FRANCINE – White Female Mix, 11 Months, 105 lbs.
Have you been waiting for a SPECIAL dog? Meet the sweetest girl EVER!
Francine is an 11-month-old, 105-pound Pyrenees, Hound and Golden Retriever mix! How do we know? Well, we were really curious (mainly because of the length of her ears), so we did it! And if we do it, we're going to tell you! Besides, we're pretty sure you see what we saw. There's no Labrador in there!
How, what, why, when and where? Here you go!
Francine was surrendered to LRRF, and based on the picture we were sent, we kinda figured! But we're only human, and if you've followed us for any length of time, you know depending on the situation the dog is in, we just can't help ourselves!

Big Mack – Black English Male, Approx. 10 Years Old, 80 lbs.
Big Mack is the epitome of the English Labrador Retriever, and according to his foster, the epitome of perfection!
This big, lovable boy gets along with everyone and everything. He loves his food, loves to snooze, loves his walkies, and most of all, loves being near his people. Honestly, what more could a Lab ask for?
His foster says she wishes she could have known him in his younger days, which tells you just how special this boy is.
Mack is one of the 11 neglected dogs Labrador Retriever Rescue of Fresno took in from a hoarding situation involving approximately 50 dogs. The lack of care was immediately evident, but Mack has come a long way since arriving in rescue. Today, he is neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested, and microchipped. His horribly infected ears have healed. He also had several badly damaged teeth removed, and what a difference that made! Now he can eat and chew like a champ. Did someone say FOOD? Yep, Mack is a Lab through and through!
Mack is house-trained and crate-trained, although a crate isn't necessary. He enjoys the freedom to move about the house, whether it's daytime or bedtime. He does have some arthritis, common in older dogs, and receives pain management to help keep him comfortable.
Those wild puppy days are long behind him, and Mack is perfectly content with the simple pleasures in life. His favorite things, in no particular order, are:

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

Cameo – Yellow English Female, 10ish years, 62 lbs.
Meet Cameo – A Sweet Senior Lady Looking for Her Forever Home
Cameo is one of the 11 dogs Labrador Retriever Rescue of Fresno welcomed from a difficult hoarding situation. She has had her veterinary checkup and received care for an ear infection and dry eyes. She is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated, and she’s ready to begin a new chapter surrounded by love and comfort.
Cameo is about as easy going as they come! On a scale of 1 to 10 for craziness, she’s a 2. Her favorite activities include sleeping, enjoying a good back rub in the grass, and soaking up a little attention. She’s potty trained and has settled nicely into her foster home’s routine, especially when it comes to mealtime!
Her foster mom was pleasantly surprised when Cameo figured out how to use the potty bells to let her know she needed to go outside. What a smart girl!
Cameo also enjoys getting attention from people at the Clovis Farmers Market and calmly ignores the other dogs walking by. She’s a laid-back companion who doesn’t ask for much beyond a comfortable place to rest, some gentle affection, and someone to love.
After everything she has been through, Cameo deserves to spend her golden years knowing what it means to be cherished. If you have a soft spot for a sweet senior lady, Cameo might just be your perfect match.
Apply to adopt Cameo at labrescuefresno.org.
Her foster mom would love to tell you more about this special girl!

Harley – Yellow Male X, 3.5 Years Old, 102 lbs.
HARLEY: 102 POUNDS OF LOVE IN A YELLOW LAB SUIT!
Meet Harley, an approximately 3½-year-old Yellow Lab mix who proves that the biggest packages really can hold the biggest hearts!
At a whopping 102 pounds, Harley is less of a lap dog and more of a lap dog with a weight-limit warning!
Harley came to us from a local animal shelter, so his past is a bit of a mystery. But one thing is becoming crystal clear: this boy is all about LOVE!
His foster family describes him as a big, gentle sweetheart who simply wants to be your best friend. He walks beautifully on a leash, is crate trained, and enjoys people of all ages, including the little ones. He has been around children as young as one year old and takes it all in stride. Wildlife doesn't seem to bother him, and he gets along with other dogs, too. Cats are an unknown.
Here's another little mystery about Harley: so far, we haven't heard him bark! Maybe he's saving his voice for something really important, like announcing that dinner is ready.
Harley is neutered, microchipped, well-mannered, and eager to please. He doesn't need a fancy lifestyle or a calendar full of adventures. He just wants a family to love, a comfy place to relax, and a home where he belongs.
He could be a wonderful companion for an active individual or a family ready to welcome a whole lot of dog into their lives. With a big boy like Harley, you'll need a little extra room to stretch out, some couch space to share, and absolutely no expectation of maintaining a personal bubble!
Could Harley be your missing piece?
This oversized sweetheart has 102 pounds of love to give and is ready to find the people who will cherish him for the wonderful dog he is.
Adopt Harley. Because sometimes the biggest dogs have the gentlest hearts.
Interested in making Harley part of your family? Please apply to adopt through Labrador Retriever Rescue of Fresno! www.labrescuefresno.org

Saylor – Black Female, 9 years young, 72 lbs.
MEET SAYLOR! After nine years, she's finally learning how to be a puppy!
Saylor came to us from a hoarding case involving 50 dogs. For nine years, she lived without many of the simple pleasures every dog deserves. She had never even known what a toy was.
Now, she's discovering just how much fun life can be!
This beautiful English Labrador proudly carries her toys around like a puppy, and watching her discover these simple joys will melt your heart.
A little about our sweet Saylor:

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!

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

Meet Kenzie (aka Lyngcha) – A Brave Little Soul Looking for Her Best Friend ❤️

Some dogs wear their hearts on their sleeves. Kenzie who her fosters have been calling Lyngcha had to learn it was safe to have one.

When Kenzie first arrived in foster care, she was completely shut down. She spent weeks hiding in her crate and was too frightened to interact with people or even go outside during the day. Watching her slowly learn to trust has been one of the most rewarding journeys we’ve ever witnessed.

Today, Lyngcha is a happy, playful, affectionate young girl who greets each day with a wagging tail and an adorable smile.

Wendy is the cuddliest little love bug!
She’s super sweet, smart, playful, and happiest when she can curl up in someone’s lap. She loves playing with other playful dogs, but when playtime is over, she’s more than ready for cuddle time.

Energy Level? Medium - High

House trained? Working on it. Wendy is still having some accidents in the house, particularly after playing. Seems potty pad trained

Describe how they are on leash? Very good.

Describe how they are with other dogs? Wendy loves to play with other playful dogs.

Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they? She was fine meeting Dusty the cat.

Buddy is a happy, spunky little guy with lots of personality! He tends to ignore other dogs and isn’t a big fan of cats, so he would be happy as an only pet or could potentially live with other calm dogs. Once Buddy warms up, he bonds strongly with his people and loves following them everywhere. He’s a great little car companion, loves being held, and is always up for some cuddles. With new people, Buddy likes to make his own decisions. Sometimes he needs a little time to warm up, while other times he decides he likes someone right away!

He is very much a “where are we going?” kind of dog.Potty trainedCrate trainedSully will go into a crate, but it definitely isn’t his favorite place to be.

Banks 1 years old Neutered Male

Sapphire - Black female mix, 7 months, 45 lbs.
Meet Sapphire, a true gemstone representing loyalty and love. Sapphire is a beautiful 7-month-old Labrador mix who is learning that the world can be a safe and wonderful place.
Sapphire was sadly dumped at a shelter, and was on the euthanize list until a LRRF stepped in to give her a second chance at life. She came into foster care carrying a lot of uncertainty about people. She is a very shy girl who doesn’t immediately trust humans, so she’ll need a patient adopter who understands that trust takes time. But once Sapphire decides you’re her person, you’ll discover a sweet, affectionate girl who absolutely loves to cuddle.
One of Sapphire’s favorite things is playing with other dogs. She enjoys canine companionship and would love a home where she can have a confident, playful dog friend to help show her the ropes. She also loves her toys and is always happiest when she has something fun to do.
Sapphire walks well on leash and is already showing what a wonderful companion she can become. Like many young puppies, she is still learning what belongs in her mouth. Shoes, remotes, and other household treasures can look like pretty tempting chew toys to her, so she’ll need continued guidance, appropriate chew toys, and a little puppy-proofing while she learns.
Sapphire isn’t looking for someone to rush her. She’s looking for someone willing to let her come out of her shell at her own pace. With patience, consistency, and lots of love, this shy little girl has the potential to blossom into an incredibly loyal and loving companion.
If you’re willing to earn Sapphire’s trust rather than expect it immediately, she may just become your most devoted friend. If you have room in your heart and home for this bundle of love, please fill out an application on our website: www.labrescuefresno.org/

Meet PERIDOT
Peridot is an approximately 7-year-old, 12-pound mixed-breed girl—possibly a Dachshund/Poodle mix—who is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and free of parasites.
She also happens to be one of those dogs who makes it very easy to fall in love.Peridot is sweet, affectionate, easygoing, and happiest when she is close to her person. Her tail seems to have only one setting: wagging. Mornings are her favorite because that means she gets to see her people again, and she greets them with the happiest little wiggles.
She is potty trained, crate trained, and a very fast learner. She sleeps peacefully through the night and has shown no food aggression.

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.

She's a wonderful communicator and will offer a soft growl when she needs space, which is just her polite way of asking for a minute. Once she's warmed up to you at her own pace, she's all in. Affectionate, playful, and convinced she deserves a seat at the dinner table. She already knows "sit," is learning "down," gives the gentlest "paw," walks great on leash, and loves her crate as a cozy, safe space.
