Story
Marty is a very friendly boy who was found near the border, jumping on cars and searching for his previous family. Luckily, a kind person brought him to us so he could get the care he deserves. Marty is around 1.5 years old and we believe he's a mix of Flat-Coated Retriever, Lab, and Border Collie. He walks well on leash, knows his basic commands, and is very food motivated. Marty is eager to please and truly a lovely boy. He absolutely loves to play and has a fun, energetic personality. Because he can be a bit mouthy during play, he would do best in a home with dog-savvy kids who understand his playful nature. Marty gets along great with other dogs and loves romping around at the dog park. He would thrive with an active family that can give him plenty of exercise, playtime, and love. If you think you're ready to add to your family by adopting Marty, then fill out an adoption questionnaire on our website today! We recommend completing the questionnaire and connecting with an adoption coach before looking for a dog or puppy you'd like to adopt. If you're already approved to adopt or if you've adopted from Labs and More before, connect with your adoption coach for the next steps. Your interest in adopting a rescued dog or puppy from Labs and More Rescue is appreciated! Please find our adoption information at www.labsandmore.org. Your adoption donation provides funding for Labs and More, a nonprofit organization which is supported solely by Volunteers and funded by donations. Good news is your adoption donation can be considered tax deductible. So much care is provided to your new dog prior to the adoption, including: spay and neuter, microchip, veterinarian visit(s), vaccinations, and other medical care as needed. Many of the dogs we rescue require extensive surgeries and care prior to adoption. Please understand we are unable to predict future behavior or medical needs of your adopted dog. We provide no guarantees regarding behavior, breed, or age of the dogs. Thank you for rescuing.Thank you for joining the Adoption Family with Labs and More Rescue. We are here to help you find a furry companion. You will find our quick and easy adoption application at www.labsandmore.org and click on Adopt. Please email us at I doginfo@labsandmore.org if you need assistance. Thank you for looking to a rescue group to fulfill your dream of adding a new dog to your life!

Story
Meet Rambo From loss… to survival… to learning how to trust again. Rambo’s story is one of heartbreak and resilience. After losing his owner, he and three other dogs were left behind—unnoticed and unattended. His father was found deceased, still tied to a chain. In a desperate fight to survive, Rambo and his brother Ruckus broke free. When help finally arrived, Rambo watched everything he knew disappear. His mother was taken and later humanely laid to rest due to cancer. Rambo himself was trapped days later—separated from his brother and placed into a shelter where fear and confusion took over. But then… everything changed. Ruckus was found. And when they were reunited, Rambo finally began to heal. Today, Rambo is a gentle, soulful dog with the most tender eyes. He may take a little time to trust, but once he does, he becomes a loyal, loving companion who just wants to be near his person. Perks  Sweet, calm, and affectionate  Loves toys (especially balls )  Enjoys walks, car rides, and outings  Happy to relax by your side  Needs  Calm, patient home  Crate when unattended  Secure yard (supervised only)  Extra awareness with doors and leash (flight risk)  Ideal Home Rambo's ideal home would have a quiet, stable environment with someone who is home often or has a steady routine. He would love to be adopted with his brother, Ruckus, although it isn't required. Rambo has been through more than most dogs ever should—but he hasn’t lost his ability to love. He just needs someone to give him a chance… to feel safe again, and to finally have the forever home he deserves. ##1338938##

Story
Meet Ruckus Sweet, sweet Ruckus… where do we begin? Ruckus is looking for a home where he can shine on his own time. With love and patience, his true personality will come out—and he will be the most incredible companion. After his owner passed, Ruckus and three other dogs were left behind, unnoticed. His father died still tied to a chain. In the chaos, Ruckus and his brother broke free—but one by one, his family was taken, leaving him alone… often found sleeping beside his father’s body. A kind neighbor stepped in, and we were able to get him to safety and reunite him with his brother, Rambo. That reunion changed everything. Ruckus slowly began to open up, finding comfort and healing alongside him. Perks  Sweet, soulful, teddy bear energy Calm, gentle, and loves quiet companionship and constant touch  Food motivated—treats win him over   Low-key, easygoing homebody  Needs   Flight risk – must be handled carefully  Never unattended in a yard  Crated when alone  Secure leash at all times  NEVER off-leash in unfenced areas  Ideal Home Ruckus would thrive in a calm, quiet home with someone who's around often. He loves the simple life—lounging, watching TV, and just being near his person. A secure yard for supervised time is ideal. Quiet walks may come with time, but busy environments aren’t his thing. He would LOVE to be adopted with his brother Rambo (please ask!), but understands if that’s not possible. All Ruckus is asking for is a safe place to land and someone to believe in him... could that be you? ##1338937##
