My personality

My story

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

Lisa is a beautiful 9-12 month old schnauzer mix – she weighs 31#, and is pretty much full grown. Her adopter will need to ready the house for a puppy, because she is still learning house manners. She likes to chew on bones, toys, your socks and shoes (with a preference for shoes – you need to pick them up so she can’t get them). When you leave, she must be kenneled. Lisa is active and energetic – she jumps to greet and will need to learn the polite way of greeting people. She can’t help it………….she likes everyone. Playful with other dogs, and her ideal home would have another playful pooch and a fenced yard for them to romp in (she respects the 4 ft fence). Lisa comes when called, but still needs to learn all the other basic commands. She is very alert to her surroundings (even what’s going on at the neighbor’s house), and tends to bark in excitement. The foster uses compressed air (called Pet Corrector) for correction and it is effective in quieting her. Because of the barking she wouldn’t do well in any housing that shares a wall with another family. Lisa can entertain herself with toys if nobody will play with her. She is housebroken IF you take her directly outside first thing in the morning when she is taken out of her kennel, every 4-6 hours during the day, and at bedtime before being put in her kennel overnight. Lisa won’t do her business on leash, so she really needs a fenced yard; a canine companion to be her playmate and mentor would be welcomed. We have not seen Lisa interact with children, but expect she would be fine with kids 8 and up – mature enough to keep their valuables out of her reach. Lisa is spayed, current on vaccinations, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $450 . Call 651-0771-5662 if you would like to meet this wonderful puppy.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Initial contact is made by leaving a message on the Second Chance answering machine - expect a return call within 24 hrs. Potential adopters will be screened, and possibly a home visit done before a referral is made to the foster home where the animal is currently housed. They can expect to fill out a written application, sign an adoption contract and pay the adoption fee at time of pick up. Adopters must be at least 20 yr old. If renting, the landlord's consent in writing is required or a copy of the lease brought with you at time of adoption. Must have familiarity with local animal ordinances so you know how many cats/dogs you are permitted - this will vary from city to city. Potential adopters must understand that their application can be denied.
