Step 1: Do your research and stop to think! I am committing to this for hopefully 15+ years!

The American Kennel Club says this about our breed:

“The sweet-faced, lovable Labrador Retriever is America’s most popular dog breed. Labs are friendly, outgoing, and high-spirited companions who have more than enough affection to go around for a family looking for a medium-to-large dog.”

BUT THEY ARE NOT FOR EVERYONE! DO YOUR HOMEWORK PLEASE!

Step 2: Understand our Process and Requirements

Our dogs and puppies typically adopt almost immediately after they are cleared medically. Therefore, you will not find available dogs here. Watch our Facebook page and Petfinder.

Stop and consider these requirements please:

1)All other pets in the home must be spayed or neutered. *The only exceptions would be due to a medical reason or if the pet is involved in "showing" (proof required).

2) Dogs in the home must be up-to-date on rabies and distemper vaccines, yearly heartworm tests, and year-round monthly heartworm preventative.

3) Indoor cats must be up-to-date on rabies vaccines.

4) If you rent, please acquire a written confirmation from your landlord for verification of animal acceptance.

Step 3: Inquiry - Applications will be sent to potential adopters once you are matched with a potential available dog.

If you have completed steps 1 & 2 and are interested in adopting, please watch our Facebook and Petfinder for “Available for Adoption” dogs.

When you see one posted that meets your requirements then email adopt@3clr.org with your interest.
