Surrender Your Lab

At Southwest Oasis Labrador Rescue, we understand giving up your Labrador is a difficult decision. Thank you for considering us to help find a wonderful new home for your Labrador.

Below is the Application to Surrender. Please complete the application and a Volunteer will be in contact with you within 48-72 hours.

If this is an Emergency, please call our LabLine at (520) 554-0911.

Giving up your Lab is one of the toughest decisions you might ever face, but sometimes it really is the best option for everyone involved.

If you decide surrendering your Lab is the right path, we'll just need you to fill out a surrender form. Once you sign it, your pup officially becomes part of our rescue family, which means we can take care of any vet needs and eventually find them a loving forever home with a family we've carefully checked out.

Just so you know: When we place dogs in new homes, we keep things private on both sides. We don't share your information with the new family, and we don't share their details with you either. This keeps everyone's privacy protected and helps your Lab make a clean transition to their new life.

And if you're on the fence or looking for alternatives to surrendering, there are other options worth exploring:

  • Temporary fostering programs might help if you're facing a short-term challenge
  • Training assistance if behavioral issues are the concern
  • Financial support programs for vet care or food in some communities
  • Rehoming assistance where we guide you through finding a new home directly

Whatever you decide, we understand: no judgment, just support.
