My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Jesse is a five-year-old, 65-pound silver lab that wandered onto a property because their dog was in heat. Someone recognized the dog and claimed that the owner was from AL, and somehow, the dog was dumped in GA. The person whose property he was on said he was very sweet, friendly, and good with all her dogs and cats. She neglected to mention that he had an injured front leg that caused him to limp. Supposedly, per the person who knew him from AL, it was an old injury, but unfortunately, the x-rays showed that it would need to be amputated. No good deed goes unpunished. Now, a dog that we thought sounded perfect and would get adopted fast will need someone who doesn’t mind a three-legged dog. He hasn’t used that leg for a while, so managing without it should be a breeze. We want to find a foster or adopter to take him before we do the surgery and get him settled. We had not planned on a “special needs” dog and didn’t have a foster and hate for him to go to boarding. If you want to adopt or foster to adopt Jesse, please click the “Adopt” button and submit an Adoption application. If you can help foster, visit our Foster page and submit a Foster application.

More about this rescue

Atlanta Lab Rescue is an all volunteer, non-profit (501-c3) organization, whose volunteers have years of rescue experience. Our mission is to identify and rescue Labrador Retrievers and large breed mixes from overwhelmed shelters and abusive situations and place them in secure, loving homes. We average 30-40 dogs in the program at any given time and in our first 10 years, we have rescued over 3500 dogs.

Prior to an Atlanta Lab Rescue dog being adopted, each dog undergoes an extensive examination by our veterinarians, including a comprehensive blood profile, is updated on all vaccinations, spayed or neutered and micro chipped. Health issues that require additional treatment such as heartworms, surgery, etc, are addressed prior to adoption. In addition, each adoption includes free access to our Atlanta Lab Rescue trainer. At Atlanta Lab Rescue we firmly believe that a healthy, well trained dog is the key to the successful integration of a rescued dog and ensures a wonderful, loving companion for years to come.
