2026-09-07: Meet Halo Grace!

Halo Grace is a beautiful 10-year-old black Lab who is everything you could ever hope for in a Lab- friendly, loving, loyal, devoted, and absolutely ball-loving!

We feel incredibly fortunate that Halo's family loved her so much that, after both of her people passed away, a family member contacted SCLRR to make sure she would find the wonderful home she deserves. We are honored to help this special girl find her new people.

Halo has been in foster care for several weeks, where she lives with another female senior Lab and regularly has a female Chihuahua visiting. They all get along beautifully.

Halo Grace has also been enjoying beach outings and daily trips to a huge off-leash dog park. There, she has met big dogs, little dogs, friendly dogs, grumpy dogs, crazy dogs, puppies, and everything in between- and she gets along with everyone, even the dogs who try to steal her beloved ball!

She is housebroken, does not need to be crated, sleeps quietly on her bed and loves to be brushed. She loves her balls and stuffed toys, enjoys her walks and trips to the park, and has the happiest, constantly wagging tail. Although not living in a foster home that has cats, Halo Grace has not shown any interest in cats (nor squirrels, for that matter) that she's encountered on walks. She does not appear to have a prey drive.

When Halo Grace came to SCLRR, she weighed 131 pounds. Her family clearly loved and spoiled her with food, and because of their medical circumstances, they were not able to give her the exercise she needed. The good news is that Halo has had recent blood work that looks great, including a normal thyroid. She has already lost 7 pounds and is now 124 pounds!

She is making wonderful progress on her weight-loss journey. Her foster family has also introduced her to fruits and vegetables. She wasn't particularly impressed with them at first, but she has gradually decided that some of them aren't so bad after all!

We are looking for a family who will continue to support Halo's healthy weight-loss and exercise program. She genuinely enjoys being active and loves getting out for walks and adventures.

Halo Grace is currently taking a high-quality glucosamine and omega fatty acid supplement. Because she appears to have been overweight for several years, she does have some arthritis in her knees. Thankfully, her hips are in great shape according to her veterinarian, and the best medicine for her knees is continuing her journey toward a healthier weight.

Despite everything she has been through, Halo is a happy, loving girl who is ready for the next chapter of her life. She has so much love to give and is looking for someone who will love her right back- and help her become the healthiest version of herself.

If Halo Grace sounds like the wonderful companion you've been looking for, please contact your Family Rep or fill out an online application to begin the adoption process.

This beautiful girl is ready to find her forever people. Could that be you?
