowed to do so as he really just wants to give a hug and say hello. But he is learning already that jumping on humans is not permitted.

He's a medium energy youngster who settles beautifully after his dog park or other exercise. He has a nice temperament and gets along nicely with other dogs.

Crocket is a perfectly sized boy with perfect conformation. He looks like a show dog and everyone comments on his good looks. As he learns more and trains up nicely, he will surely be the talk of the neighborhood with his charm and beauty.

Crocket will do great with someone ready for a youngster and willing to provid the exercise, fun time, attention, and training all young dogs require to be solid canine citizens. He would love another sweet dog to be friends with but also would do find alone with somoeone able to be with him a lot in the beginning as he settles in.

Crocket tends to pull on his leash a little in the beginning of his walks. Sometimes he will bark to say hi to other dogs. He's a bit of a goof as you would expect him to be. He knows sit and seems to be housebroken so he does know a bit, but he will need continued training and of course tons of hugs, kisses, and belly rubs.

Crocket will do best in a home without any children under age 8. He's still working on not jumping and he may knock a smaller child around without intending to. Plus folks with little kids usually just don't have the time to dedicate to young Labs.

Crocket can't wait to come home with you and go on hikes, trips to dog beach and dog park, and just to cuddle with you. He also is fabulous in the car and would love to go on trips and even camping!

Crocket is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Marsh adopted

Meet Marsh, a handsome blocky 5 year old male Labrador. This gorgeous hunk of chocolate is to die for sweet and has wonderful conformation and temperament.

When we first saw Marsh at a high kill inland shelter, we knew his owner had to be coming for him. After all, a purebred Lab this beautiful, with this much sweetness, certainly was a beloved family member right?

Well, no go. No one showed and there was no way we could leave such a perfect Labrador behind, so we scooped him up, hit the groomer on the way home and off he went to foster where he has been nothing but pure joy since.

Marsh is a very easy going, mellow yet fun Lab. He loves his walks, walks beautifully and loves all people.

He's good with all the dogs he meets and he's a very affectional friend. He will stay near you in the house on his bed while you work or watch TV and he takes great joy in trying to please his person.

Marsh is housebroken and non-destructive. He's a polite house guest and a real gentleman.

This easy going fella will do well as a 2nd dog with a friend, or as your one an only. He's also a fabulous dog to take to work with you if you are permitted to do so because he is not only well behaved, he is so good with people and dogs.

Marsh is a healthy boy and has a beautiful coat. It's a little dull but on his new good grain free food, and with a little time, it will shine like glass. He has the looks and the temperament Lab lovers appreciate and is an example of why we love this breed to much.

Marsh is a medium energy boy who is neutered, up to date on vaccines, wormed, current on flea control and microcipped.

All we need now is the best forever home around!

Beamer adopted!

Meet Beamer!  Beamer is a beautiful purebred yellow female Labrador that is an "English" or Bench Bred style Lab!  

She is a gorgeous girl of 6 years with the loveliest face. Beamer is a compact, petite girl on the smaller side at only 58 pounds!  She is one of the cutest little girls we have ever seen!

This girl is more than just looks though. She is a sweet, happy Lab who is easy going and settles well in the house, and a playful girl who is a pleasure to be with.

She loves all people, but will never jump to greet them!  She is well mannered on the leash, walking on a regular collar and rides great in the car.

Beamer came to us from her owner who fell on hard times financially and could no longer keep Beamer.  While Beamer started her life as a loved, indoor dog, more recently she found herself stuck outside in the yard with little attention.  Well her life outdoors in over!  Beamer is now loving her life in foster, sleeping on a nice comfy doggie bed indoors with her foster family.

Beamer gets along fabulously with other dogs both big and small.  She is not really playful with other dogs, but does great hanging out with every dog she meets.  She walks well on leash and passes other dogs with ease.
 
Beamer would do well as your one and only, or with another doggie companion.  She enjoys her doggie toys and bones.  She might play a short game of fetch, but isn't much for running over and over again.

Beamer is a cuddler and a lover - really enjoying her belly rubs!  You can often find her rolling onto her back for more belly petting!
 
She is almost 100% housebroken and is learning quickly, so we are confident she will be at 100% very, very soon.

She is a mostly mellow girl with medium energy and will do best in a home with a couple of nice walks, perhaps a dog park visit here or there, and of course lots of love.  
 
We do not know how Beamer will do with cats therefore; we will not place her in a home with them.
 
Beamer is spayed and up to date on all vaccines.

Chowder adopted!

Meet Chowder, a big goofy purebred yellow male Labrador of about 7 years. He's a nice big easy boy which a beatiful face and a gentle heart.

This gentle giant boy is a pale yellow color with a happy smile. He's gorgeous of course but he's just as sweet as he is handsome.

Chowder came to us from a local high kill shelter where he sat for 2 weeks before anyone noticed him.  As soon as we learned of this boy's plight, we met him and realized he didn't belong in that shelter at all!  This boy is a lovebug and so easy going!

Chowder is a beautifully bred and gentle boy. He is excellent with children, though he could knock toddlers down. He's a patient fella.

Chowder is fabulous with other dogs.  In fact, he is fostered with 3 other dogs and does great with all of them.  He's not that playful with other dogs, but lives side by side with them with ease.

Chowder loves all people. He likes to give you kisses when you get your face near his to say hello.  He's your typical happy, labby boy with the perfect Labrador temperament.

Chowder is a low to medium energy boy.  He is very calm and mellow in the house, although he does love his walks and is very good on leash. But because he's a big boy it is nice to walk him on a pinch collar even though he mostly does fine without one. He passes other dogs nicely and says hello to everyone passing by.

Chowder would do great as your one and only dog or would do fine in a home with other dogs - he really doesn't seem to care one way or another.  Chowder also does great with cats!  He basically ignores them, so he would be a great choice for a family with kitties!
 
Chowder is completely housebroken and non-destructive when left.  He is a gentle, easy going boy who you can take anywhere with you as he is good in the car, well mannered in the house, and great with all people and dogs he meets.  He is content with one or two walks a day and laying around at your feet the rest of the day.

Chowder is good with his food and shares toys nicely with his foster siblings.  At times he finds it fun to play with a tennis ball and walk around the house with one in his mouth - silly, labby boy!

Chowder is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.
 
If you would like to add this gentle giant to your home, be sure to complete an application and follow up with an email to lauren@indilabrescue.org

Palmer adopted!

Meet Palmer, a handsome male 2-3 year old chocolate purebred Labrador. This young adolesent is a loveing happy fella with lots of smiles and energy looking for just the right fur-ever home!

Palmer is very good with other dogs. He really likes them. He has beenn going on lots of hikes and trips with other doggie friends and gets along beautifully with all. He even rides nicely in the car with other dogs by his side.

Palmer is a youngster and needs his daily exercise. He has been hiking and going on lots of walks. When he is well exercised, he does great in the house and is quite calm.

He likely was not exposed too much to walking on a leash or even meeting other dogs in his past life. Not surprising as so many dogs who come to us have come from less than ideal homes. Palmer has been working hard at learning good leash manners! He is a strong boy and does best walked on a pinch collar which is preferable to a gentle leader since he hates something over his face and seems to like the pinch best.

Palmer loves other dogs. Perhaps too much at times! He tends to get quite excited when he sees them when on leash and so we are working on him being less happy to see them. As he meets more and more dogs while on leash, they become less novel to him and as such, less of a big deal. His new owners will need to be commited to continuing to expose him to tons of other dogs and working on his leash skills.

Palmer will do best with a dog savvy owner or owners who will provide lots of exercise and training. He will do great with another friendly canine companion too. But can do fine as a one and only provided lots of enrichment is provided.

Palmer will not do well left alone long hours in a yard - especially in a new home. His new home should keep Palmer inside when alone and since he is totally housebroken and not destrucitve, this should be no problem.

Palmer has not been tested with cats so we will not consider cat homes at this time

Palmer is a larger boy at about 80 plus pounds and is quite beautiful. He has a fabulous otter tail and striking good looks. His temperament is one of love and happiness and it will take just the right owner to let him continue to learn so he can be the best he can be.

This healthy fellow is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Powder adopted!

Meet Powder, a darling female purebred Labrador who has stolen our hearts with her sweetness and smile.

Powder is a 9-10 year old female yellow Labrador. She is a petite thing at only about 60 lbs and she is a very light cream/white color.

Powder is a medium to lower energy Lab with a playful side. She absolutely loves all people and all dogs. She likes to carry toys around now and then but not too much into them over all. And she will play with other dogs though she prefers gentle play.

This beautifully bred, very pretty Lab came to us from the shelter where she was left by her family.  We were told her owners lost their home and were forced to turn her in. We are not certain if she was ever permitted in the house however as she was afraid to come inside at first in her foster home though now she is comfortable anywhere in the home.

Powder has a lovely temperament and is pure joy to have around. She know "sit", "stay", and "shake" and is just wonderful on the leash walking and meeting other dogs.

Powder is housebroken and does find left alone in the house at times. She is also very good riding in the car.

Though she is a senior gal, Powder is in great shape. She has no lumps or bumps and is pretty sound overall. She is on a nice glucosamine supplement and her new owner should keep her weight in check and continue glucosamine to keep her feeling her best.

Everyone who meets Powder loves her. She has the best qualities of the breed and is a wonderful dog.

Powder is very gentle and calm but she is also quite mouthy although she doesn't put pressue on you with her teeth. As such we will not place her with children under 12.

She is spayed, up to date n vaccines, microchipped and current on flea control. She has also been wormed.

DeeDee adopted!

Meet DeeDee, an adorable yellow dudley female who is a gorgeous butterscotch love. DeeDee is a medium sized female 6-year old Labby.

DeeDee gets along great with all other dogs. She is an easy going girl who takes things in stride and loves everyone. She is fostered with another more dominant female dog and they get along great. She has met lots of other dogs as well and does beautifully.

DeeDee came to us from an inland shelter where her owners left her becuase they were moving. She had previously lived with another dog and with children.

DeeDee is a medium energy, mellow girl. She walks pretty well on the leash and loves her walks. She passes other dogs nicely. She'll do great with a couple easy walks each day. She would enjoy a trip to the park now and then perhaps or a walk on the beach too. She's really just an easy girl.

DeeDee rides nicely in the car - even with other dogs. She is quiet and looks out the window.

She is a good girl in the house and is not destructive. She is housebroken as well though any new dog must be taken out a lot at first until they learn your routine.

We don't know how DeeDee will do with cats so we will not be placing her with them.

DeeDee would do great as your one and only or with another friendly canine companion.

She is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. Her new owners should plan on having a nice anethesia free teeth cleaning sometime in the future.

Dexter adopted!

Meet Dexter, a gentle, adorable, purebred male Labrador who is a major love bug and about the nicest Lab you'll meet

Dexter is a gentle giant. At about 90 lbs he's a big body pillow of a Lab and just as squishy and snuggly. He is the calmest, sweetest boy.

Dexter is a jet black shiny fellow with a beautiful blocky head, soulful eyes, and a gorgeous face. He's truly stunning to look at but his looks are not half as great as his temperament. He has a fabulous friendly temperament and disposition.

Dexter was turned into an inland shelter by his owner who was moving. We don't know the exact circumstances but we can tell that overall, Dexter was a dog that was reasonably well loved in his past life. He is so well adjusted and loves people and other dogs so much that it's clear to us that someone did care for him and provide him good socialization.

Dexter also clearly has been in the car many times. He'll jump right in, settle down, and loves to ride along.

This fella is wonderful with other dogs and all people. He would do great with another friendly canine or as your one and only true love.

We think Dexter will do fine with older kids. He would probably be great even with babies but at his size we know he could knock a toddler over so we think kids over age 7 are best.

Dexter is food motivated and knows sit and down. He wants to please and if you wanted to, this is a boy who would quickly learn dog tricks. It might be fun to try some new tricks with this ready-to-please Labby.

Dexter is housebroken and non-destructive. He loves to be near his person and is a quiet an calm friend in the home.

Dexter is not super playful with toys and doesn't seem to want to retrieve much. But he loves other dogs and has enjoyed swimming in the ocean with his foster dad.

Dexter is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. All he needs now is the perfect home that will treasure him fur-ever.

Duffy adopted!

Meet Duffy!  Oh this guy is a real find!  He is a happy, sweet, gorgeous boy with the most beautiful burnt sugar eyes that will melt your heart.

And he is one of our most favorite ever rescued Labs. He is just about the best dog in the world.

He is an adorable boy with a goofy look on his big old head that makes you not be able to stop hugging him. His sweetness and his dopiness combined is just too hard to resist for any of us.

This boy is about 65 pounds with a gorgeous face & droopy jowels. He is underweight and needs to gain at least 10 pounds.  He would be at his ideal weight at around 75-80 pounds.   He is a gentle boy. His feet look like snowshoes! And this guy is a gentle bear cub of a dog. Just lovely. Mild mannered, calm, but with just the right amount of playfulness. He is pure perfection perfect for almost any family.
 
Duffy came to us from one of the highest kill shelters in the state. When we met him, we knew he needed to be saved.  Our volunteer just adored this boy!! And exactly the kind of Labrador we love to save. He is a real prize.
 
Duffy is a mostly mellow boy on the calmer side who loves to hang out with other dogs. He would make a great companion to another doggie, or would do well as your one and only boy.  He is fostered with a few other Labs and Goldens and he gets along fabulously with all of them!  He can even be found giving kisses to a couple of his favorite foster sisters.  He really adores other dogs and has a nice degree of playfulness too.

Duffy, though pretty mellow, has medium energy and loves his walks! He is pretty good on the leash too, however he does pull at times when first walking out the door, but settles in well to a nice walking stride.  He loves his walks, dog park and really just going anywhere. He would love to go to dog beach or anywhere there are other dogs and he also likes to ride in the car.  

He settles beautifully in the house after his exercise and is completely housebroken and non-destructive.

 Duffy is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Luna Skye adopted!

Here's her updated bio - I kept myself as the contact as I know this dog.
 
Luna Skye (or just Luna for short) is a darling fox red Labby girl who is about as sweet as they come. This girl is on the petite smaller side at just 65 lbs and is a cute bundle of love. Luna is 1 year old  and is a sweet, loving girl.
 
The Fox Red labs are truly very rare!  She is a beautiful girl, with a gorgeous coloring and nice black eyeliner to accentuate her sweet & loving eyes.

Even though she is young, Luna is the perfect mix of mellow and playful. She is great for dog park or to play with another friendly canine companion but then will settle beautifully in the house at your feet. She is not a barker and settles quietly when crated. She also rides nicely in the car so she's great to take on errands or trips.

Because Luna is on the smaller side and she has lived with toddlers in her previous home, she is a good choice for families with children.  Although any Lab - even a petite girl like this - can knock a tiny toddler over. Luna  is still a young girl at only 1 year old so she will do best in a home where someone will have the time for a younger Lab and where she will get plenty of dog park or dog beach and lots of nice walks.
 
Luna came to us when her family could no longer keep her about 3 months ago.  They got her as a puppy and unfortunately lately Luna found herself outside in the backyard a lot with not much attention or affection from her family.  Her family did what is best for Luna by seeking out IndiLab Rescue so that we could help her find a loving new home.  Luna did get adopted, but her family has since realized they are not ready for all that a lab puppy requires - attention, training and lots of exercise.
 
Luna  is wonderful with all dogs.  She is a young, medium energy girl.  She is pretty good on the leash too and passes other dogs nicely. At times she can pull a bit, but she is very, very easy to control and correct. Plus she wants nothing more than to please her person!
 
Luna loves to play fetch and would love a home where she can retrieve every day.  She loves her trips to dog park as well!  Since she is a young lab at only 1 year old, she does require good daily exercise and a puppy proofed home.  She still may chew the wrong thing, so having lots of her own doggie toys and bones and keeping items like cell phones and remote controls out of her reach is best.
 
Luna Skye is completely housebroken and well trained too!  She knows sit, come, stay and shake!  She is a great started puppy who will just need continued reminders of her training as she grows into a great adult canine!

Luna would do well in a home with another playful doggie or as your one and only provided you have the time to exercise a young Labrador every day!  We do not know how she will do around cats though, so no kitties for Luna in her new home.

Luna is a healthy girl who is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Mina adopted!

This is little Mina, a gorgeous show quality bench bred English Labrador. Mina is really a beautiful girl and she is just a little petite thing at only 55 lbs.

Mina is a very, very dark chocolate. She has a beautiful otter tail, round cat paws and a pertty face. She is quite special.

This little girl is shy of people but is coming around. She will do great with an owner who will continue to let her come out of her shell. She loves other dogs and is perfect with cats too. She loves to play and would love another friendly young dog to play with.

Mina loves her walks. She has been going on nice 3 mile off leash walks with her foster mom each day. She is a medium energy young 2 year old and she needs her daily exercise and loves her play time too.

Mina is wonderful in the house with the other foster Labs. She settles nicely and is crate trained and housebroken. She is still learning the doggie door as it's a little scary for her but she's doing very well.

Mina comes to us from a breeder who is downsizing. She has lived most of her life in a kennel environment and is still learning about the outside world. She is slightly shy of new experiences but boy she is doing so great and really blossoming.

Mina is a very loving and gentle girl. She takes treats very gently and she loves her food! Mina would become fat if you let her as she loves to eat!

This young girl will do best in an adult household with another friendly young dog for companionship and to be her sidekick and pal as she warms up to more and more experiences. Her new owner will be patient and will adore this special creature for who she is. She will be fine with cats though in time she might want to play with them. She loves dog park, dog beach, and hiking trails.

Mina is wonderful with every dog she meets. She is a beautiful girl with the sweetest disposition.

Jersey adopted!

Meet Jersey, a perfectly bred English bench bred beauty. What a handsome fellow!

Shhhh!  Don’t tell anyone but Jersey (Joisey to his Wiseguy buddies in his foster home) was broken out of the joint (shelter in Pomona) where he was sentenced and is now ready to enter witness protection with a new family who will love him forever and keep him out of jail.  This guy is as handsome as they come and is about 2 years old.

He is big boy at about 90 pounds with a golden white coat and beautiful perfect labbie ears. This guy is one handsome lab and it is a complete mystery why he was not adopted his first day in the shelter.


He has a beautiful otter tail, and those great dark outlined lab eyes. He has a perfect blocky head but most of all, he has the sweetness for which Labs are treasured.



He is fostered with two other lab brothers and gets along well with them and with the dogs he meets on his walks.  He loves to play and would love another friendly young dog to play with.

Jersey loves to go for a walk and walks well on the leash – especially on a pinch collar. He meets other dogs and people easily. He especially loves a walk before bed time, after which he sleeps through the night in his crate.

Jersey enjoys the dog park with his foster parents where he mostly checks out the many new and interesting doggie smells. He is a medium energy young 2-year-old and he needs his daily exercise. He will play with a rubber ball for a minute, maybe, but so far he is not too interested in fetching or chasing it.



Jersey is wonderful in the house with his Labbie brothers. He settles nicely and is crate-trained and housebroken. He is usually at his foster parents’ feet or lying next to his brothers.



Jersey comes to us from an inland shelter where he was left unclaimed for a week. Being young, he is just learning some simple commands such as stay and sit. His new family will have to continue his training so that he becomes the perfect gentleman.

This big guy likes kids, but might accidentally knock toddlers over so not children under 7 for this guy. Also no homes with cats will be considered since we have not cat tested him.

He will do well in a household with another friendly young dog for companionship and to be his sidekick and pal. 



Jersey is fostered in Westchester near the beach and LAX.

He is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated.



Lexi adopted!

Meet Lexi, a lovely purebred chocolate female Labrador. This 3 year old girl is about 55 pounds and is a lovely combination of playful energy and nice indoor mellowness.
 
Lexi came to us from a local high kill shelter where she truly didn't belong.  Lexi is underweight and should gain about 5-10 pounds.  She will be closer to 65 pounds when she is at her ideal weight.  This sweet girl did not belong in a shelter and deserves a gentle, loving forever home!
She is still a young Lab at age 3 and loves her daily exercise, but she is the perfect mix of fun and easy.  She walks fabulously on leash, never pulling, so she makes a great walking partner!  She would also enjoy hiking, dog park or dog beach and loves to play fetch as well.

Lexi is a very sweet, medium energy girl.  She can be playful with her toys, and likes to play fetch, however she also settles down beautifully after her walk or trip to the park.  She does great with her 2 labbie sisters and would do well in a home with another doggie companion.  She is really just a joy.

Lexi is a little rusty on her commands, so she could use a brush up on some training.  She is a well mannered girl, so just needs a gentle leader to remind her when she needs to sit and stay on command.  
 
Lexi can be timid around loud noises, so we would prefer a home with older children for her as younger kids could startle and scare her.  She is not jumpy and takes treats very well.  
 
Lexi is completely housebroken and not destructive in the house, and settles very well.  She is also a very good girl in the car and just lays down while you drive. She seems to enjoy car rides.
 
Lexi is a super sweet and loving girl and would love a home with another nice doggie and some loving and doting parents.  A gentle leader is best for her as she really does not need a strong hand.  She is very playful with toys and playing fetch, but settles so well in the home and is a well mannered girl.

Lexi is spayed, up to date on shots, and microchipped.

Bishop adopted!

Meet Bishop!  Oh this guy is a real find!  He is a happy, sweet, gorgeous black male lab of 4-5 years.

Bishop is an adorable boy with a goofy look on his big old head that makes you not be able to stop hugging him. His sweetness and is just too hard to resist. He is a very loving, affectionate boy who wants to please and has so much to give.

This boy is about 85 pounds with a gorgeous face. He is a nice fellow who spent the first 4 years of his life growing up in a family with children and another dog.  Bishop came to us when his family could no longer keep 2 dogs, and hence Bishop became in need of a new home.  This boy is easy to have around - a settled, calm, sweet boy.
 
Bishop is great with all other dogs both big and small.  He doesn't play much with other dogs, but enjoys their companionship. 

He would do great at dog park and would even enjoy hikes occasionally.  He pulls a little bit on leash, but corrects well and settles into a nice pace after about 15 minutes. He's a nice guy to walk with.
 
Bishop is completely housebroken. He is a medium energy Labrador who will require his daily exercise after which he settles down perfectly.

Since Bishop grew up in a home with children, we feel confident he would do well in a home with kids.  But keep in mind any lab can get excited and knock a toddler down. Families with very young children need to be certain they have the time needed to acclimate a new rescue dog into their lives.
 
Bishop is an easy going boy - nice to have around the home and loves to be with his people more often than not.  An ideal home for Bishop would be one where he would have a doggie companion and also where his people are home more often.  He likely would not be happy in a home where his people are gone at work all day.

Bishop is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Potter adopted!

Meet Potter, an adorable 2 year old white male Labrador mix. He is a cute boy with a happy personality! He's a gorgeous super pale yellow almost white and he's a great size too!

This incredibly adorable fellow is on the petite side at only about 50 lbs.  He is thin and maybe can put on a few pounds and will fill out nicely. He has soulful eyes, and a delicate demenor. Everyone who meets Potter loves him.

Potter is always smiling and playful and happy. He loves people, children and he loves dogs. He loves to play and gets along beautifuly with the Lab and little Chi mix he is fostered with.

Potter will do great with young retired people or with families with children. He'll even do with with a single active person. He would love having someone toss the ball for him or play with him, take him on nice walks, cuddle him and adore him!

Potter has a sweet, playful energy. He loves his walks, dog park, and play time. He is a good boy on the leash and passes other dogs nicely.

Potter loves to eat and is very food motivated. Not surprising as he came from the street and was probably starving at some point! He loves to eat his food and will sit nicely for a treat. This is a dog you could teach lots of fun tricks to if you wanted to have fun.

Potter has a sad story. He was living on the streets in Taiwan and hanging around a specifc neighborhood. People there were chasing him away with sticks and throwing rocks at him. Several people hit him with sticks. He was caught and taken to a shelter where he was rescued by someone who knew him and had witnessed this treatment. It is amazing that he was treated so harshly and yet still loves and trusts people so much. He just is so friendly to all!

He has the typical Lab personality. Always happy, always wiggly, and always smiling.

Potter is a fun guy. He is housebroken and crate trained and a very good boy in the house. He loves to be pet, and snuggled and he loves his person so much. He sleeps through the night and settles beautifully in the house.

He will do great with another young playful companion or as your one and only.

Potter is absolutely adorable, wants to please his person and has a perfectly Labby temperament.

Potter is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Jacoby adopted!

Here's Jacoby, a  1 1/2 year old purebred Labrador male. He is a mild and sweet boy who is just adorable. He has a glossy black coat and has the most gorgeous blocky face.

Jacoby is extremely lovable and will make a wonderful forever dog for the right home. He's a typical young adorable Lab with a ton of love and a wonderful temperament. He has a nice personality and a gentle demenor and he is wonderful in the house.

Jacoby is absolutely perfect on the leash. You can walk him on one finger and he is perfect. You will have less trouble walking Jacoby than almost any other dog on the site.

Jacoby's parents were victims of today's economy, and thought Jacoby would be easier to place than their senior lab, and reluctantly gave him up so that we could find him a forever home. He has previously been very loved and treasured and we hope to provide him exactly that going forward. He sure is worth it!

He will do best in a home where someone is around quite a bit in the beginning as he settles in, and will probably do well with another friendly dog to be his side kick.

He is completely pottytrained, and will sleep in a crate, although he isn't fond of it. He really does not need the crate however as he is housebroken and such a good boy in the house. He knows sit, down and shakes hands like a pro.

Jacoby doesn't fully understand what the cats are in his foster home. He seems a little afraid of them. He is young and once he figures out cats, he might want to play, but he won't hurt a cat.  Not to say he won't bark at a cat, but he would do great in a cat savvy home.

Jacoby is a fast learner and corrects easily. He wants to be a good boy and will do great in an obedience class if you want. He had formerly completed puppy obedience with his last owner.

Jacoby will need a forever home that has the time for a young dog. He will need and all the love and patience necessary to ensure he grows into a beloved, happy, family dog he so wants to be. He has the solid temperament, all that's needed is the solid ownership only a commited person or family can provide.

Jacoby is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Hannah adopted!

Meet Hannah, the sweetest most mellow female Labrador. Hannah is a nice looking purebred bench bred Lab with a beautiful blocky head and a sweet gentle expression on her face. She is 6 years old and just perfect.

Hannah is a very happy girl and is very calm. She loves other dogs and cats and is easy going around them. She won't chase a cat and is wonderful with all dogs she meets.

She's a very beautiful Lab. Beautiful conformation and darling face. Everyone comments on how gorgeous and sweet Hannah is!

Hannah loves her walks and doesn't pull on the leash. She likes a shorter walk maybe twice a day. She can do the dog park or the beach or her walks but is a mellow English girl who can also just hang out at home and lay at your feet while you watch TV or go on the computer.

She loves her doggie bed and won't get on the furniture. She is not destrucitve and very good in the house. She is also housebroken and uses the doggie door on her own to go potty.

Hannah came to us from our sister rescue in Taiwan. She was found on the street with a litter of pups - all of whom died save one who was adopted out. It was apparent right away how lovely and sweet Hannah was and we knew we could find a dog this lovely a home very easily.

Hannah is extremely calm. The only time she gets very excited is with food. She loves her food and treats! Hannah has a tendency to eat her food fast and her foster mom is using the slow-eat style food dish which works great! Hannah will eat quick and then go take food from other dog's bowls so it's best to use a slow feed bowl and feed her a couple feet away from the other dogs. She loves her chow! Luckliy she is not a fatty.

Becuase she likes her cookies so much, she is very easy to train. Although she is such a good easy girl we're not sure what you would want to train her to do. Her big skill is making super cute faces and being adorable.

Ivy Lin adopted!

Meet Ivy, the most darling, 6 year old, female, yellow purebred Labrador.  Ivy is a mellow, affectionate girl who wins the hearts of every person and dog she meets!

Ivy is a beautiful, soft, petite girl weighing in at about 50 lbs.  Not only is she an ideal size, she also has gorgeous, long, blonde eyelashes.  She is such a lovely, little lady. She is polite and delicate and gentle and we just adore her so.

Ivy came to us from our sister rescue in Taiwan.  She was found living in a cemetery, where people were feeding her boxed lunches. made of rice and chicken and fish. She was so sweet that our volunteer took her home and the rest is history! We are so glad to have her because has been such a joy, and we can't wait to find this deserving girl the most loving home.

Ivy is quite a calm, gentle, happy girl.  She is completely housebroken and has the most wonderful house manners.  She likes to sleep on her doggie bed and doesn't jump on furniture.  She knows her commands "sit", "stay", "down", and "shake".  She loves being with her person.  Her favorite activity is to climb in her foster mom's lap for a head rub.  She just loves to snuggle.  She also enjoys playing with her soft toys.

It's easy to have her around as she is quiet and gente. She will lay at your feet as you read or work. She loves her belly rubs and loves to give and recieve affection.

Ivy loves going on walks and does so beautifully on leash.  She is prone to occasionally give a warning bark at a passing bicycle or a strange noise but corrects very easily.  She is great with other dogs and even with cats.  She is also good with children.

Ivy is great in the car.  She hops right in and settles nicely.  She likes lay near her person in the car and sometimes stick her head out the window.  She would make the ideal traveling companion.

Ivy is so amazing that she could be your one and only or in a home with other dogs and cats or with children.  She would also make a wonderful companion for someone who's retired.  

Ivy is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.  She does have a touch of arthritis in her hind legs, but this doesn't stop her from walks or playing or enjoying her life.  We would love her new family to please give her a nice glucosamine supplement.

She needs her 1-2 short walks each day and that is about it! The rest is just love and cuteness.

Michelle adopted!

Meet Michelle, a mellow, yellow Labbie girl!  Her foster mom says she's as sweet and gentle as they come and is one of the best labs ever!  She is about 7-8 years old and is a purebred yellow female Lab.
 
Michelle is super easy and could even go to work with you!  Her favorite activity is to lounge around at your feet like a little froggy with her back feet extended behind her - darling as can be!  
 
Michelle is a lower energy girl - some may even call her a couch potato. But when you get the leash out she shows her true labbie wiggles as she gets excited to go somewhere! 

True to her lab nature she gets excited around food as well! She loves her food and her treats!

Michelle would love a couple walks a day, and even to ride around in the car with you as you run errands or pick the kids up from school... she's a great car rider.
 
Michelle is one lucky girl who came to us all the way from the streets of Taiwan!  After a full health exam and receiving all her vaccines and more, she was on her way to us in California and is now ready to find her forever home! 

She is fabulous around every dog she meets, both big and small and even does great around cats too!  Michelle would be a great choice for a family with kitties.
 
She loves to be pet and cuddled and would do great around children too!  She loves every person she meets and would enjoy strolls to the local coffee shop to meet and greet or anywhere else you want to take her.  She truly can go anywhere with ease.
 
As is true with many labs her age, Michelle has a bit of arthritis so would likely be happiest in a single story home where she doesn't have to climb lots of steps every day to be with her family.  She would do well as your one and only or with another doggie or kittie companion.
 
Michelle is spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

Dubi adopted!

Meet Dubi, an adorable 4 year old female purebred Labrador with a smile to melt your heart and a sunny personality to makes everyone love her!

Dubi is a wonderful loving girl. She was a beloved pet for her whole life and has never suffered. Dubi came to us because her owner is dying of cancer and wanted us to find her a perfect fur-ever home before she passed away. We promised we would make that happen. Her owner lives in Taipai, Taiwan and paid to send Dubi to us to help her. She wanted t be certain Dubi would have the best life.

Dubi loves all people and all other dogs. She loves dog park and her walks and loves to swim in her foster parents swimming pool! She is an excellent swimmer!

Dubi is a good girl on the leash and walks nicely. She passes other dogs nicely too saying hello to all. She is great in the car and has been riding in the car with her foster siblings to the dog park every day where she has even more friends. Everyone loves Dubi.

Dubi is a good girl in the house. She is not destructive, is totally housebroken, and is easy going. She loves to lay on the dog beds or the cool hardwood floor where she puts her back legs out like a little froggie. She is darn adorable!

Dubi would love a home with someone around a lot and with another friendly dog to be pals with. She would love a pool too but if you don't have one, maybe she can visit a pool now and then or visit the beach.

Dubi is truly a wonderful, happy, and adorable Labrador. Whoever adopts her is sure to fall in love.

Waldorf adopted!

Waldorf is a very beautiful purebred white male Labrador.  This sweet dudley boy is 3-4 years old and is a medium sized, mellow and calm boy. He is sweet as sugar and makes lots of cute dopey faces all day long causing his foster mom to smille constantly.
 
Waldorf came to us from a high kill inland shelter.   He had come down with kennel cough and eventually came down with pnemonia. Waldorf also was suffering from the effects of a poor diet and had a few wounds on his elbows and ears. He had been neglected clearly, but his heart was intact. Seeing him now this beautiful and healthy, it's hard to remember him in the shelter. He is really a gorgeous purebred Labrador.

Waldorf has very nice house manners too!  He stays off the couch and furniture and enjoys resting blissfully in his doggie bed.  He is also completely housebroken and nondestructive.
 
Waldorf is all goofy boy and rarely barks. He loves all dogs and is very cute with them.  He will do fine as your one and only doggie or great with a submissive canine companion. He is not cat tested so we prefer not to place him with kitties at this time.
 
Waldorf came to us not knowing any commands.  He is a quick learner and loves treats and pleasing - the perfect combo to train a dog!  He already knows sit, down, and his stay. Wow is he smart!!  He will make someone a great companion!  Best of all he is not a jumper, when he is excited he wiggles and bows and makes cute faces at you.
 
Waldorf loves his walks just like all Labradors.  He can’t wait to go and will sit nicely for you to get his leash.  His foster mom uses the gentle lead collar and gets great results. He is a low to medium energy boy who does great on walks and comes hom and settles right down. If you a looking for a jogging partner, Waldorf can be your buddy, but for a running partner, he is just too mellow.
 
Waldorf is food motivated like other Labbies and he likes to please you too!  Like many labs, he must be fed a quality grain free diet to avoid things like ear problems and coat and skin issues. Labrador simply do best on grain free foods!
 
Waldorf loves kids to but we think children over age 8 would be best as he can be enthusiastic when taking treats and may accidentally knock a wee toddler over.  This boy would love the attention of older kids.  He deserves a family that has time to play fetch and interact with him daily.  He has so much love and affection to give; his new family will be rewarded 1000%.
 
Waldorf enjoys all grooming.  He loves his backyard baths and makes super cute faces for you.  He even like having his ears cleaned!
 
Waldorf is neutered and up to date on vaccines and flea control.
