FOSTER HOMES
NEEDED ! ! !
We are in
great need of
foster homes (in
AL, FL, GA, TN,
SC & MS) for our
incoming
rescues. Without
enough foster
homes, we cannot
take in all the
schnauzers that
have been
abandoned.
If you cannot
adopt a rescue
right now,
please consider
fostering a
schnauzer until
we can find a
forever home.
Fostering times
vary from a
couple of weeks
to a few months.
During the
fostering
process, we will
ask you to
assess
temperament,
personality,
whether they get
along with kids,
cats and other
dogs. You will
also need to get
the dog fully
vetted, - for
which you will
be reimbursed,
or receive a tax
deduction.
Yes, it will be
hard to let your
foster dog go to
it’s forever
home, but
remember, you
are the stepping
stone to a
better life for
a rescued
schnauzer.
If you are
interested in
becoming a
Foster Home for
a rescued
Miniature
Schnauzer, -
please fill out
the online
Foster
Application
Form:

and someone will
contact you.

a donation to
help with our
veterinary
bills, please

Thinking of
adopting a
rescue
Schnauzer?
Please give some
thought to the
commitment you
are about to
make.
1. Many
rescues come to
us from
difficult
situations that
involve
rehabilitating
them to one
degree or
another.
Some have
housebreaking or
marking issues,
others need
socialization
and ALL of them
need a period of
adaptation after
going to their
forever homes.
2. If you
are expecting a
perfect dog when
adopting a
rescue, you're
at the wrong
place. All
these rescues
can
become
wonderful
companions.
It depends on
how much time
YOU are willing
to spend with
them.
Obedience or
agility classes
are always a
great way to
bond with your
new companion.
3. Many
rescues going to
a new home will
have accidents
initially.
Having been
uprooted at
least twice,
they will be
nervous, - the
same way you
would be if
someone placed
you in a totally
strange
environment.
It's a time of
transition for
them and it is
often
frightening,
even though you
may have much
love to offer.
They will need
some
understanding
and time to
adjust to their
new homes.
4. If all
you want is to
feel good for
rescuing a
Schnauzer,
please don't
waste the
precious time
our volunteers
spend finding
good homes for
these wonderful
rescues. |

PLEASE ALSO
REMEMBER,....
Schnauzer Love Rescue is an organization of
volunteers, most of whom have full time jobs
in addition to doing rescue work. They
dedicate a great amount of personal time to
ensure these rescues get the second chance they
deserve.
All dogs coming into our
rescue program receive a full veterinary
examination, are brought up to date on their
shots, checked for worms, and are spayed or
neutered before we release them to their
forever homes. This is done at
considerable expense to our organization.
The adoption fees often don't cover all the
vetting fees, especially when there are
additional procedures required to restore the
dog's health.
Our rescues are always
fostered for a period of time to determine their
temperament. This helps us ensure we find
a suitable home that will result in a forever
match. This takes time. We
also do a Home Visit with the adopting family to
ensure a good match, and to ensure the safety of
our pets in their new homes. All this take
time. Please be patient so we can find
the right Schnauzer for you.

Getting Old Isn't Easy...
When his family dropped Buddy off at the
shelter, he thought he would die of loneliness.
All he wanted was to go home and be with them
again. Heartbroken, he waited until
finally a kind hearted soul took Buddy and gave
him the love he so eagerly returned.
Unfortunately, there are many others like Buddy, still waiting.............
Won't you consider giving a senior
schnauzer a warm lap
in which to spend his few remaining
"golden" years?
Oh yes, we know you can't afford the vet
bills for an older dog. But young dogs get
sick too, - sometimes even sicker than older
dogs.
If you can find it in your heart to give
an older schnauzer a second chance, please
contact us. We have many "senior citizens"
who just want a loving hand to touch them and
not let them die alone in a cold, gray shelter.
Won't you help a senior schnauzer?
After all, you will be old one day too.
Hopefully your family won't abandon you to die
alone and broken hearted.
"Buck" was 12 years old and still waving
the flag! He loved to go sailing and
anywhere else his humans went.
We were grateful for the golden years we had
with Buck.

"Family Match Program" where we place available pets with the family
that matches that pet the best. Sometimes it takes more time, more
travel, and more work, but it's worth it in the end for the pet and
new owner! Currently we have 46 wonderful foster homes within the 6
state area to handle the steady flow of minis needing new homes. We
are always happy to provide references of satisfied owners. Want to
