My personality

My story

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

Up for adoption in Texas: Franklin is a beautiful, sweet lab mix with a good amount of energy weighing approximately 65 pounds. He is around 3-4 years old and loves taking long walks multiple times a day and playing outside. He gets a case of the zoomies almost every night before bedtime and loves playing with his Kong toy or chasing a ball around in the backyard.

We are still working on leash control with walks as he likes to pull, especially when he sees a squirrel to chase, but he’s made great strides since coming to his foster home. He is strong and does best on walks with a harness. He loves all the people he meets out on walks, too. He’s been a friendly guy!!

Franklin is not a big fan of being crated but is good with free roam of the house. He loves to be around his people at all times. He sleeps in his dog bed next to his foster mom but loves morning cuddles on her bed. He is a smart boy, is good with "sit" and taking treats, and likes to give lots of kisses!

Franklin would love a forever home that will allow him plenty of time to exercise throughout the day or play ball, give lots of belly rubs, and be with him for the majority of the day. It’s not necessary, but he would likely do well with someone active, maybe a runner or hiker.

Franklin is vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, and house-trained. If you think Franklin may be a good fit please apply for him at luckylabrescue.com

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Potential adopters must fill out an application and a Lucky Lab representative will follow up with both a phone and home interview. Our adoption fee includes all vaccinations, microchip, spay or neuter and a heart worm test and treatment for heart worm if needed.

Go meet their pets

We are a foster based rescue. If you become an approved adopter we will make arrangements to meet the dog you are interested in.

The great news is our dogs come house trained, they learn to live in a home and household and they are all "vetted" vaccinated, neutered and microchipped.

Thank you !

More about this rescue

Lucky Lab Rescue and Adoption is an all-volunteer, non-profit 501(c)(3) approved rescue organization whose mission is to reduce the euthanasia rates and inhumane treatment of Labrador Retrievers and lab mixes and find them loving forever homes.

Most labs that come into Lucky Lab Rescue are from municipal and county shelters in Texas. Most are at risk of euthanasia, usually due to overcrowded conditions, great dogs, who ended up in a bad spot.

Labs are one of the most popular breeds of dogs due to their loyal and family oriented personalities. Labs are also one of the most overbred breeds and are the number one breed to be found in shelters. They also have one of the highest euthanasia rates. Some find it difficult that rescues can be breed specific, however, Lucky Lab Rescue and other lab rescues make a huge impact on euthanasia rates just by rescuing labs and lab mixes alone.
