Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Pending adoption.
We have a transport set up to NorCal and OR leaving here from SoCal on 9/07/24 and we would love to add Penny to our trip for the right family!
Meet Penny! She is a 13 month old purebred miniature schnauzer. She weighs 12.6 lbs. Yes, she is full grown and at a healthy weight. She is silver and white in color. Yes, her tail is docked ❤️ She is spayed, current on all vaccines, microchipped, has been thourely examined by our vet, and is cleared to find a home all her own.
She is house trained, and perfect about going outside to use the restroom. She is crate trained, and currently sleeps in her crate at night or to nap in during the day. She will do great at transitioning to a bed in your room, or in your bed if you prefer that too. I've taken her on the sofa with me a few times to snuggle with her, and she loved being able to be next to me up there, but doesn't typcially get on furniture unless welcomed up. Leash training has been going well, since it's been cooling down she has been able to get in more leash time, but it was new to her coming to us, so it'll be something you'll need to continue with her in her next home as her confidence on leash improves more and more each day.
She is wonderful with other dogs and cats alike. She however does not need to be in a home with other dogs as she doesn't really interact with any of them, but co exists beautifully with them, so if you have another dog/cat that is low key, and wants a friend to snuggle with, she is definitely that friend as she LOVES nap time 😂 But if you are looking for a friend to play tug a war with, or fetch Penny would more than likely not engage much, or at least we haven't see that side of her yet 😆
She is young, but definitely has an old soul. She is quiet, and does NOT bark unless she is alerting you of something, and that's really when she feels like alerting you because it isn't all the time 🙃
She is the biggest sweetheart. She loves to be loved on. Cuddle time is her fave time if she isn't napping. Treat time is also becoming something she enjoys.
She will make an amazing companion to someone looking for a sweet friend to spend their days with.
She is awesome on road trips around town, loves her spay days with our groomer, and is ready to find a family where she can be the center of their world being doted on like the princess that she is ❤️
Her adoption fee is on our website at breadoflifek9refuge.org under her adoption listing.
It covers her spay. She was in heat at time of her spay so there was an in heat increase as she needed additional anesthesia time, and antibiotics to aid in her healing from her spay. It also covers her vaccines, microchip/registration, general anesthesia, exam of her ears/teeth (which were both in great health,) overall wellness exam with our vet, along with her time, care, grooming costs, and training since with us.
