My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

UPDATE ON DAISY DUKE: It's the first week of October and Daisy has visited the vets and been allergy tested. Poor baby, no wonder she was to itchy--she has several allergies. BUT, the good news is the doggie dermatologist feels she can be helped with regular allergy shots. Just like people doctors help their patients with allergy shots!! These are simple to give at home and once she is on maintenance, Daisy will only need them once every couple of weeks. Such a small price to pay to no longer be an itchy dog!!!! Daisy is just beginning to look for her forever home now that we know what kind of treatments she needs for her allergies. Read more below and see how to adopt Daisy Duke!!!

Say hello to Daisy Duke!!! Isn't she a sweet-pie, cutie little darlin'? Daisy is a liver-colored Miniature Schnauzer. She is so sweet and laid back and is doing very well with her doggy foster brothers and kitty foster siblings, too. Every so often, you will see Daisy and one of her foster brothers race romping through the house in play. Daisy is having some allergy problems, like many Schnauzers in the summer, and we are vetting her to get her some relief. Daisy is taking medication to control her allergies and give her some relief. Right now, the medication she is on runs about $90 per month. We hope to be able to reduce this dosing at some point to about half of that. She may need further evaluation in the future, perhaps allergy testing and regular immunotherapy shots, but she is feeling so much better. If interested in learning more about SFRA's adoption policies and coverage area, please check out our online application to adopt found at sfra.net.

UPDATE:::::: We have worked diligently with our vets and little Daisy to get her some relief but we've not had the results we had hoped for. We are placing Daisy on medical hold for right now so that we can allergy test her and design a new plan of treatment so she can get even more relief than we've been able to give her up to this point. The testing and treatments are expensive and SFRA sincerely needs your help in curbing some of these expenses. Please help Daisy by donating to us at the address found on our Ways to Help page on our website, by emailing kismet1@fuse.net for the address to snail mail donations to or our PayPal direct address. Daisy is the sweetest thing ever and will so appreciate a life that does not involve incessant scratching and skin problems caused by allergies--your donation can help us achieve that for Daisy.

SFRA is a 501c3 non-profit since 1996. We depend solely upon donations from the public to continue in our mission to rescue homeless Miniature Schnauzers, rehabilitate them, and place them into loving forever homes. If you cannot foster or adopt but would like to contribute to our cause, please visit our website at www.sfra.net for ways to donate (goods, services, snail mail addy for checks) or contribute through PayPal at trvogt@fuse.net All contributions are tax deductible and greatly appreciated by the dogs we help.
