My story

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

THIS POST WILL BE REMOVED WHEN THE DOG IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. INQUIRIES ABOUT THE ADOPTION STATUS WILL NOT BE RETURNED.

Melissa(DOB 3/19/2023), or commonly referred to as Missa, is a young parti colored Miniature Schnauzer full of spunk. She arrived as a nervous little girl in her foster home but quickly warned up to her favorite human, foster dad, as he is home all day. Not long after she has become playful with a resident dog or two. She is still working on her potty training and can spend a little time quietly in the kennel.

Melissa is still skittish like many rescue dogs and would rather follow you around than let you pick her up. She also is not fond of the grade school child in the home, even going out of her way to bark at him. Perhaps, she might come around to liking him. Otherwise she is a cuddle bug when she wants to, or terrorize toys or explore the house.

Melissa is spayed, healthy and up to date on vaccinations. She'd do great in a home with a playful small dog. She needs a securely fenced yard to keep her safe.

The suggested adoption donation for Melissa is a minimum of $600 and goes toward the high cost of veterinary care for our rescue dogs.Wag N Train Terrier Rescue adopts to an extended geographical area as long as we can locate a local volunteer to perform the required home visit. Approved adopters are required to travel to Omaha, NE to pick up their newly adopted dog. We do not arrange transport, or fly our rescue dogs without a "pet nanny". All of our dogs that come from a commercial breeding facility require a securely fenced yard AND a resident companion dog, unless the dog's bio states otherwise. Please note, invisible or underground fencing is not considered secure or appropriate containment. Adoption applications can be found at www.wagntrainterrierrescue.com/adoption-information
