Story
HIGHLIGHTS:- Needs another dog in the home- Needs a fenced-in backyard Bob, a playful and energetic 1-year-old Miniature Schnauzer, is thriving in a loving and patient foster home where he’s learning just how wonderful life can be. Full of charm and mischief, Bob keeps himself busy with his favorite activities—playing, chewing, and, of course, eating. He’s very food motivated and loves using puzzle bowls and enrichment toys to keep his clever mind engaged.Bob is a social pup with other dogs and thrives in their company, often gathering every toy in sight and making his own little collection to lounge with. He enjoys playful puppy antics, whether it’s stealing slippers, boots, or the occasional dropped paper, but he’s learning commands like “leave it” and “drop it” with impressive results—he’ll even humorously let things fall right out of his mouth!Though Bob is still working on his confidence with humans, his foster home has helped him make great strides. He has now mastered leash walking and LOVES his outdoor journeys. He’s shy with new people at first and may bark when they enter, but with a little patience (and maybe a treat), he’ll cautiously approach to check things out. He prefers to come to you at his own pace, especially if you’re sitting down and not towering over him. With positive reinforcement, he’s learning to enjoy gentle pets and touch. Bob is now house-trained and will give signals when he needs to go out. He sleeps soundly through the night in his cozy bed from 10 PM to around 6:30 or 7 AM.The ideal home for Bob would include another confident dog to help him continue building trust, a yard for him to explore, and a patient adopter willing to continue his journey of learning that humans are kind and loving.Are you ready to welcome this fun-loving, toy-collecting, and treat-seeking pup into your heart and home? Bob is waiting to meet you!- - - - - Before being rescued, many of our dogs have had limited socialization, so they may need a bit of time to adjust to life as a family pet. Older kids are often a great fit for our dogs, and homes with younger children will be considered based on each dog`s individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may take a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of these dogs adapt quite quickly. Being a part of their rehabilitation is a truly rewarding experience. To learn more abou
