Adopt a Yellow Labrador Retriever in Illinois

Yellow Labrador Retrievers are gentle, eager-to-please dogs that excel as family companions and working partners alike. Like other Labs, they end up in rescue when families can't keep up with their exercise needs. A yellow Lab from a rescue brings boundless enthusiasm to the right home.

Illinois has a large rescue dog community, with Chicago and the surrounding suburbs home to dozens of active rescues and shelters. Downstate organizations in Springfield, Peoria, and Champaign also serve large populations. A rescued Illinois dog typically comes from an active, well-connected organization.
