Meet Tammy! She is around 1 year old and is a Maltipoo. She came to us with her brother Timmy and the Pizza puppies when her elderly owner could no longer care for her dogs. Tammy is a precious little lap girl working on socialization, leash training, and housetraining in her current foster home. She is fostered with several dogs and does well with them and sleeps quietly in her crate all night. If you think you are ready to add to your family by adopting Tammy 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.

Story
Meet Jezze! This fuzzball is just as cute as can be! She brings the more to Labs and More as a Maltipoo. She will stay small. Jezze is currently in a foster home where she gets along with other dogs and is working on housetraining and crate trianing. Jezze is looking for a family that understands the time, patience, and energy needed to raise a young pup. We require all puppy adopters to provide training that includes: house training, basic training, leash training, and socialization. Additionally, this cutie is going to need proper exercise, mental stimulation, and your attention and love to grow up to be the best companion. We do not allow our dogs or puppies to sleep or live outside; they must be incorporated into your family and be made a priority in your life. In return, you will have the most loving and loyal family member you could ask for. If you think you are ready to add to your family by adopting Jezze 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.

Story
Jax is 11 years old and 2 months. I unfortunately am allergic to Jax and am sad to have to re-home him, however it is necessary. I have tried to live with this but it is impossible. I am just to sensitive and allergic. He is has a microchip. He is potty trained. He likes Wellness dog can food I have given him grain free dog food. I also cook him extra people food like scramble eggs, and beef and lamb. He is allergic to chicken and poultry. Jax is very sweet and will make a wonderful pet. Also very loyal. Loves to snuggle up to you and is welcoming of people when they come over. He loves to walk. Jax is friendly, mellow, and affectionate, reported to enjoy cuddling and burrow in blankets. I adopted Jax from another family. Who already had another dog. I am looking for a loving home who will give a lot of care and attention. Great for an older person who would like company or a family as well. Great with kids. Please consider adopting for possible an older parent or older child.
