Sumo's story...
Hey there - check me out! I'm Sumo - and I'm a real sweetheart! I'm 3 years old (10/15/2009) and weigh about 8 pounds - though I should only weigh 5... Before I came to A New Leash On Life, I hardly got any physical activity. I basically lived in a playpen 24/7 - but obviously, I got plenty to eat!

Because of my previous situation, I am trained to eliminate on puppy pads. I do walk well on a leash, and I will go to the bathroom while on the leash or outside. I've just never been taught how to let anyone know that I have to go when I'm in the house!

My ideal home will be with someone who is home a lot - someone who either works from home or works part-time. I love being with people as much as I can be. I will also need a person or people who can walk me regularly and let me run around a bit so I can keep working on getting my physique back!

I like being held and I love sleeping in the bed with my foster Mom! I'm a very loving guy and my favorite thing to do is to just be wherever my people are. I will do best in a home without children - I prefer a quieter environment!

I've been neutered, am heartworm negative, am up to date with vaccinations, and am on monthly heartworm and flea/tick preventatives.

If this pet interests you or you have any questions about this pet, please fill out an online application and we will be happy to answer any questions and arrange a visit!

About Our Rescue Group...
We are an all volunteer dog rescue organization started in 2002. Our mission is to provide safe refuge for stray, abused, neglected and owner-surrendered dogs. In addition, our organization works to rehabilitate dogs (medically and/or behaviorally) to aid in finding them carefully screened permanent, safe and loving homes where they will live as companion animals. We also educate the community and promote involvement with regard to animal welfare issues.

Come Meet Our Pets...
All of the puppies and dogs in our program are in foster homes - we do not have a central location. We hold adoption events every other Sunday at the Brier Creek PetSmart from 1-3 pm. Our schedule is posted on our website.
Our Adoption Process...
An adoption application is required. Veterinary references will be checked, as well as apartment/townhouse rental references. A home visit may or may not be required. A contract must be completed and an adoption fee paid prior to finalization of an adoption.
We Serve the Following Cities, Towns, and/or Counties...
Primarily Wake County, North Carolina but also the surrounding counties of Franklin, Chatham, Orange, and Durham.
