Our Hospice Program began in 2015 when we realized that so many senior dogs were being dumped in droves at shelters. So we began a forever fostering program called Lab Rescue Hospice. Lab Rescue OK, Inc. has created a hospice fund dedicated to paying for the care of these special dogs. The hospice program also includes younger dogs who have a terminal illness, but do not need to be immediately euthanized. This program is designed for any Labrador Retriever who has less than one year of life left and needs a safe, secure, loving family with which they will spend the remainder of their life. Our hospice volunteers open up their hearts and homes to care for these animals. Since we do not adopt these dogs out and we take on the expense of caring for them for the rest of their lives, our hospice program is 100% funded by donations. Your donation will go toward: food, orthopedic beds, anti-slip shoes, medications, vet visits, heartworm/flea/tick prevention, joint supplements, winter coats and when it’s time for the last walk over the rainbow bridge, the final vet visit and the cremation. We always buy private cremations with a custom urn and a paw print and give those to their forever foster parents who loved them to the end. If you would like to help us give these dogs the love they deserve please click below to make your donation and the funds will be allocated to our hospice program.
