Sunni is a beautiful 1 yo 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 would like to be considered to adopt Sunni, you must first apply. Please contact schnauzerrescue@outlook.com for our rescue's adoption application. Please be sure to keep a watch on your Spam and Junk folders if you don't see a response in your email inbox. If you've already applied, please contact schnauzerrescue@outlook.com to be added to the list of those being considered.
Rescue Schnauzers usually weigh between 15-25 pounds, they are up to date on shots, heartworm/Lyme tested and spayed/neutered prior to placement. We make reasonable efforts to evaluate the health and temperament of each dog, however we cannot make any guarantees.
We are not a shelter and do not have a central facility to visit our rescue schnauzers. All dogs are kept in foster homes located throughout the area we cover. PLEASE NOTE: We rescue schnauzers in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Washington D.C., and Pennsylvania. We can only accept applications from these areas. For a rescue contact in other areas, please go to our website http://www.schnauzerrescue.net and click on Rescue Links. We have a need for volunteers in Maryland, Virginia, Washington D.C., Pennsylvania, and Delaware.
Our website features lots of great information about the rescue process, book reviews and training tips. You can donate to Sunni's care at http://schnauzerrescue.net/Donate.htm via PayPal or check. All donations go to the veterinary fund and are tax deductible as a charitable contribution. Thanks for your support!

A dog is picked up at a shelter or turned over by an owner interested in rehoming his/her pet. (NOTE: Please contact Linda@schnauzerrescue.net if you would like to have us find a wonderful home for your schnauzer).
Each dog is checked by a veterinarian, given all shots, spayed or neutered, tested for heartworms, and treated for any medical condition detected.
Our dogs then live in foster homes where they are socialized and evaluated until they are adopted into a permanent home.
Our dogs will be posted here and at our Pet Finders website http://www.schnauzer.petfinder.com as they become available for adoption.
Applications are reviewed, reference checks are completed and applicants are interviewed. The applicant who best suits the individual dog's needs is selected to adopt.
The process can take as little as several days or as long as several months (particularly if there are health issues involved). The average time from when a dog is placed in a foster home until it is adopted is 2-3 weeks.
An adoption contract must be signed for all adoptions and an adoption donation is required.
Please note that we can only consider those who live within a reasonable driving distance from us. We accept applications from the following areas: southeastern to central PA, all of MD, VA, DC, DE, and some parts of southern NJ. We cannot adopt to those in NY, northern Pennsylvania, northern NJ or to most areas of West Virginia. To adopt a dog in these or other areas, please go to our rescue links to find the group closer to you. If you have any questions about whether you are within our range, please check with Linda@schnauzerrescue.net before filling out the application. If you are applying for a puppy, the adoption donation is $400 plus you may be required to post a spay/neuter deposit. For other ages, the donation ranges from $100-$350. Thank you!.
