For the Love of Labs Rescue

Dog rescue in Enfield, CT

For the Love of Labs is in existence because late one night a group of people saw a picture of a Labrador Retriever online that was going to be euthanized in a high kill animal shelter the next morning. For most of the night there were messages sent, phone calls coordinated, donations made, people volunteering to do anything, and fast friends made - all for the sake of a little yellow female lab who looked terrified to be stuck in a dark, scary animal shelter. Remember: We do not just save Labs. We try to help most breeds that are in danger of euthanasia.

The next day, the efforts paid off. The yellow girl was rescued before she could be put to sleep that morning. It was the beginning of a new day for Iko and it was also a beginning for that group of people. They realized that they had something special going on and they formed a rescue group to help even more Labradors in the same predicament.

Since then the people of For the Love of Labs have worked together to rescue, transport, and place labs in safe, loving foster and permanent homes. These Labradors are also returned to health by responsible vetting, heartworm prevention and spaying or neutering.

Now each dog has a new chance at life - all For the Love of Labs.
