Page 8 November 3, 2016 Wowser Schnauzers Eugene McGee We are looking for volunteers to help with our pet adoption fairs which are held every Saturday at the Petco located at 537 N. Pacific Coast Highway Redondo Beach 90277, from noon to 3:30 p.m. If you are interested in volunteering and can commit to at least one Saturday a month, please contact us at info@msfr.org. You can also visit all of our Miniature Schnauzers & Friends rescues at the adoption fair or check out our website, www.msfr.org. If you have any questions about a particular dog’s availability you can email us at info@msfr.org. Schnauzers. Bet you can’t adopt just one. Let me introduce myself, I’m Eugene, a 3-year-old male purebred Miniature Schnauzer. One night my brother, Banks, and I decided to go for a walk and visit some pals. The next thing we knew we were at an Inland Empire shelter and we were labeled as strays. So much for socialization! I love hanging out with other dogs and since, at 21 pounds, I’m larger than my brother I guess I’m the “big” brother. The shelter folks said we were 4 years of age but everyone thinks we act a lot more like 3 than 4. If you’re looking for a handsome guy to enrich your life, I definitely would be the perfect companion for you! If you are interested in Eugene, please email info@msfr.org for more information. I believe that you’ve met my brother, Eugene, and heard our tale. I’m Banks, and at 17 pounds, I’m the “little” brother. I too am a male, purebred Miniature Schnauzer whose behavior more resembles that of a 3 year old than that of a 4 year old. Who would have Happy Tails ever guessed when my brother and I left home for evening of getting together with friends that we end up in a life changing adventure? It’s a good thing that I’m very likeable and that I get along with other dogs. Before I was rescued from an Inland Empire Shelter I met some pooches of very questionable character but was able to win them over. I’m sure once you meet me and see what a treasure I am you won’t be able to leave without wanting to adopt me. If you’re interested in Banks, please email info@msfr.org for more information. Hello, it’s me. My new name’s McGee and Banks Ricky Ditto is one of two recent amputees, who were happily rescued and now part of a fun, new family! I am a 2-year-old male purebred Miniature Schnauzer. Not quite sure how it happened but I ended at an L.A. area shelter where everyone called me a stray. I heard that I was going to be adopted by someone but they must have changed their mind because no one ever came for me. Unbeknownst to me, the MSFR folks had heard my story and when it looked like I was going to be stuck at the shelter, they swooped in and rescued me. I’m a very good-natured pup who gets along with everyone. I’m still a youngster so I’m very playful but I have a really sweet face that no one can resist. I’m a bit tall for my 21 pounds but I expect that I’ll fill in. I have natural ears, a docked tail and if I have to say so myself I’m quite the looker. If you are interested in McGee, please email info@ msfr.org for more information. My original name was Lucky but boy, my life has been anything but! It’s hard to imagine that I was abandoned at a doggie day care facility when I was two years old. Seriously, who would do such a thing to an adorable apricot Miniature Poodle? The owner of the doggie day care was really nice and found me a great home with a loving family. They decided to give me a new name for my new life so they named me Ricky. I thought my problems were behind me until I lost my sight due to juvenile cataracts at age 4. I have to admit that at first it was pretty rough but with the love and support of my family I adjusted without ever losing my good-natured disposition. Little did I know that the hardest blow was yet to come. Recently, my loving and adoring Dad became very ill and is now in hospice care so at 8 years of age, here I am looking for my forever family - again. I’m a very affectionate, loyal, well-mannered, quiet little guy. Despite everything life has handed me, I still have a lot of love and life to share with someone who will just give me a chance. If you’re looking for wonderful, loyal companion I just know I’m exactly the one to fill that bill. If you’re interested in Ricky please email gin.munoz@gmail.com. • Another celebration is in order Congratulations to Ditto and his new family. Ditto is one of the two recent amputees, the other being Serena, who were rescued from a shelter shortly after the 4th of July. In addition to being avid MSFR supporters, Ditto’s new Mom and Dad are also extended family of a MSFR 2014 alumnus. Poppy, formerly known as Beverly, was adopted by Ditto’s mom’s mother so that makes Poppy his aunt. He also has a Schnauzer sister named Schooner who is also a rescue. It sounds like there’s going to be a lot of fun, happiness and many adventures in this family. •
