Southern California Labrador Retriever Rescue (SCLRR) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) all volunteer rescue group located in Southern California. We have been in operation saving Labs in need of new homes since 1998. SCLRR is an organization dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and re-homing of Labrador Retrievers. We also offer referrals and listings for people wishing to adopt or re-home a Lab.
If you desire to adopt a Labrador Retriever from SCLRR, you must complete an Adoption Application online. A copy of your completed application will then be sent to you in an email message. You will print out that copy, sign it and mail it to us along with a $20 check or money order non-refundable application fee, and lastly receive a home visit by an SCLRR family rep (we need to meet everyone in the family and observe your home ‘set up’ for a dog). At this time, we accept applications from residents of most areas within Los Angeles, Orange, and Ventura Counties and coastal Santa Barbara County. We also serve, dependent on volunteer availability, a few portions of San Bernardino County - if you live in San Bernardino County please contact us before applying to see if we currently have a volunteer in your area. Once a family has had their homecheck approved, they are added to the database of SCLRR-approved families. It is from this database that the Foster Parents select the match for the Lab they are fostering. If you are interested in a particular Lab, please notify your Family Rep who will contact the Foster Parent with your approved application and homecheck notes. Foster parents read through these applications and will likely call for a phone interview if they feel your family is a potential match for their foster Lab. If a Foster parent sets up a meeting for your family to meet their foster Lab, you will travel to their home. It is at this meeting that the adoption process may be finalized and you can take home your new addition! It is the foster parent’s sole decision when placing a SCLRR foster dog.
