Sully is a sweet and gentle soul with a heart full of love. He's an approximately 3-4 year old, 50 lb Labrador Mix who is currently being fostered in Saltillo, Mexico, and is ready to travel to the East Coast on our cross-country trip if adopted! Sully has a congenital hip condition, and after evaluation by a specialist, surgery is unfortunately not an option. Because of this, Sully cannot remain standing for long periods of time and needs a calm, low-activity lifestyle. Despite his condition, Sully enjoys car rides very much. He loves riding freely in the car, behaves wonderfully, and truly enjoys taking in the scenery. He is very social and friendly. Sully shows trust easily and enjoys being around people and other dogs, although he is not overly fond of constant physical contact. He is a pleasant, easygoing boy with a beautiful smile that makes him look like the happiest dog in the world. Sully is incredibly easy to love, and he will love his family just as deeply. He needs a peaceful home where he can rest comfortably, receive lots of affection, and live without the need for much exercise. Sully is ready for a quiet, loving home where he can be cherished for the wonderful dog he is.
Ideal Home
Sully would thrive in a home with a fenced backyard. He needs a calm environment with a low-activity lifestyle, so a family that enjoys quieter activities would be ideal. He's not fond of constant physical contact, so a home that respects his space would be best. He is not house-trained.
Ongoing Health
Sully has a congenital hip condition for which surgery is not an option. He needs to avoid prolonged standing. He is up-to-date on vaccines, dewormed, microchipped, and has received monthly preventive medication.
Training & Support
Sully is not house-trained and will require patience and consistency. Adopters should have experience with dog behavior and training or be willing to hire a trainer to help this intelligent dog succeed. Patience and understanding are crucial, as rescued dogs may have fears and anxieties and need time to adjust to a new environment.
