There are specific lab rescues out there that would be happy to take him/her! I know of fetchingcompanions.org. It shouldn't be a problem to get rid of a lab, a lot of folks would like one! Good luck!

Are you local to the los angeles area. I would love to see if the dog is a good fit for my family. It's my husband and I and our 2yr old son. We had a choclate lab a few years ago but had to give him aways because we were in an apt. We now have a home with a great backyard and I would love to have another lab.

Hey P., i have always been a dog lover and am always picking up strays and finding them homes. What I've done in the past is ask everyone I know including the mail man if they know anyone that wants a pet. I also take pictures or video with my cell phone and show them to people I know are just as pasionate about animals as i am. just be patient and someone great will come along!

Hi P.,

I just had to find a new home for my Lab I highly reccomend So cal Lab rescue at sclrr.org. They were able to match great pre approved families, for our dog. I felt really good about the family that came over and they ended up taking our pooch. Lab rescue really loves labs and wants the best for them! Good luck! Carolyn

Hi P.,

have you tried any Lab Rescue Organizations? A purebred Lab will be easy to place.

Here is link to a So Cal Lab Rescue http://www.sclrr.org/

Good Luck!

Where do you live??

Please do not bring him to a shelter.

Hi! Labs go fast - in which you might be lucky in this case, but I would google Lab rescue or Lab foster care. I know that some people take in animals on a temporary basis and then find them a permanent home - theres got to be a network for this. My friend fosters Min Pins! My other suggestion would be to email out to ALL your friends - it's viral marketing then they forward this to everyone they know. That's how another one of my friends found her golden retriever! Good luck!

I would contact your local Vet's and/or put an add in the Penny Saver. It is really hard when you have to give up a pet! Sorry for what you're going through!

why are you trying to get rid of this dog? Is he good with kids??
