TLC - The Labrador Connection

12/08/2024

We love success stories at TLC and this is one with a major glow up! Arlo found himself at a small shelter in Illinois where he was going to be euthanized due to space and being terrified of the world.

This boy proves that with a little time and love these rescue dogs can do anything. Arlo is now a canine good citizen and is going to be going to work everyday with his mom, who is a psychologist at a clinic. Good boy Arlo!!! ♥️🐾

Foster or foster to adopt needed for Bella 🩷

Bella is a 5 year old chocolate lab. She was purchased as a puppy when her owner was able to be home with her often and now that her owner has went back to work she isn’t a fan of that! They live in an apartment and Bella barks and cries and the neighbors are complaining. She is crate trained and housetrained. She is submissive with other dogs initially, but then will play with them. She is fine with cats and kids. She loves to play fetch. She needs someone who works from home or someone that can work with her and give her the reassurance that she’s not being left furever 🩷

There is still time to order from our wreath fundraiser until Dec 12. I can tell you right now you will not be disappointed. They are so full and beautiful and come straight from the farm to your front door… or whoever you gift it to.

SAFE!! Coming to TLC, watch for updates on him!

Urgent!! Foster or foster to adopt needed for Draco♥️

The shelter where Draco is at in Southern Illinois is Code Red which means they are going to have to make the difficult decision to euthanize dogs due to space because they have no place to put any incoming dogs 😢

Draco is 1-1.5 year old male, Lab mix. He is Dog friendly and they can cat test him if needed. He keeps his clean kennel, which means he could very possibly be house trained. He still has puppy energy, but with a friend he will wear it out. He walks well on leash. He was found super skinny, but he is such a sweetie pie and deserves a chance to know how good life can be!! 🐾 video in comments
