Review for Lab Rescue Ok Inc, Broken Arrow, OK, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Have volunteered and adopted three dogs from Lab Rescue OK, Inc. Have had three incredible dogs from Lab Rescue OK, Inc. All were 100% house trained and in tip top shape. One was treated for heart worms by Lab Rescue OK. He will turn 18 years of age in June. I've had him since 1999. I am so grateful he was rescued by Lab Rescue OK, Inc.

Lab Rescue Ok is an all volunteer organization. Adopters go through a rigorous adoption process that tries to insure a Lab is going to a forever home. It upsets some people because they feel like they are being investigated. The rescue tries to do what is best for the dog. They have to go in a secure yard, be a part of the family and inside, make sure the adopter has a history of good Veterinary care and has been responsible. Not always easy! They error on the side of the dog and are their voice.

It is a rescue that does everything right. All of the fund raising goes to the Labs. They are always overwhelmed with the number of dogs and medical care they need. It is a very very good rescue with truly fantastic people making it successful. It was the only Lab Rescue for Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, and Missouri for a number of years. Some incredible people have been lab Rescue OK, Inc volunteers. They have rescued thousands of wonderful dogs.

They don't come any better than Lab Rescue OK, Inc. I volunteer time with Lab Rescue, OK as a foster home.
I am also a client who has wonderful dogs from Lab Rescue OK, Inc. FYI, I have a Golden Retriever, Black Lab, and a Chesapeake Bay Retriever from Lab Rescue OK. Each dog was my good fortune to adopt.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Have more extensive fund raising and grant writing. Work for more foster homes

Review for Heartland Lab Rescue Inc, Edmond, OK, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I was the founder of another Labrador Retriever Rescue, Lab Rescue OK, Inc. Over the years we have worked with rehoming Labs & educating the public in OK. We have had great experiences working with Heartland Lab Rescue on Labrador Retrievers in need in the OKC area and western side of the state. They have obtained Veterinary care for many Labs from Shelters. They get them healthy. They have treated many for heart worms and Ehrlichiosis. The dogs are fostered in loving homes. All of the dogs are neutered and healthy when adopted. When adopted the adopter goes through a background check and home visit.

Cannot say enough good things about Heartland Lab Rescue INC. They are overwhelmed with dogs and always do it right. They put the best interest of the dog first. Medical bills and Veterinary care are always taken care of by Heartland Lab Rescue. First class organization with first class volunteers who all work for free. All experiences have been great where Heartland Lab Rescue has become involved with rescuing a dog. They have a tough job and do it right!
