Please note: because we must visit the homes of any potential adopters, we can only work with families within our area. If you are not in the greater Chicagoland area (including northwestern Indiana and southeastern Wisconsin) we cannot accommodate you. Please look for a local rescue group or shelter to meet your needs. Thank you for understanding!

Please understand that we may not have a volunteer in your area.
Incomplete forms will not be processed!

PLEASE NOTE: You must send in your adoption application and pass the home visit before we can discuss any questions you have about specific dogs.
We will not return phone messages nor answer e-mails about specific available labs on the web site,
