Story
I found Lucky on a trail and rescued him. He was covered in mange and very thin. I took him to vet where he was treated for all issues. He is approximately 10 months old. I have had him for 4 months. He is a high energy pup who loves to run and play. He's sweet and loving to others including children. He likes daily walks. I am 66 and cannot keep up with him. I'm disabled from 3 spine surgeries and cannot give him the attention he needs. He would do well in a home where he can run and play outside. He is crate trained.

Story
OWNER PLACEMENT  ASSISTED BY SCHNAUZER RESCUE OF THE CAROLINAS     Bear (SRC#3102)was born on November 8, 2022. He is being placed for adoption because his human Mommy passed away recently and his human Dad can no longer provide the many (7 Schnauzers) in his family with the attention he wants them to have.  Their human Dad loves them with all his heart and is determined that each one of them receive the best possible future they can have. SRC is committed to helping him assure that happens. This adorable pup is very loving and has  been raised in remarkable fashion.  Bear receives bottled water to drink, and in addition to his kibble and canned dogfood, his dinner meal consists of a lean meat cooked with veggies (no corn).   Bear is  leash trained with halter; yet it has been some time since he has been able to be walked on leashes since their human Mom became ill, so therefore a fenced yard is a must. This Mini male is exceptionally loving yet he has never been exposed to children so it is best if Bear is placed in a home that does not have younger children in it. Bear has not yet been neutered, because when he was only 16 weeks old, Bear  broke his hind leg and was in a cast for a long period of time.  Since he was so  fragile, his loving owner has never had Bear neutered for fear of it changing his personality since he had to spend such a long time healing. Bear cannot be neutered without the thorough examination of a vet after he has settled in to his new adoptive home.  We at SRC and his current owner do not wish to have Bear go through such trauma immediately upon leaving his loving home. Bear must have a vet's recommendation that he is able to be neutered and then a tax letter will be provided for that expenditure. Bear is heartworm negative and has had all his vaccinations. If Bear is placed with another dog, it should be a spayed female.    THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN CLAYTON, N.C. THE DONATION BEING REQUESTED IN HONOR OF THE ADOPTION IS: $325 and tax letter will be provided for neuter if vet recommends that he is able to be altered. Please submit a completed adoption application and with that application, submit vet records for any pets you have had within the last 5 years along with photos of your residence including the yard (including the fencing).  The owner of this Schnauzer will review all approved applications and documentation that SRC sends to them.  Once they have discussed this documentation with the Director of SRC, they will contact you to ask questions and to answer any questions you may have.  At that point if a meet and greet has been scheduled, an adoption contract will be sent to you which you must sign and return to SRC.  If the meet and greet goes well, your donation of $500.00       (tax deductible)  may be made online so that the release of these Schnauzers may happen.  SRC will notify the owner of  Teddy and Bear when the donation is completed so that they may release them to their new adoptive home.  SRC will register their micro-chips in the new adoptive parents’ name(s) at no additional charge.October 28, 2024, 2:28 pm

Story
OWNER PLACEMENT  ASSISTED BY SCHNAUZER RESCUE OF THE CAROLINAS   Teddy (SRC#3101) was born on November 8, 2022. Teddy is the alpha of his litter. Teddy is  being placed for adoption because their human Mommy passed away recently and their human Dad can no longer provide him with the attention he wants all of his minis  to have. While their human Mom was sick, it slipped their minds to have their Minis (two males and a female) altered so in due time they ended up with an additional 5 puppies.  Teddy could have been their father.  Their human Dad loves each of them with all his heart and is determined that they have the best possible future together. SRC is committed to helping him assure that happens.  Each one of the Minis are placed for adoption and several have already been placed. This adorable pup is very loving and have been raised in remarkable fashion.  He has received bottled water to drink, and in addition to his kibble and canned dogfood, Teddy and all the other Minis have a dinner meal which consists of a lean meat cooked with veggies (no corn).  Teddy is  leash trained with halter; yet it has been some time since he has been able to be walked on a leash since their human Mom became ill, so therefore a fenced yard is a must. This Mini male is exceptionally loving yet he has never been exposed to children so it is best if he is placed in a home that does not have younger children in it. Teddy is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations. If Teddy is placed with another dog, it should be a female since he has an alpha personality.    THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN CLAYTON, N.C. THE DONATION BEING REQUESTED IN HONOR OF THE ADOPTION IS: $400. Please submit a completed adoption application and with that application, submit vet records for any pets you have had within the last 5 years along with photos of your residence including the yard (including the fencing).  The owner of this Schnauzer will review all approved applications and documentation that SRC sends to them.  Once they have discussed this documentation with the Director of SRC, they will contact you to ask questions and to answer any questions you may have.  At that point if a meet and greet has been scheduled, an adoption contract will be sent to you which you must sign and return to SRC.  If the meet and greet goes well, your donation of $500.00       (tax deductible)  may be made online so that the release of these Schnauzers may happen.  SRC will notify the owner of  Teddy and Bear when the donation is completed so that they may release them to their new adoptive home.  SRC will register their micro-chips in the new adoptive parents’ name(s) at no additional charge.October 28, 2024, 2:28 pm
