My story

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

Trigger is a seven-year-old, 60-pound purebred English lab that was rescued from a breeder, who retired him years ago, along with 13 other dogs, and relegated them to concrete kennels, behind a fenced enclosure, where they were basically abandoned. Trigger and the others were dying a slow death from heartworms until a neighbor found a dog that had escaped and discovered the horror show behind the fence at the top of the hill. Trigger is in a home now and has acclimated beautifully. He is good with other dogs, kids, and even cats. In his previous life, his meals were thrown on the ground, and it took a while for him to eat from a bowl. Trigger is ready for his new life and will be an excellent companion. If you would like to foster to adopt Trigger, please go to www.atlantalabrescue.com and apply.

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.
