Dog friendly families can join the CLR volunteer network by identifying one of several available dogs that need a foster home. When rescued labs arrive at CLR, they are assessed by a specialist for temperament, and then see a veterinarian team to address any health issues, are spayed or neutered, micro-chipped, and brought up-to-date on all vaccines. The dogs stay in a temporary kennel before joining a foster family or getting adopted. Foster families play such an essential role in the health and well-being of the labs; that we hope you give it serious consideration!
CLR dogs placed in foster homes immediately feel the benefit of being in a loving and stable environment. Many dogs (though not all) have had a difficult history. When placed in a home offering safety, love, good nutrition, and exercise, the dog can significantly rebound. Being in a foster home where the dog can manage their energy, learn to trust again, work on their manners, have fun, and become better socialized helps make the transition to a forever family more successful.
Additionally, learning about the dog helps the CLR team assess what we can do to help the dog adjust, as well as assist us in finding the best match for the dog and potential adopters.
