My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Roofus is a one-year-old, 58-pound, unique-looking mix found chained out with three other dogs by a group called "Off the Chain." Roofus, whose real name is Doofus, belonged to the homeowner's daughter, who dumped him at the parent's house. The group offered a chain link enclosure to get them off the chains, but they no longer wanted to keep Roofus and threatened to turn him loose unless the group found another home for him. They watched for the next few days to ensure she was still there and realized they weren't giving him food and water. We took him, got him vetted, and he is now in our boarding. He is friendly with other dogs and also very social with people. Ironically, he seems to be housetrained, too.

More about this rescue

Atlanta Lab Rescue is an all volunteer, non-profit (501-c3) organization, whose volunteers have years of rescue experience. Our mission is to identify and rescue Labrador Retrievers and large breed mixes from overwhelmed shelters and abusive situations and place them in secure, loving homes. We average 30-40 dogs in the program at any given time and in our first 10 years, we have rescued over 3500 dogs.

Prior to an Atlanta Lab Rescue dog being adopted, each dog undergoes an extensive examination by our veterinarians, including a comprehensive blood profile, is updated on all vaccinations, spayed or neutered and micro chipped. Health issues that require additional treatment such as heartworms, surgery, etc, are addressed prior to adoption. In addition, each adoption includes free access to our Atlanta Lab Rescue trainer. At Atlanta Lab Rescue we firmly believe that a healthy, well trained dog is the key to the successful integration of a rescued dog and ensures a wonderful, loving companion for years to come.
