Desert Labrador Retriever Rescue

About

At Desert Labrador Retriever Rescue (DLRR), we believe every Labrador Retriever deserves a second chance at living their best life. We are a passionate, all-volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming Labrador Retrievers. 

Since 1999, we have rescued over 6,000 displaced Labrador Retrievers, giving them the care, attention, and loving homes they deserve. Each dog in our care receives the necessary medical treatment, rehabilitation, and behavioral support to ensure they are ready for their forever home. 

Our Labs come from the county shelters and from owners who can no longer care for them due to illness, death, or loss of their job or home. We also rescue strays and those abandoned and friendly Labs with treatable illnesses who would otherwise face euthanasia due to overcrowded animal shelters. Every Lab that comes through DLRR has a story, and we are committed to being their advocate and voice on their journey to a new beginning. Today, we are not able to save all the Labs in Arizona that need our help. Our vision for the future is to work to increase public awareness and involvement throughout the state. We believe that this will compel more volunteers, fosters, and donors to join our organization, and someday soon, there will be no Labs in Arizona unable to get the rehabilitation and rehoming that they need and deserve. Our goal isn’t to be the largest rescue in the state, but we will always strive to be the best one. Finally, thank you for your continued support and generosity towards our organization; we would not have been able to save so many Labs without you.
