Liberty is a gorgeous 10 month old Yellow Labrador Retriever mix who was living on the streets. The kids in a nearby apartment complex frequently played with and fed her. A good samaritan posted a plea for rescue help on social media sites. One of our volunteers saw the plea and drove over to rescue Liberty on July 4th. Thus, her name. Liberty is a big doll! She now weighs 50 lbs, knows Sit, Come, No, Kennel. We are working on Stay and Down commands. She is eager to please and quite intelligent so she will easily learn more tricks with more training. This precious girl is potty trained and loves kids, dogs, and hasn't tried to try to kill the cats (she sees them through a baby gate). Her favorite things are plush, squeaky toys and her BFF, Solo (also available for adoption). Liberty is now accepting applications for visitors/potential adopters so please don't be shy. This lover girl labbie mix won't be around for long. Like a typical lab, she is smart, loving, and silly – a joy to be around. Note that she actually answers to Sandy and Sandra Dee now and fully expects her adopter to sing the Grease movie soundtrack to her on occasion...especially, "You're the one that I want" ;). Please be sure to check out her video and photos below.
Please contact app@aarfhouston.org for more information about this dog. You can apply online by clicking on Application. Once your application is approved, we will schedule a meet and greet at one of our adoption events. Thank you for considering a rescue!

The adoption fee includes vaccinations, Bordetella, de-worming, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip. There is a an additional $12.99 fee for Home Again for a lifetime registration of the microchip.
Puppies cannot be adopted outside of the Houston area until they are spay/neutered after they are 4 months old.
It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.
NOTE: In our bios, we provide information based on our volunteer's experience with a particular dog; such as temperament, training, and ability to get along with others.
AARF is a 501(c)3 Non Profit, all breed, no kill organization. Our group is always in need of donations in order to continue to give the needed medical care to our rescues. Adoption fees do not begin to cover all of the medical costs. Any donation, no matter how small is a big help and is greatly appreciated. Please help us to continue to help them. Thank you.
