Maine Lab Rescue is foster based all-breed dog and cat rescue, with a focus on Labs and Lab mixes.

Maine Lab Rescue is an all-breed dog and cat rescue, with a focus on Labs and Lab mixes. Animals are rescued from high kill shelters and other undesirable circumstances in the south, vetted and brought to Maine for adoption. We are a foster based rescue, rather than a shelter facility.

The first step in adopting a dog or cat from Maine Lab Rescue is completing and returning an adoption application. Your vet reference(s) are checked and a home visit is scheduled if applicable.

Our adoption fee for a dog located in Maine is $450, Adoption fees can vary if the dog is considered special needs or other circumstances warrant. The adoption fee for a cat or kitten located in Maine is $200.

Unless otherwise noted because of age or other medical condition, our dogs and cats are spayed or neutered. Adoptions prior to spay or neuter are considered provisional and become final when the spay or neuter certificate is sent to us. All pets available through Maine Lab Rescue will be current on age-appropriate core vaccines.

Adoption fees are non-refundable.

Maine Lab Rescue needs fosters!

Fostering a dog or cat saves a life. Foster care consists of providing a safe, loving, temporary home for a dog until a permanent adoptive home can be found. All animals receive a health screening before entering our program. We provide veterinary care, and guidance. You provide the love, training and home. The dog or cat provides you with love, joy, and the satisfaction of having helped save a life.

Young adult dogs, puppies and kittens are arriving in the coming weeks and will need foster homes while they await adoption. Foster commitments are generally 1-3 weeks for most, though sometimes longer. Fosters should be located within a 45 to 60 minute drive of Windham, ME.
