Page 8 January 12, 2017 quiet home, with not a lot of visitors. I’m very affectionate with my people and at 22 pounds, I’m the perfect size to accompany you wherever you go.” If you’re interested in Jack, please email info@msfr.org to set up an appointment to meet this little guy. He’s not very happy at our adoption fairs, so we show him by appointment only. “It’s absolutely amazing what a makeover can do for a guy’s confidence. I’m a 1.5-yearold, male purebred Miniature Schnauzer who was rescued from an LA city shelter. My name is Holmes (as in Sherlock Holmes) and I guess they named me that because my “pedigree” was a mystery. I was such a neglected, dirty, matted mess that I was hardly recognizable as a Schnauzer--it was just a guess. The shelter volunteers were so nice and took pity on me. They spent quite a bit of time grooming me so that I would be presentable and ta-da--here I am! They found that underneath that mess, the real me--a loving, energetic guy who likes other dogs and loves to play--finally emerged. At 18 pounds, I’m still a lap dog who would make a great companion for your family.” If you are interested in Holmes, please email info@msfr.org for more information. “They call me Rizzo and just like the first baseman of the World Series-winning Chicago Cubs, I like to play ball! I’m a four-year old, male purebred Miniature Schnauzer who was rescued from an Inland Empire shelter. I was there for almost three weeks and no one was Jack Rizzo Holmes Zuzu Congratulations to Clay and his new family! Wowser Schnauzers Happy Tails Clay, now named Presley because he is the King, is our Jack Russell Terrier/Schnauzer mix who was rescued in late July. His new family lost their 15-year old Pug earlier this year and recently lost their 13-year-old JRT. Clay turned on the old charm with his skillful game of fetc--and if that wasn’t enough, he sealed the deal with lots of kisses. He’s now living and loving his life in Walnut. Christmas definitely came early for Clay and his new family and we’re wishing them many years of love and adventures. • We are looking for volunteers to help with our pet adoption fairs which are held every Saturday at the Petco located at 537 N.

Bet you can’t adopt just one! “Even though my life hasn’t been a bed of roses, I’m not letting it get me down. Let me introduce myself: I’m Jack and I’m a five-year old, male Miniature Schnauzer. Initially, I ended up at an LA city shelter after being hit by a car. Unfortunately, my left eye had extensive damage and had to be removed. Obviously I wasn’t looking my best, so it was no surprise that there wasn’t much interest in adopting me. Then after I was rescued, it was discovered that my injury didn’t heal properly...so I had to have another surgery on my eye to correct the problem. I have to admit I thought I looked a bit rakish in my “patch,” but since I’m all healed the patch is gone. With all that has happened, I’m more determined than ever to have a great life. Now I’m on a mission to find a new home in the new year. I’ve been told that I am pretty territorial, so I’m looking for a home that’s adults only, with an alpha owner to remind me who’s the boss. Also a interested in adopting me and I can’t figure out why. Maybe it’s because I’m a big guy weighing in at about 25 pounds, but that’s the perfect size to play ball. I really am a great ballplayer. I can catch and run and you don’t have to worry about me getting underfoot! I’m super friendly and get along great with other dogs. I’m a good-looking guy and since I’ve had my dental done, my smile sparkles like a World Series trophy!” If you’re interested in Rizzo, please email info@msfr.org for more information. “Here I was out on a stroll looking at all of the Christmas lights and decorations when I got lost. That’s how I ended up at an LA county shelter just five days before Christmas. There I sat--no tags, no collar, no chip--waiting for my family to find me. What else could a two-year old, female Schnoodle (Miniature Schnauzer/Poodle mix) do? I thought I might find them at a supervisors meeting, where they do adoptions, but the event was cancelled so I was just waiting to go home. If the MSFR folks hadn’t been there to pick up another dog, that had already been adopted, I might still be sitting there waiting. I guess they couldn’t resist when they saw that my ears, paws, tail and beard all are tipped in a light brown. I’m just a bit of a gal--only 12 pounds--and cute as can be with my unusual markings, my sweet face and enchanting personality. They just had to rescue me and gave me a great new name. I’m now called Zuzu and I’m looking for a forever family to give me a wonderful life and to share all of the love I have to give.” If you are interested in Zuzu, please email info@msfr.org for more information. • Pets can get loose or lost through mishaps and travel quickly.
