Lake Erie Labrador Retriever Rescue Inc.
Lake Erie Labrador Retriever Rescue is based out of Bath, Ohio, and is again another independent volunteer ran non-profit dedicated to the breed.

They have rehomed over 200 labs in the last three years alone.

Northeast Ohio Labrador Retriever Rescue
Operating out of North Jackson, the Northeast Ohio Labrador Retriever Rescue began rescuing having fallen in love with a Chocolate Labrador Retriever that is no longer with them.
They serve Ohio along with western Pennsylvania and ensure all dogs available for adoption have been spayed/neutered, are current on vaccinations, and are dewormed.

Finally
These are the five lab rescues that you should absolutely start the process with.
Get in contact with each one and ask around.
Have those preliminary conversations and register your interest.
Besides, Labradors are a popular breed and there is typically a long waiting list when it comes to adoption.
Plus, you’ll need to submit and go through an application process too.
So, do make a start, be patient and trust in the rescue to find the right dog for you.
Other than this some closing tips would be to join a few local Ohio Lab Facebook groups and keep your eyes peeled.
Perhaps contact a few local lab breeders or clubs too.
The more connections you have, the greater your chances of finding the right dog to adopt and add to your home.
Otherwise, you can always check out Lab Rescues in nearby states too. It may require a bit of travel, but it may get you the dog you always wanted!
