Robin Labrador Retriever Elburn, IL

Meet Robin: A Survivor with So Much Love to Give

Robin is a sweet and resilient 1 to 2-year-old lab mix who has come a long way to find her forever family. Along with her sisters, Ruby and Reba, Robin was rescued from the streets of Arkansas, where she faced hunger, pregnancy, and heartworm disease. Despite these challenges, Robin’s gentle spirit never wavered. She made her way to Illinois, raised her puppies, and received treatment for heartworm. Now, she’s ready to start the next chapter of her life with a loving family who will cherish her as she deserves.
