Lab Rescue of NC is overwhelmed every day with the number of labs that end up in animal shelters throughout North Carolina. We are unable to take the majority of these wonderful dogs into our foster program due to the limited number of foster homes we have. Most of those Labradors we can not pull from shelters are having to be killed by the shelters to make room for more dogs coming in.
If you would like to help save a Labrador's life but cannot permanently adopt a dog at this time, please consider fostering. Short term and long term foster homes are desperately needed! To volunteer as a foster home please fill out a foster home application here! If you have questions about becoming a foster home please email us at LRNC@labrescuenc.org
Due to the number of dogs we had to treat for heartworms and the number of dogs needing surgery other than spaying/neutering, our average cost per dog in 2005 was just over $600. Our adoption fee is only $275 per dog. That leaves us relying on approximately $325 per dog in donations! So please, if you can spare a donation in any amount, donate today to help save another Labrador life. We and the Labs would be very thankful!
