Ig 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! “I was named Dori, but I’m not to be confused with Dora the Explorer because I’m definitely geographically challenged. I thought it would be a great idea to show my daughter Tori what the world outside of our yard was like, so we went exploring and we became lost. That’s how we ended up at an LA county shelter brought in as strays. Despite the fact that I’m only a four-yearold, female, purebred Miniature Schnauzer, no one was interested in a pair of street urchins. We were both filthy and in desperate need of a bath and a good grooming when the MSFR volunteers found and rescued us. Now everyone can see how stunning I am with my natural ears, docked tail and svelte 16-pound body. I even had a dental performed with no extractions required, so my teeth sparkle. Everyone says that I’m very sweet-natured and that I would do exceptionally well with another doggie pal Happy Tails to keep me company.” If you’re interested in Dori, please email info@msfr.org for more information. “Hi there! They call me Tori and I’m an adorable little three-month old, female Miniature Schnauzer mix. My mother Dori and I ended up at an LA country shelter after getting lost while on an exploration adventure. While I’m embarrassed to admit we have no idea who my father is, I am very proud of the fact that I have inherited my mother’s good looks. Currently, I’m a 12-pound ball of fluff with a most interesting coat that is silver with black tips and very elegant. Of course since it is my ‘puppy coat,’ the color might change, however, I Tori Congrats to mother and daughter, Bette and Joan finding their way to a new home together! haven’t shed at all. It appears that whatever my coat will look like, I’ll be a non-shedder. Everyone is speculating that when I’m fully grown I could be a medium-sized dog, weighing 25-30 pounds--but since I’ve a questionable pedigree, it’s only a guess. What I do know for certain is that I’m cute as a button and it’s a good thing because being a puppy means I need all kinds of training and someone who has the time to devote to working with me. I’ll need to know everything about obedience, housebreaking, walking on a leash, manners and the whole nine yards. Right now I’m pretty dependent on my mom, so I would probably do best with another doggie pal to help me learn everything a puppy should know. I promise to work hard and learn quickly and I’ll be the best thing that ever happened to you.” If you’re interested in Tori, please email info@msfr.org for more information. “My name is Carter and I must tell you that in addition to being a stunning little guy I’m also 16 pounds of love and affection. I’m not quite sure how it happened, but I ended up living on the streets before I was finally picked up, labeled a stray and promptly deposited at an LA county shelter. If the folks that passed up the opportunity to adopt me could only see me now, they would be shocked. No one could even tell that I was a 1.5-year old male Miniature Schnauzer mix. Although I look very ‘Schnauzery,’ I have shorter legs, a wirier coat and would probably be considered a low-shedder rather than a non-shedder. I’m still very puppyish--which when translated means high-energy--so I would do well with a doggie pal to show me the ropes. I’m a playful, loving, personable, good-looking guy--the whole package who would be a great addition to any family.” If you’re interested in Carter, please email info@msfr.org for more information. Congratulations to Bette and Joan, our mother and daughter rescues, and their new family. We are thrilled that we were able to place these ladies together because, unlike their namesakes, they are deeply bonded. Their new family, who lost their 17-year-old Miniature Schnauzer a little over a year ago, was ready to open their hearts to a new little gal. When they met these two, they decided to give it a chance. Bette, now named Georgia Mae, and Joan, who is called Piper Rose, live with their mom, their human brother and a grandmother in North Redondo Beach. With all of this love and attention to go around, there will be lots of cuddling in their future. Wishing everyone much happiness and many wonderful adventures! Be kind. Save a life. Support animal rescue. Saving one animal won’t change the world, but the world will surely change for that animal.
