Story
*** AVAILABLE ON-SITE FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS ONLY *** Meet Jan- a sweet girl in search of a lap, love, a comfy spot in the sun, and YOU! Jan is a friendly and undemanding girl who warms up quickly to new people. Pick her up and she will melt in your arms! Jan is a queen on a leash and enjoys short walks around the neighborhood. She is housebroken with regular trips outdoors. Jan gets along great with other dogs and prefers to hang out rather than engage in play. Jan’s favorite spot is curled up on the couch, soaking up all the coziness she can get. Jan prefers to be close to her people and would do well with someone who works from home or is retired. Jan does not prefer a crate and sleeps quietly on the bed at night with no issues. Jan is a volunteer and adoption team favorite! If you are looking for a loving companion who is quiet and laid back, then Jan is your girl! *A special note about Jan - this gal doesn't mean to be picky, but she will need to remain on a special diet for the rest of her life to help prevent bladder stones and keep her feeling her best. Ask one of our adoption counselors for more information!

LOCATION: LINWOOD, NC ADOPTION FEE: $400 PLEASE DO NOT SEND AN EMAIL ASKING IF PET IS STILL AVAILABLE, THOSE EMAILS WILL BE DELETED. IF INTERESTED YOU MUST COMPLETE OUR APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE, WE DO NOT RECEIVE APPLICATIONS FROM THIS SITE. WE DO NOT CHARGE A FEE TO COMPLETE AN APPLICATION OR REQUIRE SEPARATE APPLICATIONS FOR DIFFERENT DOGS WE MAY HAVE AVAILABLE. www.schnauzersaversrescuers.org MILO is a pure bred MALTESE, 5 yrs old male. He is white and feels like silk. He is UTD on vaccines/rabies and Bordetella, groomed and microchipped. He is neutered and heartworm negative. He’s on heartworm prevention and been dewormed. Milo never meets a stranger, no matter if it’s a dog or person. He adapts well to a new environment rather quickly. This little one is about 13 lbs. And he loves to be the boss, yet not in an aggressive way at all. He likes to talk to you and tell ou stories. Follows you around the house and learns very quickly. First day in his foster home, she moved the gate to enter into another room, turned around and within a minute, Milo moved the gate and followed her. He enjoys going outside in the fenced yard to explore. His foster Mom stays outside with him and he has good recall. He came as a breeder surrender, along with others. These dogs lived outdoors and still learning to go out on command. So Milo would do best being on a consistent schedule or a belly band in the beginning. He does well with other dogs in the home, but does like to take the role of being the leader. Kids should be over 10 as these dogs have never lived with a child of any age. If you’re interested, please complete an application on our website not on ADOPT A PET. We do not ship animals anywhere. We do not charge to complete an application. If you’re asked to pay to apply then STOP right there, you aren’t on our website. WE do NOT get those apps. He is being fostered in Linwood, NC, so you must be willing to come pick him up. If you are not ready to adopt now, please do not ask us to hold a dog. Requirements: No Kids www.schnauzersaversrescuers.org

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Luca—Our Silly, Sweet Boy  Say hello to Luca, our affectionate and playful 10 lb Maltese mix who was found as a stray in Orange County. Luca has stolen our hearts with his silly antics (he loves showing off his teeth in the funniest way!) and his love for cuddles. But behind that adorable smile, Luca has some medical challenges. He has a heart murmur, tooth decay, and gum disease that need immediate attention. He’s working on getting healthy and will soon need dental treatment to ease his discomfort and keep that silly grin intact. Once he has completed his surgery, he will be available for adoption.&#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 &#226&#158&#161&#239&#184&#143 Donate here: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=VJEXAFXEE84BE &#226&#158&#161&#239&#184&#143 Adoption Application here:  https://rainbowbridgerescue.org/applications/ Luca may have had a rough start, but with your support, he’s well on his way to brighter days filled with love, play, and wagging tails.
