Page 8 March 9, 2017 Wowser Schnauzers Hopkins Echo Wishing Rizzo and his new family much happiness! Happy Tails it’s all friendliness and love. I haven’t met a dog or a person that I’m not crazy about and most are pretty crazy about me!” If you’re interested in Hopkins, please email for more information. “Hi there! My name is Echo and one day when I was out exploring the neighborhood, I somehow got turned around and I got lost. That’s really pretty easy to do when you’re a curious, little (14-pound), one-year-old, female Schnoodle (Miniature Schnauzer/ Poodle mix). I eventually ended up at an LA county shelter as a stray, but I was such Roosevelt 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 in Redondo Beach from noon-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! “They call me Hopkins. I don’t know why, but I think it’s a pretty cool name for a five-year old, male, purebred Miniature Schnauzer. I mean, how many dogs do you know named Hopkins? I’m not quite sure how I ended up at a local shelter, but I certainly remember what a state I was in. Talk about a filthy, matted mess… I had a deep cut under my chin, which required eight stitches, and several superficial abrasions. No one even recognized me as a Schnauzer and they had me listed as a “brown Terrier.” Everyone said my injuries appeared to be the result of an altercation with a car, but I’m not sure. Since I don’t know what an altercation is, they could be right. Once I had a bath and was groomed, it was easy to see that I was a Schnauzer and a pretty handsome one at that. Now that I’ve had a dental, my teeth just sparkle and I’m smiling quite a bit these days. I’m not very big, only 20 pounds, but a stinking mess when I arrived that my prospects weren’t looking too good. Then, to make matters worse, I came down with kennel cough! Is it any wonder that the one person who wanted to adopt me and the other three families that were interested in me decided to pass when they heard I was sick? I had to get cleaned up a bit before going to the vet and that was another new experience because I can’t ever remember being groomed. Now that I’m looking and feeling much better, my playful, fun-loving puppy personality has emerged. I have a great personality and get along splendidly with other dogs. All I need is to find my forever home and I would love to be a member of your family.” If you’re interested in Echo, please email info@msfr.org for more information. “Have you ever seen a “Standard Schnauzer” that only weighs 14 pounds? Neither have I, so it’s a sure bet that I’m not one of those. One thing for certain is that I am a fiveyear old, male Miniature Schnauzer mix named Roosevelt. After wandering around, I ended up at an LA county shelter as a stray. Everyone thinks that I’m definitely a Miniature Schnauzer mix and the odds are pretty good that the mix is a Silky Terrier. It’s a good thing that the MSFR folks rescued me and had me checked out by their vet because I had an umbilical hernia. It wasn’t anything major and was easily repaired by their doctor and I’m just fine, thank you. I also had a dental done--so in additional to being healthy and handsome, I’ve got some awesome pearly whites! I’m a pretty friendly little guy and get along great with other dogs. I’m also pretty adorable and am looking for my forever home. Come to adoptions and see for yourself what a cutie I am.” If you’re interested in Roosevelt, please email info@ msfr.org for more information. • Congratulations to Rizzo, our rescue from early November, and his new dad. His dad has had plenty of dog experience, having grown up with Schnauzers and a Jack Russell Terrier. His former roommate had a Schnauzer that strongly resembled Rizzo… so when he was finally ready for a dog of his own, he knew he wanted a Schnauzer. Meeting Rizzo was like reuniting with an old friend, so there was an instant bond. Since Rizzo’s dad has recently moved to California from New York, he now has a little buddy with whom to share all of his adventures in his new life. Wishing them much happiness on their journey! • Be kind. Save a life. Support animal rescue.
