Toby, a beautiful silver Lab, came to DLRR in March 2025 after being found as a stray. It was clear that he was suffering from serious skin issues and hair loss, so DLRR arranged for him to undergo a series of tests with a dermatology specialist. In addition to his skin problems, Toby also had a urinary tract infection and hookworms, all of which contributed to his discomfort. Despite all of that, he remained a gentle and loving dog who was friendly to everyone he met.<\/p>\n
After many tests, medications, special baths, and treatments, along with the love and care of his foster parents, Toby found his people. He was adopted by wonderful long-time supporters of DLRR who have adopted several dogs from us in the past. We received an update and a photo showing just how far he has come. His fur and skin look amazing, and he looks like a completely different dog compared to the shy and itchy little guy who came to DLRR over six months ago. Here\u2019s to a happy, happy life for Toby and his family!<\/p>\n
Thanks to your generous support, Toby got the second chance he so deeply deserved. DLRR\u2014and all the Labs you help\u2014are truly grateful for your continued compassion.<\/p>\n

Aspen, a 5-year-old Lab mix, was found abandoned on a hiking trail in central Arizona, weak and emaciated. A rescue volunteer brought him to the Pinal Shelter, where his sweet and gentle nature quickly shone through, despite his shyness. At intake, Aspen weighed just 55 pounds and was diagnosed with heartworm disease, a life-threatening condition.<\/p>\n
Thanks to generous donations, Aspen received the critical treatment he needed. In May 2025, he was given two injections to treat the heartworms, and his foster family helped him through a calm and quiet recovery. Within a month, Aspen regained his strength and was ready for adoption. He was renamed Yogi by his new family, and today, he\u2019s healthy, energetic, and brings endless joy to their home.<\/p>\n
Your support helps make life-saving treatments and second chances possible for dogs like Yogi, giving them the care they need to thrive in their forever homes.<\/p>\n

At just eight months old, Hope had become pregnant by an unaltered dog in the household. She had not received proper care, lacked vaccinations, and wasn\u2019t well socialized.<\/p>\n Thanks to your donations, Hope and her puppies received the care they desperately needed. DLRR kept the puppies with their mom until they were eight weeks old, ensuring they developed properly. Once ready, the puppies were vaccinated, altered, and microchipped before being adopted into loving homes.<\/p>\n Hope was spayed, given medical care, and placed in a foster home where she received crucial socialization. Today, she\u2019s thriving in her forever home, living happily with two other Labs who love and cherish her.<\/p>\n Your support makes stories like Hope\u2019s possible, helping rescue and rehabilitate dogs in need so they can have the second chance they deserve.<\/p>\n Hope’s Medical Costs: $1,600<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/dodson.dev\/dlrr\/wp-content\/uploads\/DLRR-Website_Your-Donations-at-Work_Hope.png” title_text=”Donations at Work: Hope” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#FFFFFF” max_width=”1200px” custom_margin=”||3rem||false|false” custom_padding=”2rem|2rem|2rem|2rem|true|true” border_radii=”on|1rem|1rem|1rem|1rem” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ box_shadow_vertical=”6px” box_shadow_blur=”9px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ module_class=”b3_column” _builder_version=”4.20.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Poppins||||||||” text_font_size=”19px” text_line_height=”1.8em” global_colors_info=”{}” use_background_color_gradient=”off” header_4_font_size=”1.6rem” header_4_line_height=”2.2rem”]<\/p>\n Simba, a two-year-old red fox Lab, was rescued by DLRR in poor condition\u2014untrained, undisciplined, and constantly escaping his yard. His previous owner, overwhelmed by fines, surrendered him. Simba was affectionate but lacked impulse control, often jumping on people and getting easily distracted.<\/p>\n With the help of generous donations, DLRR\u2019s trainer worked with Simba, using techniques like treadmill training to help him become calmer and more focused. After his training, Simba was ready for adoption.<\/p>\n However, after a year in his new home, Simba was returned due to challenges with the family\u2019s young children and inconsistent training. DLRR provided Simba with a second round of specialized training, focusing on impulse control and reducing over-stimulation.<\/p>\n Today, Simba is thriving in his forever home with a family committed to his daily exercise and continued training.

Despite Penny\u2019s challenges, DLRR decided to foster-to-adopt all three dogs. Penny had a torn ligament in her back leg, and wasn’t leash-trained, so she needed medical care and specialized training.<\/p>\n Thanks to donations, Penny received necessary vet exams, medications for respiratory issues, and ultimately underwent Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) surgery for her injured leg. Penny eventually found her forever home with her DLRR foster family who fell in love with her.
