Ensuring a Safe Environment

At Atlanta Lab Rescue, we prioritize the well-being of our Dogs. We conduct home checks to ensure a safe and compatible environment. We require that the dog be maintained primarily as an indoor dog and cannot be chained or left unattended in a yard. Our goal is to provide a second chance for a happy life.
