ADOPTED!!!!!

Sadie looks so beautiful after her grooming ! She is an 8 yo 16 lb. chocolate/liver female mini schnauzer who is still looking for her forever home in PA, DE, MD, VA, or DC. (more pics in comments). She is a friendly, barky, playful, active dog who loves attention and is a lapdog. Playing with her toys and fetching them is one of her favorite pastimes. She is a big fan of going for walks.

She is house-trained and crate trained. She is microchipped and up-to-date on vaccines. Sadie was spayed in rescue as well as having bladder stones removed. She will need to be on urinary prescription food the rest of her life to prevent the stones from reoccurring.

Sadie would do best in a townhome or single family home with a fenced yard with an adopter who would take her on walks. Children should be age 10 or older. She does not get along with dogs living in the home, so should be an only dog.

Sadie's adopter will be required to take her through obedience training. If you are interested in adopting Sadie, please private message us for an adoption application.

We are in need of fosters especially ones that don't have any pets. We have been contacted recently by owners wanting to surrender schnauzers that don't get along with other dogs. Most of our active fosters own schnauzers. We have a need for temporary fosters without pets as well to cover for people who go on vacation that are fostering a dog that doesn't get along well with other dogs.

Fosters provide food, love, and attention. Prescription food, vetting, and grooming provided by the rescue. Ideally the foster would live within an hour of Laurel, MD where our vet is located. Most of the schnauzers coming into rescue require some type of vetting.

If you are interested in becoming a foster, please message us for a foster application. Please note we are not looking for foster to adopt situations.

UPDATE: Frisky was adopted!!!!

Frisky is a 5 yo male mini schnauzer looking for his forever home in PA, DE, MD, VA, or DC. He is a very shy boy who is coming out of his shell. He is a retired breeder dog. He is still working on house training, leash training, and doing stairs. He rides well in the car.

He loves to hang out on the sofa and will nudge you with his nose if he wants attention.

Frisky is afraid of new people and will hide from them. He does not like being approached by strangers; however, he did great at the groomer.

With leash training, he would not even allow a leash to be attached to his collar when he came into rescue. Now he will allow it, but will lay down and not walk.

He was neutered and had a dental while in rescue as well as being brought up-to-date on vaccinations.

Frisky is looking for a very patient home where he can build trust with his owners and continue to learn new skills. He seems to find comfort in a home with a laid back dog who is not pestering him to play. He did have barking issues with a foster living in a townhome when he was sleeping at night in a room by himself or when left alone. His current foster does play music when she is out of the home. So far his only barking has been for food. Frisky's ideal home would be be a single family home with a fenced yard as we do not know if he will learn to walk on a leash in the near future. He does well with teenage children, but is at his best with a quieter, less active environment.

If you are interested in adopting Frisky, please message us for an adoption application.

Today is Giving Tuesday. It is a global day of giving. Please join the movement by donating to Schnauzer Rescue of the Mid-Atlantic. Through your continued generous donations, mini schnauzers are given a second chance at life.

Since 2002, SRM continues to rescue miniature schnauzers given up through no fault of their own and adopt them to families throughout MD, VA, DE, PA, and DC.

All donations received during this campaign will go directly to our Veterinary Fund, as they always do. Replenishing this Fund affords us the means to provide medical care to dogs in rescue, and sets them on the path to their new forever home! Schnauzers coming into our care need vaccines, neutering/spaying, dentals, bladder stone surgery, removal of growths, treatment for skin conditions, surgical procedures, prescription food, and monthly preventatives (heartworm, flea/tick).

Our Veterinary Fund helps mini schnauzers like Sadie. Sadie was given up by her family when they no longer had time for her. When she came into rescue, it was discovered that Sadie had bladder stones. The stones were removed through surgery, and she was brought up to date on her vaccines. Sadie is still looking for her forever home without other pets in the home.

Tax-deductible donations can be made through the SRM website at schnauzerrescue.net/Donate.htm (check or PayPal). Thank you in advance for your support!

ADOPTED !!!

Ella is a 7 yo 15 lb female salt & pepper miniature schnauzer looking for her forever home in PA, DE, MD, VA, DC. She is very timid and gentle. She is quiet, calm, and laid back. She came into rescue from a retired breeder.

She is house-trained. She is being spayed in rescue this week, is up-to-date on vaccines, and had a dental this summer.

She enjoys going on walks. She has learned to walk on a leash with a harness. She rides well in the car. She does not play with toys. She doesn't have separation anxiety.

Ella easily goes into her crate. She enjoys her safe space in the crate. Her foster leaves the crate door open and she goes in and out, but mostly prefers to stay in. This may be because her foster has a very active home with small children. Ella is scared of children running around but has shown no signs of aggression. When Ella is at home alone without the children she goes to the foster’s husband often and sits for pets. So we feel she will flourish with time and a quieter environment.

She is a quiet girl as far as barking. Even when she encounters dogs on her walks, she does not bark, but just looks at them. She enjoys being petted by people she encounters while out on walks.

She likes to eat with no one around and was used to free feeding prior to coming into rescue. She needs an experienced groomer as she is not fond of grooming.

Ella would do best in a quiet, less active environment without young children. She doesn't mind being around other animals so we feel she would do well with another dog in the home if the dog is laid back and not wanting to play with her.

Ella's adopter will be required to take her through obedience training. If you are interested in adopting Ella, please private message us for an adoption application.

ADOPTED !!!

Sunni is a beautiful 1 yo 18 lb. female salt & pepper miniature schnauzer looking for her forever home in PA, DE, MD, VA, DC. She is friendly, playful, and very active but also a lapdog that loves attention. She is house-trained and crate trained. She is a normal schnauzer barker but does respond to a “no bark” command. She loves playing with squeaker toys. Sunni loves her walks. She walks great on a leash using a harness. She rides well in the car.

She was recently spayed in rescue and is up-to-date on vaccines.

Sunni does not get along with other dogs in the home so should be an only dog. She was not socialized with other dogs in her previous home. She is currently not getting along with a laid back dog in her foster home. She growls and barks at him. She is OK with children 10 and older. A fenced yard is a plus but not required.

Sunni's adopter will be required to take her through obedience training. If you are interested in adopting Sunni, please private message us for an adoption application.

We are looking for someone within an hour’s drive of our vet in Laurel. MD to foster an almost 1 yo male mini schnauzer as an ONLY pet. Unfortunately, all our currently available fosters have other pets in the home.

This little guy is neutered and up to date on vaccines, but may require vetting. Foster will need to be able to continue working on his behavior training. He is house trained, crate trained, and leash trained. He has anxiety which may be alleviated being an only pet. He has also shown aggression with another dog when owner gives that dog attention. Family has already worked with a certified trainer and behavior trainer. It is best if he is an only dog.

He is barky so townhome or single family home will be best. Experience with behavioral issues and reinforcement of training needed. No children under 10 in the home. If you are interested, please message us.
