Schnauzer Rescue of the Carolinas, Inc. (SRC) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization -- all of our adoption donations go toward helping care for other rescued Schnauzers and Honorary Schnauzers in need of medical care. We are a group of volunteers whose area of operation is within the areas of North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and Eastern Tennessee. We also adopt only to people located in those specific areas. SRC does not adopt outside of those specific areas so please do not request a waiver.. This non-profit organization's sole purpose is to prevent cruelty of animals specifically canines by rescuing them and securing loving, permanent homes for displaced Miniature, Standard and Giant Schnauzers plus Honorary Schnauzers when room allows. SRC also works to help educate the public about their breed traits, health and nutritional needs to assure their future health and happiness. We also emphasize the importance of spay/neuter and micro-chipping to protect the health and security of your beloved canines. SRC works diligently to educate the public as to the importance of good dental care in extending the life expectancy of their dog's healthy lifespan.

SRC fosters each one of our rescued canines in a loving family environment and spends many personal hours working with them to ensure that they are ready (both physically and emotionally) to move into his or her new forever home when adopted. Every rescued canine spends a minimum of two weeks in their foster home before being released for adoption. This evaluation allows the foster parent to give the new family a very good idea about the demeanor of their newly adopted dog, and better prepares them to understand what to expect when taking their new family companion home. Each SRC dog is vetted by an SRC approved vet. Each dog is given a thorough examination, de-wormed, given all necessary vaccinations, spayed/neutered, micro-chipped and provided any other medical procedures deemed necessary by our vet ( such as dentals, ear cleaning, nail trim, etc.) The micro-chip is done for their future safety prior to being adopted from our custody and SRC remains secondary after the adoptive parents have the dog's micro-chip registered in their in their name by SRC. In this way SRC is able to help should the canine become lost or stolen and the adoptive parents are not available, SRC would be able to claim the dog and hold them until we could contact the adoptive parents. SRC is committed to the full lifetime happiness and welfare of each rescued canine that comes into our safe haven whether it is a Mini, Standard, Giant, or "Honorary" Schnauzer. As of June, 2021, Schnauzer Rescue of the Carolinas, Inc. will have been in operation as reputable and successful rescue organization for eighteen(18) years Our nonprofit organization has placed well at least 5000 Schnauzers and "Honorary" Schnauzers plus made a large number of referrals that resulted in saving the lives of many worthy canines. In fact, our organization has even placed about 14 Felines with courtesy listings and even one Parrot, so our worthy mission is alive and well. We are most grateful to all those generous and dedicated volunteers who have put in so many long hours and have asked nothing in return except that these animals live well,be happy and flourish! Bless them all.
