My story

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

We have a transport where we will be personally taking our dogs home leaving either 12/5/24 or 12/7/24 to NorCal and OR. Surrounding states will be added to our route if needed ☺️ We would love to add Mia to our trip for the right home 💙
Meet our beautiful Mia 💕 She is a purebred, silver colored, miniature schnauzer. She turns 1 on January 5th of 2024. She is set to be spayed on 12/3/24. She will also be current on vaccines, microchipped, thourely examined, and cleared by our vet prior to adoption. I don't have her weight yet but once I do I'll update it here. She is a good size, and leggy. If I had to guess her weight, I'd say she is a good 13/14lbs. She is full grown, and at a very healthy weight nonetheless ☺️
She is house trained, and will go outside to use the restroom throughout the day when asked to if needed. She has no problem going out on her own, and if you have a doggy door she will pick it up quickly as she loves when she is able to run in and out as she pleases without having to ask.
She is crate trained, and currently sleeps in a crate at night only. She has great house manners, so she is in our home throughout the day. She won't have an issue laying on a dog bed in your room aside your bed, or in bed with you to snuggle if allowed (she loves to snuggle 🥰 ,) so a transition from a crate to your preferred sleeping arrangement won't be a hard transition whatsoever.
She is leash trained, and loves her walks whenever she can get them so if you enjoy strolls around the neighborhood Mia will happily accompany you❤️
Consider her your new welcoming committee as she loves meeting people 🙂
She came from a young family that has never owned a schnauzer before, and admitted that they didn't think their decision through when bringing her home as they lived very busy lives. Between work, their children's school, and extracurricular activities they only had about an hour with Mia at the end of the day before their night ended.
Coming into our rescue here she had to learn how to socialize with other dogs, and how to engage in play. She had never had a dog friend in her life, so it was a beautiful thing to be a part of seeing your entire world open up the way it did here with us. Her confidence not only grew it blossomed. ❤️
She is very attentive and focused in on people, so it has made training very easy with her. She takes correction very well, and is always looking for approval and praise. She truly is a good girl just wanting to make her humans proud of her so if you are a confident, caring, experienced, devoted, and committed adopter then she would continue to thrive in your home too 🙂 She in turn will become one of the greatest friends you'll ever have 💕
She is not a barker, but will alert you of unfamiliar noises. She is great on road trips even if just around town. She would make the perfect passenger princess 💕 She loves her spa days knowing she will get told how pretty she is following every day after!
Her adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/__mia-2
it covers her vet costs, time and care since with us these last couple of months, and her training we have personally done with her♥️
Travel costs are in addition to her adoption fee if you need us to bring her to you which we will happily do!
