Dedicated to the rescue and adoption of homeless Labrador Retrievers in the Southeast region.

LFS relies solely on donations, fundraising events, and adoption fees to function and continue saving and placing homeless Labradors. We do not receive any state or federal funding.  LFS is an all-volunteer organization of people who give their time and effort out of a love for labs.  Our goal is to protect and save them from the perils of pet over population and irresponsible pet ownership.  Our ultimate goal is to help these dogs find new, loving, forever homes.

The Labradors in our program receive veterinary care and temperament testing before being eligible for adoption.  Since our goal is to place our Labradors in forever homes, we consider each Labrador’s history (if known), temperament, training, and other skills, and energy level. We then assess each adopting family’s preferences, home environment, lifestyle, and personality in order to make the best possible match for successful adoption.

Labrador Retrievers and Labrador Retriever mixes are the most popular family pets in the country.  Unfortunately, this statistic means that they are the most likely to end up in animal shelters as strays or unwanted pets.  Perfectly healthy, sweet-tempered Labs are put to sleep every day, sometimes without the benefit of a painless euthanasia drug, simply because there are not enough good homes for them.
