Story
7 y old Minnie and 8 y old Bella were surrendered to rescue when their former owner fell ill. Even though they are non-related, they lived together their entire lives since they were puppies, so we would like for them to go to a forever home together, as they are quite bonded. Even though they are two dogs, they truly are very quiet and easy to manage, as their foster mom will tell you. They are both extremely sweet, loving, well-mannered pups, who are going to be a great addition to any loving home. They are not only potty trained but also crate trained, and well-behaved and low-maintenance companions. They are good with dogs, cats, and kids, and are usually very quiet, unless someone is at the door. They currently live in a foster home with multiple dogs and 4 cats and get along with each one of them. They are both 55 lb, current on their shots, kept on heartworm and flea preventative, and are spayed and microchipped. They have a zest for life, and love going on walks, hikes, and exploring new places. They both understand basic commands like sit, down, shake, crate, outside, and stay and are eager to learn more. Bella is a basenji mix has a sweet tooth for treats! Whether it's for training, rewards, or just because, she will happily sit, stay, and give you those heartwarming puppy eyes in exchange for a tasty treat. She knows commands such as sit, down, outside, crate, and stay. She has an abundance of love and affection to offer! Bella is a certified kissing expert. She will shower you with kisses and snuggles, making every day a little brighter. Bella is not just a companion; she is a family member. She is loyal, protective, and incredibly loving. She has a heart of gold. Minnie is a lab mix, who is a social butterfly and adores being around people. She thrives on human interaction, and her tail never stops wagging when she receives pets and attention. If you love to go on walks, Minnie is the ideal companion. She eagerly embraces the opportunity to explore the great outdoors with her leash on. Both pups are delightful and well-trained family pets who used to be regulars at their daycares, where they enjoyed playing with pups of all sizes. They are being fostered in Texas, but can travel to any state, and even Canada for the right home.

Story
Estimated date of birth 4/27/2023, weight 37 lbs. Meet Oreo!  This sweetheart was abandoned in a park and followed her foster dad home one night when he was out walking his two small dogs.  Oreo loves belly rubs, going to the dog park, toys, road trips, and treats.    Oreo’s an energetic youngster that is full of curiosity and loves to play.  She's goofy and clumsy but she’s a fast learner and is picking up on commands and how to be a good girl on leash.  She would make a great family dog. She’s happy in her crate but really would do best in a home with a backyard and a canine older brother.

Story
The Energetic Explorer!  Est DOB 6/6/2021, weight 60 lb. Meet Coal! Are you ready to add a burst of energy and a whole lot of love to your life? Look no further than Coal, the wonder dog with a blend of Black Lab, German Shepherd, and Catahoula Leopard in his DNA, making him a true one-of-a-kind pup! Coal's journey has been a bit of a rollercoaster. Once an owner surrender who lost his way and had to rely on his instincts to survive on the street, now he is a free-spirited explorer in his foster home. While he's mastered the basics like 'sit,' 'down,' and 'paw/shake,' this eager beaver is still learning and yearning for the guidance of a loving family. Here's what makes Coal's tail wag with excitement: 1. **Tummy Rubs:** The key to his heart! Give him a belly rub, and you'll unlock a world of joy. 2. **Playing:** Whether it's fetch, tug-of-war, or a game of chase, Coal is always up for some fun and games. His boundless energy is sure to keep you entertained! 3. **Chewing:** A good chew toy is a must for Coal. It helps channel his energy and keeps him happily occupied and keeps anything edible or chewable, i.e. treats, cords, shoes, etc. out of his range. 4. **Walks:** Coal loves to explore the world one step at a time. He's an eager walker, but he's still learning the fine art of loose leash-walking. Coal is a social butterfly when it comes to other dogs, making him a perfect companion for playdates at the dog park. As for other animals (cats), it's a bit of an unknown territory, but he might just surprise you with his friendly demeanor. A few more things to note: Coal is a big boy who needs an equally big-hearted family. He's a bundle of energy and will thrive with a family that has the time and love to invest in his continued training and development.  He's ready to be your sidekick in all your outdoor escapades. And, speaking of energy, Coal loves to express himself and get your attention is so get ready for some lively conversations! If you're up for the challenge and the adventure of a lifetime, Coal is ready to join your family. Hurry up and adopt him before someone else does because he's a diamond in the rough, and with your guidance, he'll shine brighter than ever before. Come meet Coal today, and together, let's write the next chapter of his incredible journey. Prepare to be charmed by his enthusiasm and zest for life!

Story
Up for adoption in Texas: Mocha. Mocha has lots of personality! Just look at how she poses for pictures, she shines and makes funny faces. She is about 7 years old and weighs 47 pounds. Mocha wants nothing more than to find her forever family. Mocha is a beautiful, fluffy, black and white girl, with gorgeous, hazel eyes. She listens well and redirects easily. Mocha would do best in a quiet home without a lot of people coming and going or young children running about. We think she may have some herding dog breed in her and she doesn't like people or kids zipping around her or her yard. Adults and/or adults and older teens would be ideal for Mocha's forever home. She needs a fenced-in backyard. She does best with slow introductions to new people. She likes other dogs but can be a little bossy, so we'd recommend a home where she can be the only dog, or perhaps a home with another chill or submissive dog. (We would require a meet and greet if an adopter has an existing dog.) Mocha is not fond of cats. To set Mocha and her new family up for success she will need continued positive reinforcement training and we can help you find the right trainer and set you both up for success! Mocha is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, housebroken, and crate trained. Apply now at www.luckylabrescue.com!

Story
Up for adoption in Texas: Mabel and her teddy bear. Mabel loves carrying around her teddy bear -- hoping one day she and her stuffed animal will find a loving family. Beautiful Mabel is about three-years-old and weighs 60 pounds. When she's not carrying around her toy, she can be found smiling for pictures. Look at that big grin. It's like she's posing. Mabel is clearly a ham. If you adopt her, at least someone in your family will happily pose for pictures. Mabel has a big personality and lots of energy. She does OK with other dogs but prefers not to be in a place she feels stuck behind a gate or crate when another dog is present. We'd recommend a meet and greet if you have another dog. We aren't exactly sure how she would do with a cat in her home. She's walked by some and has not really reacted. Mable would thrive doing more positive reinforcement training with an experienced owner. We recommend a home with adults or adults and older teenage kids. She is housebroken, vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed. Please help Mabel get a home! Apply at www.luckylabrescue.com

Story
Shadow says: "Pick me! Pick me! My name is Shadow, and I'm up for adoption in Texas and I keep getting overlooked! I've been waiting for my forever home for more than a year. I'm getting sad." Shadow is about two years old, and he weighs about 50 pounds. He seems OK with cats!! Like a typical young dog, Shadow has lots of energy and loves to play. But he does very well in his crate and can be calm. He'd be a great hiking buddy or possibly running pal. He gets along with most dogs; for some reason, he isn't a fan of one dog he knows. We're not sure why. So if an adopter has another dog, we'd recommend a meet and greet first. Shadow has been non-reactive to cats, though. In fact, we had him cat tested, and we were told, "The cats checked him out from afar, then jumped right down and started rubbing on him. He wasn't so sure about it, but he stayed calm and gave no red flags." Shadow was originally adopted from Lucky Lab when he was a puppy during the pandemic. Several months later, he was returned to the rescue because his owners were busy with their kids and had no time to train him--he was a bit of a wild child. We'd like anyone who adopts Shadow to be an experienced dog owner and continue the positive reinforcement training he's received since he was returned. We think Shadow is very smart and would love the stimulation and attention he receives during training. He'd do best in a home with a fenced-in yard and adults and or adults and kids over 15. Shadow also needs exercise and playtime. Shadow has a lot of love to give, and we'd love for him to find a wonderful forever home. He is very loyal. He's housebroken, vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. Apply at www.luckylabrescue.com

Up for adoption in Texas and New England: Kashew. Meet Kash, the cutest puppy ever! Cash is about nine months old and weighs over 53 pounds so far, he's still filling out and growing. His hobbies include sniffing the air, hunting bugs, and watching airplanes go by. He loves playing fetch and gets better and better at bringing the ball back every day. He loves being outside and chewing on his chew toys. High-fives are his signature move. Cash is a medium-energy puppy who is down to play or relax, whichever the situation calls for. He’s learning how to walk on a leash and really loves being out and about walking, and it’s easy for him to learn. Kash can learn any trick, especially if there are treats involved. He has been living with a 12-year-old and 9-year-old human foster brothers and has been spotted enjoying their trampoline. He regularly goes to the bathroom outside, but he has to be let out frequently since he’s still working on giving the signal to go potty. He’s a great sleeper and sleeps all night long in his crate with the door open. When his foster family is out, he stays in his crate with a chew toy. Kash cannot wait to give his new family a high-five! Kash is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and crate-trained.

Up for adoption in Texas and New England: Jet. Jet is approximately three years old and weighs 98 pounds. He's a little on the hefty side and recently changed to diet dog food--summer is just around the corner! :) Jet's foster mom says he has a heart of gold. In his foster home, he's been welcoming to people who come over, and he gets along with the other dogs (large and small), and cats. Jet loves to greet you when you come home with his goofy grin and lots of love. He has a little white splash on his chest which is noticeable when he looks up at you with his big eyes. Jet loves to be pet and sleep next to your bed on a bed of his own. He will tell you when he wants to go outside. He's so good that he will even wake you up if it's urgent. He hasn’t mastered fetch yet, but he’s teachable and trying to learn by copying his foster brother. He will bark to alert you people are arriving at the house or at strange noises in the yard but otherwise does not make a lot of noise. Jet loves to go on walks with you and help you with yard work. He walks on a leash well and eagerly jumps in the SUV for rides. He looks out the window on the rides, but you will have Jet nose marks on your windows. Jet also works with his foster Mom when she is working from home and is a gentleman while hanging out in the office, napping, or looking out the window. If you are looking for a large, loveable Labrador Jet may be your new family member. He definitely deserves the best! Jet is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and crate-trained.
