My story

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

Meet Macy – Available for Adoption in New England!


If sunshine had a wet nose and wagging tail, it would look exactly like Macy. After undergoing TPLO surgery earlier this year, this sweet girl is officially back in tip-top shape thanks to the incredible generosity and love from our supporters. Because of you, she’s thriving, strong, and ready for her forever family in New England!


At 3 1/2 years old and 60lbs, Macy is the kind of dog who loves everyone she meets. She’s wonderful with children and friendly with other dogs. Her easygoing, patient nature makes her an instant fit for so many homes. Whether she’s trotting along on a walk, exploring the backyard, or curled up at your feet, she radiates a steady, grateful sweetness that makes her impossible not to love.

In her foster home, Macy is a total dream. She’s house trained, crate trained, and knows basic commands. She has excellent manners around people, food, and other dogs, and she blends into a household routine like she’s always belonged there. No drama, no chaos, just a calm, happy companion who brightens every day.


Macy would thrive in a family home, especially an active one with kids, or with someone who enjoys both adventures and cozy downtime. She loves being included in whatever you’re doing and is equally content being your hiking buddy, your snuggle partner, or your loyal shadow around the house.

She is vaccinated, microchipped, spayed, and ready to start her next chapter!

If you’re looking for a dog who’s playful yet relaxed, social yet easygoing, and endlessly loving, Macy is your girl. You can apply to adopt her on our website ⁦www.luckylabrescue.com⁩!

More about this rescue

When lucky Labs come into Lucky Lab Rescue, they are immediately vetted with vaccinations, spayed or neutered, heartworm tested and wormed for internal parasites. All dogs receive complete veterinary care before they are adopted out. Also at Lucky Lab Rescue, each dog is temperament tested and evaluated for any signs of aggression and for activity level. Since our goal is to place our Labs in forever homes, it is important to know the general personality of each Lab, as we want to match potential adopters with dogs that would be the best possible fit for a successful adoption.

Most Labs that come into Lucky Lab Rescue are from shelters. Most are at risk of euthanasia, usually due to overcrowded shelters. Labs are one of the most popular breeds of dogs due to their loyal and family-oriented personalities. Labs are also one of the most overbred breeds and are the number one breed to be found in shelters. They also have one of the highest euthanasia rates. Some find it difficult that rescues can be breed specific, however, Lucky Lab Rescue and other Lab rescues make a huge impact on euthanasia rates just by rescuing Labs and Lab mixes alone.

The most popular color of Labs are yellow and chocolate. They tend to get rescued and adopted more often than black labs. Some shelters will automatically euthanize black Labs and some rescue organizations will accept the yellow and chocolate over the black Lab. We at Lucky Labs love our yellows and chocolates, but also feel very committed to rescuing black Labs due to their plight.

"The plight of the black dog refers to the low adoption rate and high
euthanization rate of black dogs in shelters. Black dogs are often
the last to be adopted from an animal shelter. You may not be
aware of how doomed black dogs are when they are brought
to the average animal shelter. Black dogs, particularly large
black dogs like Labradors or Lab mixes,have a very difficult
time getting adopted, and are euthanized at a staggering rate at
many animal control facilities throughout the country. The sad truth is, they are overlooked in favor of lighter colored dogs."
