New Leash on Life! American Eskimo Dog Rescue's adoption process
Additional adoption info
As we are sure you will understand, all animals in rescue have been through some type of turmoil, such as abuse, neglect, or simply that the previous owner couldn't take care of them any longer. Also, many animals end up in shelters because of over-breeding. Therefore, it is up to the rescuers to make sure we find the best "forever" homes for each animal in our care. Sometimes, we end up with several people interested in the same dog. Needless to say, we can't make everyone happy but do the best we can for the dogs in our care. Please keep this in mind when applying for adoption.
We ask all prospective adopters to first complete our ADOPTION APPLICATION. (please e-mail NewLeashonLife@att.net for an application) Once we receive the application from you, we will begin working on getting a home visit scheduled. This will be done as soon as possible; however, sometimes it does take a while to find a volunteer in certain areas so please be patient. After the home visit is completed, we will contact you to set up a date and time to come meet our "Furry Friends". REMEMBER, you may not be the only applicant interested in a particular dog. All of our "Furry Friends" are spayed/neutered, heartworm tested, up to date with shots, and evaluated before they are placed. We do ask for adoption donations when we place a rescued dog. The adoption donations are to cover these expenses and to assist with the costs of new dogs as they arrive to insure that they get the care they deserve. Without these donations it would not be possible to continue to save other animals.

About New Leash on Life! American Eskimo Dog Rescue
'New Leash on Life!' Animal Rescue is a all volunteer "no kill", soon to be 501(c)(3), non-profit private rescue organization based in Poteet, Texas. At 'New Leash on Life!', we are dedicated to the American Eskimo Dog...often more frequently called "Eskies" or “Spitz”. American Eskimo dogs are lovingly nicknamed “Eskies” for short by their owners. According to AKC regulations, Eskies will only have white or cream/bisque colored coats and come in three sizes….the standard (15"-19" - at shoulder), the miniature (12"-15"), and the toy (9"-12"). The name "Spitz” is only a description of a "group of breeds with similar characteristics", NOT the actual the breed of dog. Some of the other breeds included in the Spitz group are the German Wolfspitz, Zwergspitz, or Dwarf Spitz, Keeshonden Finnish Spitz, and Pomeranians. All of these can be white, black, brown, wolfgray and orange or golden in color.
Although, we specialize in the breed American Eskimo dogs, we have had an influx of mix-breed dogs that have needed help so we have answered to that need! We have many abandoned mix-breed dogs in our rescue and other rescues that are in need of homes. All of our rescues are basic obedience trained and treated as family members until we can find them the perfect "forever" home like yours! If you can't find the perfect dog here...email us and we will try to help you find your special little "furry friend"...even if it is in another rescue!

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
