Salsa (AG25-53)'s Story

HIGHLIGHTS -May need a confident established dog in the home Meet Salsa - A sensitive soul looking for a quiet place to land. Salsa is a 6-year-old Schnauzer who weighs 17.5 pounds. He's a shy and nervous boy right now, still figuring out how to navigate the world and learning that people can be kind. Though he's hesitant, there's a sweetness in his eyes that shows he wants to trust-he just needs time and patience to get there. Salsa would thrive in a calm, predictable home with an experienced adopter who can offer gentle encouragement and a peaceful routine. Every small sign of progress will be meaningful with this tender-hearted pup, and helping him come out of his shell will be a truly rewarding experience. He may also benefit from having another calm, confident dog in the home to help guide and comfort him as he adjusts to a new life. ---- Before being rescued, many of our dogs had limited socialization, so they may need some 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 about mill dogs and start the adoption process, visit our website!

Thank you for your interest! If you have not already done so, please submit the adoption application found at this link: https://nmdr.org/our-dogs/adopt/ if you have already submitted an application- Within 72 hours of receipt of your application, an Adoptions Team member will respond to you via EMAIL with instructions on next steps in the application process.

We do not allow shipping or transportation.
