    LOLIN's Mission Statement
Love of Labs, (LOLIN, INC) mission is to reduce the euthanasia rate of Labrador Retrievers throughout animal shelters of the Midwest.  LOLIN will accomplish this goal by increasing public knowledge concerning the care, adoption and responsible ownership of the Labrador Retriever. 
 
LOLIN volunteers have united to donate their love, time, energy and financial resources to save as many dogs as possible before they are killed at these shelters by gas, heartstick or lethal injection . No dog should have to die because we, as humans have failed to provide for them.  Society, in general, is not providing these shelter dogs with basic life supporting measures, such as necessary food, water, shelter, medical attention, and much needed sterilization, and obviously NOT LOVE or compassion.
 
The dogs that come into LOLIN’s program, receive all medical needs, are temperament tested, and sterilized immediately! We also provide these dogs with a loving foster home that rehabilitates them while we locate their permanent forever home. LOLIN knows that our dogs will be an exceptional addition to all that desire a wonderful, life-long, canine companion.
 
LOLIN, INC. is a not-for-profit, 501(c)3, IRS Public Charity and your donations are tax deductible. Love of Labs receives our operational funds through adoption fees, donations, and various fundraisers ONLY.

    Please Help Lily!

    *UPDATE* 4/16/07

     ~All of LILY's Bills have been paid!!  Thank you so much, but please continue to donate to help dogs like Shamus, who has to go to the Eye Vet, that cost us $100 just to walk through the door.  We also have several Heartworm positive dogs we are treating and that is very expensive.  Plus, we used all of our emergency funds on Lily and we want to be able to help the next pup like Lily!!

    This is Lily, a chocolate puppy from Kentucky. The local shelter contacted LOLIN on 3/27/08 and asked if there were any way we could help Lily. The poor sweet baby was run over by a car! She came into the shelter with 2 broken legs and some major internal injuries. The shelter said that if LOLIN couldn’t help, they would have to put Lily to sleep. Of course we couldn’t let that happen!

    At this point, Lily has made it through her first surgery to repair the internal damage and is recovering in preparation for surgery to heal her legs. She has been adopted by a previous adopter who we know will do her a world of good! However, we desperately need help paying for all her surgeries and medical needs -the bills are already over $500 after the first surgery. If you can help at all, even if it’s just a few dollars, we would be SO appreciative! You can use the PayPal donate link below to use your credit card, or you can send a check to the PO box listed at the bottom of the page.

    There was absolutely no way we could let this sweet girl die because of careless humans who let her play in traffic. Please help us make sure that she has the best possible Forever story!

    "Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent.
    To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden,
    where doing nothing was not boring-- it was peace."
