Peanut – Black Female Lab Mix, 12 Weeks Old, 20 lbs.
Meet Peanut – A Little Labby Girl with a Whole Lot of Love!
Peanut is a beautiful black Lab mix who is smart, sweet, playful, and full of that classic Lab personality! At 12 weeks old, she is already showing what a wonderful companion she will be.
Peanut loves everyone, young and old, and gets along wonderfully with dogs, cats, and even goats of all sizes. She plays with the cats in her foster home and even snuggles with them. She adores her foster family's dogs and would do well in a home with other friendly pets or an active family with children.
This girl is one smart cookie! She sits for her meals and treats, listens well, and is eager to please. She is very food motivated, which should make training a breeze. Peanut is crate trained, goes into her crate willingly, and sleeps through the night.
She is working on potty training and does very well when taken outside frequently. She is learning to respond to her foster family's “potty, potty, potty” cue and heads right to her potty spot. She is also learning leash skills and doing well on walks. Her recall is impressive for such a young puppy, and she stays close to her foster family on their property.
Fetch, squeaky toys, big stuffed animals, and water are some of Peanut's favorite things. She is an active, curious pup who doesn't want to miss a thing! When playtime is over, though, she loves nothing more than snuggling on the couch with her people for a relaxing movie night.
Peanut is growing into a wonderful young girl with all the makings of a fantastic companion. She will need continued training, socialization, and patience as she grows, but her intelligence and eagerness to please make her a delightful puppy to raise.
Could Peanut be the missing piece of your family? If you are ready for puppy kisses, outdoor adventures, playful antics, and plenty of snuggles, this sweet girl is waiting to meet you! Apply at www.labrescuefresno.org

Missy – Tan Doodle x, 11 months, 58 lbs.
Looking for a playful, cuddly companion to complete your family? Meet Missy! At just 11 months old and 58 pounds, this girl has plenty of personality and an even bigger heart!
Missy was found as a stray, severely matted and in need of help. Thankfully, she was rescued from the shelter, and now she's ready for her next chapter: finding a family to call her own.
Missy enjoys being close to her people, playing with her toys, and chasing a ball in a good game of fetch. She's still a puppy at heart, with plenty of energy and enthusiasm to share! She's also food-motivated, making continued training a fun and rewarding experience.
Here's what makes Missy a great companion:
Loving and affectionate
Loves toys and playing fetch
Does well with cats
Gets along with both large and small dogs
Very good with children
Crate-trained and house-trained
Knows how to use a doggy door
Food-motivated and eager to learn
At 11 months old, Missy is still learning her manners. She can get excited and jump up to show her enthusiasm, but she's working on keeping all four paws on the floor. She also has a soft mouth. With positive reinforcement, consistency, and continued guidance, she'll keep developing into a wonderful lifelong companion.
What kind of home would make Missy happiest?
Missy would thrive with an active family who includes her in daily adventures, makes time for play, and saves a spot on the couch for snuggles! She would likely enjoy having another friendly dog to keep her company and play with. If she's an only dog, she'd do best with a family who spends plenty of time with her. She wants to be part of family life, not left home alone for long periods.
Missy needs a committed family willing to guide her as she grows, help her learn, and make her a cherished part of the household.
After the rough start she's had, Missy deserves a lifetime of toys to play with, adventures to enjoy, cozy places to nap, and a family she can finally call her own.
Could Missy be the missing piece in your family?
ADOPT MISSY AND LET THE CUDDLES, LAUGHTER, AND UNCONDITIONAL LOVE BEGIN!

Meet Rango! Your Next Adventure Buddy!

Hi, I’m Rango, a playful, mischievous little pup with a big personality and a whole lot of love for life! I’m incredibly smart (I even taught myself how to play fetch!) and always ready for a backyard adventure or a good game with my favorite person.

I love making my own fun, whether that means zooming around outside, chasing a ball, or exploring the world around me. And when all that puppy energy runs out? You’ll find me curled up nearby, catching some much-needed Zzz’s.

Gabby – Black Female Purebred Labrador, 6 Years, 67 lbs
Meet Gabby!
If you’re looking for an all-Lab Lab, look no further! Gabby is everything we love about the breed wrapped up in one beautiful, gentle girl. She has the sweetest disposition and simply wants to be with her people.
Gabby is a total foodie and firmly believes that no meal should ever be missed! She loves people of all ages and is wonderfully social with dogs, cats, and even goats. She is gentle, affectionate, and eager to please. Her favorite place is right beside you, soaking up belly rubs, cuddles, and plenty of reassurance that she is, indeed, a very good girl.
And Gabby has some serious Lab fun in her, too! She loves squeaky toys, playtime, fetch, walks, and—oh my goodness—SWIMMING! This girl absolutely loves the water. She has a wonderful recall and is terrific on leash, but she is also a pleasure off leash and will happily walk right alongside you in a natural heel.
Gabby is equally happy enjoying the simple things in life. Most of the time, she is a calm, quiet girl who is perfectly content to relax near her people. But when the other dogs are ready to play, Gabby is more than happy to join in! She also loves going for a stroll or hopping in the car for an adventure. She is excellent in the car and gets in and out like a pro.
Gabby is very much a people dog. She wants to be close to her humans and doesn’t like being separated from them. If you leave her sight, she may bark to let you know that she has noticed your absence and would very much prefer that you come back! ❤️ Because of this, Gabby will need a home where someone is home most of the time. She is looking for people who want a devoted companion who will happily spend her days simply being by their side.
❤️ A note about Gabby's medical care
Gabby has been diagnosed with MG (myasthenia gravis), but we are very happy with how she is doing. She currently presents with no signs of MG and is doing wonderfully on her medication. She receives medication three times a day, and we have begun a carefully monitored diminishing dose. Her most recent bloodwork and titers were all normal.
Her medical needs are something her future family will need to continue managing, but Gabby herself doesn't seem to have gotten the memo that she's supposed to be anything other than a happy, loving Labrador! She is enjoying life, loves her people, loves her dog friends, and is ready for a family who will give her the same devotion she gives them.
Gabby is the kind of Lab who makes you smile just by being in the room. She doesn't need a complicated life—she wants her people, a comfy place to relax, some good food, a belly rub, a walk, a game of fetch, and maybe a swim whenever possible.
If you have room in your heart and home for a sweet, gentle, devoted, fun-loving six-year-old Lab, Gabby would love to meet you. Apply for Gabby at www.labrescuefresno.org

She gets along well with dogs of all sizes, does great with cats, walks well on a leash, and even enjoys car rides.

Clifford – Yellow Male, 3 years old, 95 pounds
Clifford is a BIG yellow boy with an even bigger heart.
This handsome guy first stumbled onto someone’s property in Visalia as a stray. No one came looking for him, (surprise, surprise) and he eventually made his way to LRRF. It quickly became apparent that something was very wrong with his right eye—it was bulging, and we knew he needed immediate medical attention.
A specialist confirmed that Clifford’s eye needed to be removed, and he underwent surgery. Thankfully, he seems to be seeing better and is clearly feeling much more comfortable now that the painful eye is gone.
Unfortunately, Clifford has a hereditary eye disease that means there is a possibility he could eventually lose vision in his remaining eye. We know that may sound scary, but Clifford doesn't know he's supposed to feel sorry for himself. He is simply happy to be loved, included and part of a family.
And what a sweetheart he is. ❤️
Clifford is playful, affectionate and loving. He gets along wonderfully with people and other dogs, and even ignored the cats in the home of the Good Samaritan who found him. He's great with children, too. He's a little clumsy at times, but honestly, that's just part of his charm.
He enjoys going for walks and would benefit from having a confident, friendly helper dog in his forever home as he continues to adjust to his vision changes. He is crate trained and house trained.
What Clifford needs most is someone who will see Clifford—not his eye.
Someone who will look past the medical issue and recognize the wonderful dog standing right in front of them. A dog who wants to love you, your family, your dogs, your cats and simply be part of your life.
We truly believe Clifford will make an exceptional companion for the right family.
He doesn't need someone to feel sorry for him.
He needs someone willing to love him. And Clifford has plenty of love to give right back.
Could you be the person who sees Clifford for the amazing boy he is? Apply for Clifford www.labrescuefresno.org

Meet our little rescue dog. After talking to the Cat House neighbors it appears he was dumped. Staff immediately scooped him up and whisked him away to the vets. Once at the vets, we learned someone used him as target practice. We couldn't believe someone would do this to this gentle kind dog. Regardless of the abuse he's encountered, he's a really sweet dog. He's about 20-25 pounds and fairly young. Little Black Dog hangs out all day with about 30 cats, a small resident dog, and also visits with the senior dog Buster. He's learning how to walk on a harness leash and happy to report he's making great progress.
