All of our dogs are family. Whether with us for 9 weeks, 5 years, or a lifetime, a Lab in our care is cherished family and our sacred charge. Decisions about what is best for each of our Labs, therefore, must transcend the sentimental: from time to time we offer mature dogs for adoption in order to avoid compromising on standards of care or parsing attention were our population to grow too large. We do not make decisions to adopt our adults lightly, and when we seek companion homes for our adults, we are committed to finding the right situation for them. Every dog is an individual, and each deserves a custom fit.
If you are on the search for a good Lab but not in a "puppy stage" frame of mind or circumstances, we welcome inquiries. Please share details of your life and intentions, so that together we can make an evaluation if one of our adults is a good fit for your family and lifestyle, and you for their personality.

Loblolly's Suffragette "Bellamy" available for adoption 4/2025
7 year old retiree in excellent health with OFA certification on Hips "Excellent" and Elbows "Normal"'; genetic & eye clearances
Up to date on vaccines and flea/tick prevention; spayed
Leash, car, and crate trained
Avid retriever! A fenced in yard and a willing throwing arm are a must for this girl. She is seldom found without a ball in her mouth.
Bellamy is very loving, affectionate, and smart, but she is not of the goofy, floor pillow Lab genre (albeit, we love those, too). A scholar athlete, she needs an active household. Bellamy is well-socialized with people and other dogs, but she prefers the company of the former and given a choice of canine companions, she prefers mature dogs of her size or larger.
Non-negotiables for Bellamy's adoption are at least one stay-at-home adult and a fenced in yard. She spends her day in the company of her Lab family in our dog park, so we want her situation to the limelight of more one on one, human companionship time.
Please contact us for more pictures and details regarding Bellamy. Adoption fee: $1200
Hi, everyone.
Chances are if you found this page you are a Loblolly family already, so we really appreciate your checking in on us. Things have changed here a bit since we took over the family line in 2016: our teenagers are now college grads and working adults, and we have retired all of our initial TN cohort. Several veterans are still here with us, but a few have gone to new families to claim more of the limelight ;) Our plan is in constant flux though as we navigate husbanding the right size population to maintain standards of care, nurture, and attention for all individuals of our Labrador family.
Please contact us with questions or for more information regarding adolescent or mature Labs that might be available: [email protected]
We are looking for conscientious, thoughtful souls.
