Page 8 March 13, 2014 Schnauzer, but there’s a funny story about how that came to be. I was rescued from an LA County shelter where I had been brought in as a stray. First, I was listed as a male. Then my listing changed to a female. When the volunteers from MSFR came to pick me up, they found that indeed I was a male and I wasn’t even neutered. Hence, due to my “waffling” gender, the name Waffles became mine. Please come visit me at our pet adoptions and see what a honey of a dog I am.” If you are interested in Waffles, please email info@msfr.org for more information. “Donovan is my name and stealing hearts is my game! I’m a five-year-old, male Corgi/ Brussels Griffon (?) mix. I was rescued from an LA County shelter where I was brought in as a stray. When I was rescued, we discovered that I get along great with other dogs--and everyone I meet just falls in love with me. Although I’m only 11 pounds, it’s all love and loyalty. Donovan can be seen anytime at Yellow Brick Road Doggie Playcare in El Segundo. Call 310-606-5507.• “Me name is Flanagan and I’m a playful, two-year old, male Miniature Schnauzer mix. We are guessing that I may have a wee bit of the Doxie in me since I am low to the ground, weigh 14 pounds and have a wiry coat. The ladies have been telling me that I am cute as a button and can’t believe that I was turned in to an LA County shelter as a stray. It was almost three weeks and I was running out of time when MSFR came to my rescue. I found a home and was hoping to stay with the folks that adopted me, but after three months they gave me back. I was a bit of bad boy and chewed a hole in their couch. I couldn’t help myself, you see--I’m still a young lad and in the chewing stage. I think maybe confining me would be best for all. I’m a likeable lad who gets along well with other dogs, so stop by adoptions to visit me!” If you are interested in Flanagan, please email info@msfr.org for more information. “Hello, my name is Melody and if you’re looking for a 13-pound cuddle bug, I’m your gal. I’m an eight-year-old, female, purebred Miniature Schnauzer who used to be a backyard breeder dog. Thanks to the folks at MSFR, my days of having litters are over and I’m confident that they saved my life! When the MSFR folks took me to their vet for spaying, they discovered that I had pyometra. That’s a potentially life-threatening infection of the uterus that occurs in un-spayed dogs. I am a perfect example of why it is important to spay your dog--even one that may be a bit older. It would have been tragic if I had died of this disease, which would have been the outcome, when it is easily prevented. If only my owner would have had me spayed! I had surgery to remove my infected uterus and can now lead a normal life as a happy dog. The vet also performed a dental and removed three teeth. I’ve been called sweet, mellow, quiet and adorable, but I’m also lonely and miss the love of a family. Now, it’s time for me to find a nice, soft lap to cuddle up on and give my forever family lots of love.” If you are interested in Melody, please email info@msfr.org for more information. “I know that Waffles is a strange name for a five-year old male, purebred Miniature Wowzer Schnauzer Flanagan Melody Happy Tails Donovan Sabrina Finds a New Family Congratulations to Sabrina, our “Schwheaten” (Schanuzer/Wheaten mix) who was rescued in January from the Baldwin Park shelter.
