Hi there! We are Sam (in the plant and with a black collar) and Jasper (with the toy and sporting a green collar). We were named after characters in the Twilight Saga. Sam is slightly larger and has the upper hand with his werewolf abilities when they wrestle, but Jasper holds his own using his sharp little vampire teeth!

We are so young that we haven't really been trained yet. We go outside about every two hours to do our business -- even at night, but we get back to sleep pretty quickly. For some reason, our foster mom is trying to get us on a schedule.

We really enjoy laying on the cool rocks in the flower beds and both of us enjoy the baby pool, but not for too long. We've even been in a big pool already -- Sam only took a couple of minutes for instinct to kick in but Jasper just wanted to get out...isn't there something about vampires not getting wet? Or is that witches? Regardless, our foster mom thinks that Sam might be a good dock dog. Jasper is definitely more of a cuddler.

We really like to wrestle, play tug a war and chew on bones. We tried to walk on leash, but it turned into tug a war, and we beat our foster mom the first time. Recently, we made it four houses and then made her carry us back. We are quite the dynamic duo! And remember, we do have short little puppy legs with two speeds: on and off.

We will get batter as we get bigger and more training. If you have the love and time to devote to either of us, we'd love to meet you. Please fill out an adoption application today.

Tootsie's my name and loving life is my game!  I'm a 2 yr old chocolate female surrendered to a shelter because my family was having a baby and didn't have time for me.  I'm a very sweet and lovable little girl who is just looking for the right family to give me love, attention and a routine to settle down.  I must not have been well cared for as I need to gain weight and work on some manners.  I'm very fidgety and require lots of exercise but once I'm tired, I can settle down.  I love to play fetch, play with other dogs and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the water!!  Bring out a hose and watch me jump like a jumping bean!  I'll run and take a flying leap into a doggie pool also.  I'm working on manners with a trainer now and doing very well.  I'm housebroken, will go into a crate (I'm working on adjusting to that), am great with kids and have just a happy go lucky personality that I'm sure you won't be able to resist!  Please fill out an application for me today!

This was when I was sick. But look at me now!

Hi there! My name is Allie and I'm about 5 months old.  I'm so happy to be able to have my picture on this web site because I almost crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Yep, I've been knockin' on death's door for several days now but then I came here.

You see, the kind people at Great Lakes Lab Rescue took me and my friend Tripp in all the way from Georgia where I received no medical care.  I arrived very sick with pneumonia and spent the several days at the emergency hospital.  I was so sick I wouldn't eat or move, both of which are extremely rare for a Lab puppy!  Anyway, I've been making a little progress every day and it looks like I'll be able to put off that trip to the Rainbow Bridge for another 12 years or so.  This makes my new friends at Great Lakes extremely happy.  They say I'm very sweet and love belly rubs - so much that'll I'll flop on my back the minute I meet you so you can oblige!  As you can imagine I racked up quite a bill at the emergency hospital so, if you'll help my GLLR friends pay off my debt, I promise to let you have all the belly rubs you want from me (click here to donate now, please!). 

I'm fully mended and ready for adoption very soon! I'm a little bit skittish in new environments but my foster family is exposing me to many new things -- like the downtown area of our suburb and new people and places. I do great with my four legged foster siblings as well as my siblings of the human variety. I'm housebroken, crate trained and I'm working on basic commands. I could use some formal obedience training, but then what lab puppy couldn't? I'll be a great dog so please fill out an application for me today!

Hi!  My name is Tripp.  And what a trip it has been!  My foster home named me that because of my long journey here.  Just like Allie, I came up from a shelter in Georgia deathly ill.  I was also rushed to the closest emergency hospital where I received the best care to treat my pneumonia.  The volunteers at GLLR must have said lots of prayers for us because by a great miracle, we both went from our death beds to fighting this with all our might!  For a 4 year old boy, I only weigh in at 44 pounds.  I need lots of good food and continued care so that I can be just like a typical Lab.  Each day I am getting stronger and stronger and finding enough energy to want to play.  My foster home was so excited to find me with a sock in my mouth.  She said that was a sure sign that I am feeling better!  I'll be ready for adoption in a few weeks after the vet gives me the thumbs up.  If you would like to help out with our medical costs, please click here to donate via Paypal.  If a Tripp is in your future then fill out an application for me to make your reservation.

Meet Chloe, a sweet and gentle young Lab with eyes that tell a sad story. Chloe was found as a stray and wandered onto a farm where a kind woman took her in and tried to find the owners. When that failed, she turned Chloe in at the local shelter. It was soon discovered that Chloe was both pregnant and heartworm positive.

She gave birth in a tornado, hence the names of her pups: Rain, Storm, Boomer, Lightning and Thunder.

The pups have been weaned and placed in foster homes and are ready for adoption. Chloe will not be ready until she has completed her lengthly, costly and painful heartworm treatment. However, if you are interested in her or any of the puppies, please fill out an application to get the process started.

Cadbury here!  Sorry to disappoint all chocolate lovers out there but I do not have connections with the Easter bunny and I do not come with Cadbury Easter Eggs.  Chocolate and dogs don't mix - silly! What I can offer you is love and LOTS of it!  My foster home says I am the most gentle, loving and sweetest boy ever!  I am guessed to be between 1-2 years old found as a stray when the kind volunteers from Great Lakes took me in.  I am doing well in my foster home where I play nicely with my foster brother, love going for walks and to dog parks, and LOVE to snuggle up on the couch with my foster parents.  I don't mind being crated when home alone and am completely housebroken.  When I first arrived to my foster home, my foster parents thought I may have been abused because fast movements scared me. I'm totally over that now! I'm very confident and inquisitive.  I'm VERY nimble and can jump from a standing position if I really want to get somewhere before my foster brother!  I do have lots of energy and will need a family that is very active and will take me to obedience training.  I enjoy spending time outdoors chasing birds.  When inside, I love to look for birds and squirels from a window.

I am very handsome, have a beautiful shiny coat and what sets me apart from other Labs, a cropped tail.  I can't tell the people at GLLR who my parents were but they think I may be mixed with Vizsla or German Shorthair Pointer.  Labs rule of course! But in my opinion, those are great breeds also! I'm the old world favorite, here today but gone tomorrow - fill out an application for me today!  I won't be here long!
