WHLR News

Due to the high volume of Labs currently in rescue, Wild Heir is closed to owner surrender intake. If you must give up your dog and have exhausted all other options, we can offer assistance by courtesy listing on our website. However, we have no open foster homes so you must keep your dog until you find an adopter and all interested adopters must contact you directly.

Wild Heir Labrador Rescue is seeking responsible, loving foster homes for rescued retrievers. As an all volunteer, foster home based organization (we do not have a shelter facility), we rely on the kindness of dog lovers to help these wonderful Labs find safe haven prior to adoption. We offer medical and training advice, take care of vetting, provide an experienced support network and actively work to place our Labs into carefully screened permanent homes. Foster generally lasts from 2 weeks to 2 months and is crucial to our lifesaving efforts. Thanks to an enthusiastic volunteer network , Wild Heir was able to save over 250 dogs from life threatening situations in 2008. Please consider helping a Lab in need today!
