My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

If you are interested in adopting Newman please go to www.TheRescueTrain.org and fill out our online adoption application on the Adopt A Dog page. Applications are required PRIOR to meeting one of our animals and are used to set up a safe and successful adoption. Please don't be shy and answer the questions thoroughly. To learn more about our entire process please visit www.therescuetrain.org and click on the Adopt A Dog page or email us at info@therescuetrain.org. Baby’s Got Blue Eyes! MEET Newman. Newman had a rough start but The Rescue Train has promised him a happy ending. Our rescue got a call that Newman was injured and living on the street. Animal Control never came to help him and concerned neighbors were very worried as no one could catch him. After a couple of nights the Rescue Train was able to bring him in and rush him to the vet. This poor pup had been hit by a car and has a broken pelvis, hip and leg. X-rays showed that he was also shot by BB gun. Even though he was in extreme pain he never tried to protect himself. He is a gentle and shy soul. Newman is now in a loving foster home and his broken bones and spirit are healing. After completing six weeks of crate rest it has been determined that he needs surgery to realign his hips. After he is completely healed he might still have a limp on his rear back leg. It’s been our experience after a decade of rescue work that this kind of old injury often does not slow a dog down. We can’t wait until the day when Neman is running and playing. His DAY WILL COME! Newman is a 3 year old Welsh Corgi mix. He weighs 18 pounds. He likes the other dogs in his foster home but has not been cat tested yet. He’s got a very sweet temperament. After all he's been through he is a little nervous around new things but does warm up and is a little lover once he feels safe. Once he is recovered he will need some obedience training as he’s going to be an active dog. We don’t want to put him with a first time dog owner but rather someone who understands his working breed. Newman is neutered, vaccinated, crate trained and microchipped. We will be looking to place him after he has recovered from his surgery: around the end of July -2014. Can you open your heart and home to a special soul? In return you will get a lifetime of unconditional love! INTERESTED IN ADOPTING?
