July 3, 2014 Page 7 Wowser Schnauzers Bertha needs a family that has lots of love. Happy Tails If you see a dog with a YELLOW RIBBON or something yellow on the leash, this is a dog who needs some space. Please do not approach this dog with your dog. Please maintain distance or give this dog and his/her person time to move out of your way. There are many reasons why a dog may need space: HEALTH ISSUES IN TRAINING BEING REHABILITATED SCARED OR REACTIVE AROUND OTHER DOGS Those of us who own these dogs appreciate your help and respect! Illustrated by Lili Chin www.doggiedrawings.net We are looking for volunteers to help with our Saturday pet adoption events which are held at the Petco located at 537 N. Pacific Coast Highway Redondo Beach 90277. If you are interested in volunteering and can commit to at least one Saturday a month, please contact us at info@msfr. org My name is Bertha and I’m a 6-year old female purebred Miniature Schnauzer. I was rescued from a high-kill shelter after the rescue coordinator contacted the MSFR folks. At the shelter, I was listed as a Standard Schnauzer because I weighed in at whopping 33 pounds. After being rescued it was discovered that, in fact, I am a Miniature Schnauzer who is VERY overweight: however, I prefer to be called fullfigured. Currently, I’m at 28 pounds but my goal is to weigh no more than 22 pounds. I am a very easy-going girl that LOVES everyone, and gets along great with other dogs. I’m truly a real love muffin! If you are interested in Bertha, please email info@msfr.org for more information. Garth has had a very hard life. Can you help him have a better future? Cami misses her former owners and needs someone to cuddle with. Congratulations to Marie and her new family. Marie, part of the Donny and Marie pair, was rescued from the Carson shelter now resides in Northridge. Her new family is lovers of the breed and it’s obviously a perfect match. Marie now has a 13-year old human sister who carried her around like a baby when they met. Much happiness to all. If you have any questions about a particular dog’s availability you can email us at info@ msfr.org. Please visit all of our Miniature Schnauzers & Friends rescues at the adoptions fair held every Saturday from noon-3:30 p.m. or check out our website, www.msfr.org. Our adoptions fairs take place at Petco, 537 N. Pacific Coast Highway, Redondo Beach, California. Schnauzers! Bet you can’t adopt just one! • Hello, I’m Cami and right now, my heart is broken. I am female purebred Miniature Schnauzer who is only 1-year old. My owner died and my human “sister” cannot keep me. My mother’s wish should something happen to her, was for MSFR to take her me in and find me a new forever home. Well, now I’m looking for someone to help my heart heal. I need some work on housebreaking and obedience training but I am really a sweet little girl who will work hard to be the best friend ever. If you are interested in Cami, please email info@msfr.org for more information. Hi I’m Garth and I’ve had more than my share of neglect during my 8 years. My owner was arrested and I was terrified but that turned out to be the best thing that could have happened to me. The MSFR folks rescued me from a LA county shelter and they took me in even though I hadn’t been bathed or groomed for ages and I was a matted, filthy mess. First stop on my road to a new life was a trip to the Vet where I had to have 21 teeth extracted because they were so rotten. Then I had to have a senior screen for bladder stone surgery. When the Vet x-rayed me to check for stones, they also found out that I had been shot with a BB gun and had a BB lodged in my hip muscle. You can’t believe how much better I look and feel now that I’ve the proper care but I am going to have to be on Rx dog food to prevent reoccurring stones. Other than being a little overweight (21 pounds) I’m ready to start living life again. I’m a real people guy and I’m looking forward to making some new doggie pals. My one wish is to find a family that will appreciate my sweet disposition and adopt me. I know that not everyone is neglectful and I’m ready to give all my love and share my life with a family who will love me back. If you are interested in Garth, please email info@msfr.org for more information. Hi – I’m Biscotti and I think they gave me that name because I’m a real treat. I am an 8-year old, male, Pomeranian mix who was rescued from the Orange County Shelter. The people at Yellow Brick Road say I’m sweet, quiet and have the most gorgeous, thick, soft coat they’ve ever seen. I get along great with people and other dogs, but my favorite pastime is chasing balls. I love to go on car rides and I like spending time with my family being held and cuddled. I walk beautifully on leash and am crate trained: in fact, I’m the whole package!!! There’s no doubt that I would be a wonderful companion for anyone. Biscotti can be seen anytime at Yellow B r i c k R o a d Doggie Playcare in El Segundo: call (310) 606- 5507. • Biscotti is a soft and cuddly friend for you. Marie has moved in with her forever family and is very happy there.
