My story

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

Busch is a five-year-old, 85-pound purebred German Shepherd that was picked up as a stray by the shelter (can you believe that?). His foster says that he is very sweet and playful. Loves attention and getting petted. He is well-behaved indoors with minor corrections for table surfing. Busch is housetrained. They’re working on bell training, and he seems to be responsive already. He enjoys going outside and walks well on a leash, but he sometimes pulls to go where he wants to go, so kids will not be able to walk him. Busch sleeps on the floor in their room all night and has been fine when crated for shorter periods when the fosters are gone. He met their cat and was curious enough to chase her. The foster doesn’t have a dog but he was fine when tested at the shelter. If you would like to foster-to-adopt Busch, please visit 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.
