Miss Maple's Story

Note: Only those with a responsible dog ownership history and excellent vet reference need apply.<br/><br/>(For more pics, visit nr2r.petfinder.com or www.RoadtoRescueLA.org)<br/><br/>INSTRUCTIONS TO APPLY:<br/><br/>PLEASE read profile thoroughly BEFORE applying:<br/><br/>DOG APPLICATION LINK:<br/>http://www.roadtorescuela.org/dog-application<br/><br/>Miss Maple (female)<br/><br/>Intake date: 3/21/2026<br/><br/>Miniature Schnauzer<br/><br/>DOB 6/20/2023<br/><br/>Intake weight: 13.0 pounds<br/><br/>Adoption fee: $350, which includes vetting, microchip<br/><br/>Benefactor Dog: When we have a popular dog, we dub them a “Benefactor Dog”. A Benefactor Dog will have an above average adoption fee. In other words, for OTHER dogs where the adoption fee is minimal or waived due to age, health or some other reason (although we’ve likely spent hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars) a Benefactor dog will help us somewhat make up the shortfall. If this dog has an above-average adoption fee, she/he is a Benefactor Dog.<br/><br/>Good with other dogs: yes<br/><br/>Cats: yes (the previous home did have cats)<br/><br/>Vetting and other: altered (spayed), up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, heartworm negative, fecal negative, 12 month Proheart injection (heartworm prevention - injected on 10/2/2025, next due 10/2/2026), on monthly flea/tick prevention, microchipped<br/><br/>Health issues: can have sensitive stomach (low fat diet recommended)<br/><br/>Temperament: very sweet, quiet, easy going - when excited, she will jump up and nibble your fingers (this might be due to being a home with a special-needs child who might have had food within reach - she responds well verbal correction - we actually only noticed it when we were putting out food and all the other dogs were around as well)<br/><br/>Energy level: low-medium (she's fairly chill for a Schnauzer)<br/><br/>Groom needs: high maintenance; requires regular professional grooming, along with intermittent brushing to avoid matting<br/><br/>Biography: Miss Maple came to us as an owner-surrender due to a necessary move to help their special-needs child. They did have two other dogs... one of which was in the home prior to Miss Maple and the other being the child's service dog. They also had cats that have been rehomed, so Miss Maple came from a home with lots of animals and she did really well. She is kennel-trained and walks well on a leash. She is responsive and knows "sit" and understands when the leash comes out, she's going somewhere. She doesn't really mind bad weather but fireworks make her nervous. She does great during grooming and is used to getting groomed. Since she's been at the rescue, she has been a joy but we know she won't be with us long. We welcome applicants experienced with this breed.<br/><br/>**WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW**<br/><br/>*We do adopt out of state provided the adopter is willing and able to travel to us once approved. We do not ship or transport our animals and there is no exception to this rule.<br/><br/>*Most of our adoptable dogs are small, and they are never to be left outside alone, ever! We only rehome our dogs to adopters that plan to have them as inside dogs and part of the family! We do allow adopters with doggie doors, provided there is SECURE fencing and the dog is over 15 pounds. There is no exception to this rule!<br/><br/>*PREDATORS: IF THIS DOG IS UNDER 10 POUNDS, the dog is to be monitored and protected when outside at all times! PREDATOR-THREAT IS A REAL DANGER! For example, a hawk tried to pick up a Chihuahua owned by a friend visiting Ninna’s house... RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE VISITOR. Thankfully the visitor was watching the dog and the hawk was wrestled off of the Chihuahua but it did require an ER visit and she is was very lucky to survive. TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!<br/><br/>*NO SMALL CHILDREN!! As with almost all the dogs at NR2R, young children or a very active household is not recommended. Many of our dogs come to us BECAUSE of small children, thus we do not rehome our dogs to homes with babies or young children. KEEP THIS IN MIND IF YOU HAVE VISITING GRANDCHILDREN AS WELL! Even if the children are older, it would depend on the child AND the parent or parents.<br/><br/>*HOUSETRAINING: We do NOT guarantee that any of our adoptable dogs are housetrained. While most should be easily trained, keep in mind that they live in a rescue where they have access to the outdoors all day and are inside at night. Even if they were surrendered to us as housetrained, it doesn’t mean they will automatically be housetrained in your home. Housetraining them should be easy in the right home with time, patience, and consistency.<br/><br/>*KENNELING: We always recommend kenneling when you cannot supervise your dog. This helps with housetraining and any destructive tendencies until you get to know your knew addition.<br/><br/>*We do not guarantee the age, health or temperament of any of the dogs we rehome. Many of the dogs we take in come from animal control and rarely do we have histories and even when we do, many times the histories are inaccurate.<br/><br/>*Only adopters with a responsible dog ownership history and excellent vet reference need apply. If you bring this pet into your heart and home, you will receive in return many years of love, companionship, and loyalty. That’s our guarantee.<br/><br/>Other notes: This pet is available for adoption through Ninna’s Road to Rescue, Benton, La. We are 501c3 non-profit organization. Our mission is to rescue primarily small-breed dogs and to re-home them into RESPONSIBLE and CARING forever homes.

The first APPROVED application we receive will be considered. We are NOT a first come, first serve rescue!! We adopt our rescues out to the RIGHT home, not just A home.
