There are lots of lab and chow rescue groups who could help you place the dog in the "right" home. Search the internet for rescue groups in your area (I live in the triangle, try [L]www.bfpa.org[/L], [L]animalrescue.net[/L], and [L]www.pagesz.net/~secondchance/[/L]) or try contacting [L]www.projectbreed.org[/L] - they should be able to direct you to the right rescue people. Good luck
