4 Paws Perth Labrador Retriever
Rescue
4 Paws is avolunteer, non-profit
organization dedicated to finding, permanent homes for unwanted or abandoned
Labrador Retrievers.
Most of our dogs come to us from owners who can no longer hold the dogs
due to marriage split or rental problems and dogs from pounds.
Under law Perth pounds are only required to hold dogs for 72 hours. Many
pounds do hold dogs much longer than this if they think the dog can be placed
or the owners found.If after this
time nothing happens they are free to be destroyed.
HOW IT WORKS
What we do is get an email from the owner or the pound giving a description
of the dog and a picture of the dog. We then email everyone on our email list and
hope that someone (maybe you!) adopts the dog. If we can't get someone right
away we place them in foster homes to buy time.
It is your job to then email or call the pound or the person currently
caring for the dog.You then need to
convince them that you are the best person to adopt the dog.
4 Paws LRR currently serves the Perth metropolitan area however we are
desperate to establish chapters in all major Australian cities. If you
wish to become a chapter founder for your area then email me at tony@4paws.com.au
Due to our limited number of volunteers, we cannot adopt dogs to people
who live outside of this area. We hope that as our volunteer base increases,
we will be able to expand the region that we serve.
