Labrador Rescue Inc. does not accept any responsibility for Labradors advertised on this section of the website. We have not tested these advertised Labradors in foster care and therefore cannot vouch for their personality or behaviour. In most cases we have not even met these Labradors nor their owners and have simply agreed to allow their surrendering owners to advertise them in a forum that is frequented by Labrador lovers. We take no responsibility for the nature of this dog, the condition they are in and the people who own them.
All paperwork negotiations regarding the dogs advertised in this section of the website are to be between the surrendering owners and the adoptee direct. All paperwork including microchip transfer and ownership papers are to be handled direct between surrendering owner and adoptee.
By proceeding to follow through on an enquiry listed on this page you are agreeing to the conditions listed in this disclaimer.
If you wish to adopt a Labrador that has been tested by Labrador Rescue Inc then please visit the dogs available for adoption that deals with dogs that are in our care.
When considering a dog below, ask the owners why they are being rehomed. Often it is because their current owner is moving overseas or doesn't have the time for the dog anymore. Please confirm this before seeing the dog. Labrador Rescue does not have the space to take these dogs into foster care and the owners are trying to take the responsible option of keeping them until they find a home rather than dumping them in pounds.
Buddy is your quintessential beautiful loving and loyal yellow Labrador. He is 3.5 years old and has grown up with another dog. Unfortunately our other dog has taken to attacking Buddy on a regular basis and Buddy comes out of it worse for wear. This is a reluctant surrender but it’s for Buddy’s well-being.
Buddy recently suffered a cranial cruciate ligament injury in his back right leg and underwent surgery in late December 2011. He has recovered well and is pretty much back to normal now. This injury means that he has modified/restricted exercise requirements such as a basic walk around the block once or twice a day, and a short session of fetch. At the park, even off the leash, he sticks by you only moving away to fetch the toy. He responds well to the sit command, especially when there’s food/treats about.
We have a 2.5 year old child who plays in the backyard around Buddy on a daily basis, so he is fine in that respect, although never unsupervised. He sometimes does not realise his own bulk and if he walks past a child could knock them over, although not meaning to. When he is wagging his tail excitedly I would advise to keep a child out of the way as his tail packs a punch if it connects with you. He can get very excited when he meets new people and when he sees us in the morning/afternoon, but he is not a jumper.
We want him to go to a loving family where there are no other dogs. He is not scared of other dogs but we think his play tends to get a bit too boisterous and another dog who is not used to it may just attack him like ours has been. Buddy is a very robust, resilient and absolutely lovely dog but I think being a one-dog home brings out the best in him.

Jasper
Eleven month old Jasper was surrendered to a local pound because he was too excitable around the children. As Jasper is a young dog his behaviour is understandable given that he was kept in the backyard and didn’t see much of his family.
Although Jasper was listed at the pound as a Golden Retriever he is very much a Labrador Retriever and has grown into a handsome young lad in the weeks he has been with his foster family.
Jasper arrived covered in fleas and was very thin. A hydrobath, flea treatment and some good food at his foster home has seen a change in Jasper. He is learning to walk nicely on lead and being taught all the things he should have learnt when he was taken to his first home. His foster carer describes Jasper as a work in progress but he is now housetrained, is sleeping inside at night and learning how to be a much loved member of a family. Jasper is attending dog school each Saturday afternoon and has learned the commands sit, stand and come. He is now going to off lead dog parks and socialising with the other dogs.
Jasper’s foster family has done a great job with this boy. He is still the usual mischievous pup who loves to chase cats and jump in and out of the vegetable garden but he is growing into a handsome young man with lovely manners. It has also been found that Jasper loves children and is very good around them and careful not to knock them over
This young boy is looking for a home where his family is around much of the time and has the time to spend with him and take him to dog training so that he can turn into the wonderful companion he was always meant to be. Jasper would also appreciate another dog for company as this boy loves to play.
Jasper comes microchipped, desexed, vaccinated, heartworm tested and treated for heartworm, intestinal worms and fleas.
If your family would like to open your heart and home to this handsome young boy please go to the Contact page on Golden Retriever Rescue's website and select the questionnaire. We look forward to hearing from you.
Isabella
Isabella is a lovely dog and whoever is lucky enough to have her will realise she is just a sweetheart. Loves to be spoiled and loves children, loves running but on sunny days loves to lay on the grass and sleep (who wouldnt) Even though she is 8 she is still very much a puppy, very young at heart.
Are you interested in adopting Isabella? Isabella is available for adoption in Fraser, ACT. Please register your interest directly with the owner by contacting Nataly on 0416627540.
Neo
Neo is a loving and affectionate 18 month old Labrador and is happiest curled up at your feet or being given cuddles. He is fit and lean and enjoys an active lifestyle. In between visits to the dog park, swimming at the beach and going for runs, Neo enjoys being groomed, snoozing in the sun and chewing a nice bone.
Neo is a beautiful dog with a loving and warm nature. He has lots of energy and would suit an active family. Neo is familiar with babies and children. He loves to play - but due to energy levels, older children would be best!
Neo is a very trainable dog and knows how to sit, lay down, not eat until told, can be tied up outside the shops and walks well on a halty lead...but like all young labradors, he still has room to learn.
He is a intelligent dog who learns fast. He has been trained by world renowned dog trainers Dog Tech. His current family have to give him up with much regret and wish to offer the lucky family who welcomes Neo into their home, a session with his trainer, John Vella to ensure Neo's happy intergration into his new family. (This is at no cost to you).
Are you interested in adopting Neo? Neo is available for adoption in Sydney. Please register your interest directly with the owner by contacting Michelle Brooks on 0450629550.
Britney
Britney is a 14 month old Labrador x and she is desexed. She is socialised and good with other dogs but not particularly fond of cats. She is great with kids, friendly and still a bit of a boisterous pup but has a beautiful temperament. Would be perfect for someone who has a farm and/or could give her lots of exercise. She is in perfect health and just a lovely dog!
Are you interested in adopting Britney? Britney is available for adoption in Doncaster Eastt. Please register your interest directly with the owner by contacting Amanda Vasiliou on 0419260405.
