Rescue
News:
Foster Volunteers
Needed! The MVLRC Rescue is in URGENT need
of Foster Care Givers in the Greater Cincinnati area. This area
includes Northern Kentucky and Southeastern Indiana. All Rescue Labs
are current on vaccinations, heartworm clear, and altered. They just
need a temporary home until they are adopted. We, as a rescue, are
limited in saving worthy purebred Labradors who face euthanasia because
of lack of interim homes. Please help us by giving them sanctuary.

Who We
Are
The
Miami
Valley Labrador Retriever Rescue is a small group of volunteers from
the Miami Valley Labrador Retriever Club (an AKC licensed specialty
club in southwestern Ohio)?and other caring community members. We are
dedicated to the Labrador Retriever breed and support the rescue and
referral of Labs in need of new homes in our geographic area.
What
We Do
Through
the
use of e-mail and a telephone mailbox, we coordinate information about
Labradors who can no longer be kept by their owners, have been
surrendered to an animal shelter, or have been rescued as strays, and
we try to match them with an adoptive family. Our area of operation
includes counties in southwestern Ohio, southeastern Indiana, and
northern Kentucky. Our members contribute their time, effort, financial
support, and "heartstrings" to try to help Labradors in need.
How
We Work
If
you have
found a stray that you believe is a Labrador, or if you own a Lab you
can no
longer care for, call
the hotline at 513-588-0124 and leave your name, phone number, and
information about the dog. A volunteer will contact you as soon as the
message is taken off the system. In the event that we
are able to help you, we request a contribution to rescue in return for
our services.
If
you are
interested in adopting a Labrador, you will be asked to complete an adoption
application.
If
you adopt a Labrador that is in our foster care, a donation is
requested to help cover our vet expenses for the dogs in rescue.
The
Labradors that are available through our service have been vet checked,
are up to date on their shots, heartworm clear and have been spayed or
neutered. Some, but not all, of our labs have microchip IDs.
