Fortunate Pooches and Lab Rescueis dedicated to saving dogs that are abandoned in shelters and animal control facilities and providing them a second chance to be adopted into loving families. Our staff is composed entirely of volunteers, career-oriented people who extend their duties. We are recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as a qualified non-profit organization.

FPALR, Inc. is a not-for-profit, 501c3 organization.
We help unfortunate Labradors and Lab Mixes find permanent homes through public education, responsibility, and dedication. For adoptions, please click the "How To Adopt Our Dogs" link.
None of our staff take a salary from FPALR, Inc. We are ALL volunteers. All donations go directly for the care of our rescued dogs and puppies. It is up to you whether you would like to contribute to saving a dog. We appreciate your help deeply.
Our dogs are the HEROES and our number one priority! In addition, our adopters are special, because we understand that without you, we would not be able to rescue. We contribute to the community by placing dogs with solid temperaments in special-needs homes, nursing homes, and special families. We went to the next step of opening up an adoption center, which houses our dogs. Due to the fact that humans are unpredictable at times, and these dogs end up in cruel situations, an adoption center was necessary. This enables us, the rescuers, to be truthful, and in charge of the destiny of the dogs we save! And NO, we are not wealthy individuals. Our wealth comes from responsibility, compassion, love, ethics and education. Our fame derives from the ART of the animals we save from death! They are our Picasso's!
WE URGENTLY NEED FOSTER HOMES!
Foster homes enable us to save labs/mixes and are the backbone of the organization. Please send us an e-mail message if you would like to be a volunteer. This web site will always be under continuous improvement to keep visitors informed.
Please send us an e-mail and a home visit will be performed by one of our volunteers if you plan to adopt or become a foster residence.
Please ask us about our one-on-one dog assistance program. We are excited to offer a free dog assistance consultation with each adoption. There will be a minimum charge for any follow-up after the free consultation, which will benefit our labs. E-mail us at info@fortunatelabrescue.org.
