Adopting a Labrador Retriever

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Labrador Retriever - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

The easiest way to adopt a Labrador Retriever would be through a rescue that specializes in Labrador Retrievers. A great place to start would be by starting a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Labrador Retrievers in your area.

The cost to adopt a Labrador Retriever is around $350 to cover the expenses of caring for the dog before adoption. In contrast, buying Labrador Retrievers from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Some breeds cost as much as $20,000, but depending on their breeding, they usually cost anywhere from $1,000-$2,000.

Labrador Retriever fun facts

Fun Facts:

Labrador Retrievers are multi-talented! They are one of the most favored breeds to guide the blind, to provide therapy, to detect mines in the Army, and to sniff out drugs for police forces, due to their gentle nature, and their search-and-rescue aptitude.

Did you know Labs can detect cancer with their nose? That’s right! Scientists believe they can detect volatile changes in organic compounds, making them the go-to cancer detection dog, and currently the only way to detect early stages of ovarian cancer.

A Labrador Retriever was named the Honorary Mayor of Sunol, California in 1981. Bosco beat out two human candidates and ran as a "Re-pup-lican." His platform slogan was "A bone in every dish, a cat in every tree, and a fire hydrant on every corner."
