My story

7/7: Update on turbo: he did really well with the cats in the office today.
We let out a kitten to meet him and he was so gentle with him. And he didn’t mind whiskers at all.

6/12/2023-update: Turbo is now 81 lbs and 2 years. He loads up into the truck really well and is the perfect passenger prince 🤴
No cats.

6/22-Turbo is a stunning young boy of 1 year and 60lbs. He is a very friendly and easygoing dog. Enjoys going on walks, prefers a harness rather than a collar. He has a very fitting name, as he is very energetic and fast. Great for companion outdoor activities!
Side note: he likes close ups

Why adoption is a great option

Turbo, a Uvalde Labrador Retriever dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever for sale in Uvalde, or seeking a Labrador Retriever dog from a breeder in Uvalde.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Uvalde already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Uvalde breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Labrador Retriever breeders who help with Labrador Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Uvalde paves the way for another one to be saved.
