Story
PB for Pretty Boy. He was a stray. He was found to be shot with a BB gun, abused and scared of sharp noises and quick movements. He is extremely skittish and will run when frightened. He will need a secure fenced yard! As being retired we have gotten to know him well. He is house broken. He is not a barker. He won't bark outside even when he hears other dogs. We had him nurtured so it wouldn't be a stressful with going to a new home. He would do best in a calm home. He has no training for commands nor vocabulary He has never shown any aggression. I can put my hand in his food bowl. He would do well in a calm home. A military veteran could take advantage of free obedience training. He gets along with dogs, cats and people if they behave. He has never growled or shown his teeth. He is looking for love, trust and a fun environment. His potty breaks are approximately 12 hours apart. He is satisfied during the day inside with a bone to keep him amused. No regrets with this sweet dog!

Story
Hi! Brody is a sweet boy in need of a loving home! He is still a puppy, less than 1 year old, very loving and a fast learner! He loves new people and animals, when he gets really excited he will flop his whole body down on the ground at your feet to get some belly rubs! He has had a rough past, possibly abused and has been neglected by previous owners. Previous owners got him from the pound but they stopped taking care of him. He has the potential to be a great dog with some training, he’s so loving, good listener, and will stick by your side. I hope he could be a right fit for you and your family! All he needs is love.

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
