Willow's Story

Willow is a 5 year old, 8 lb, parti-colored Schnauzer mix who came into rescue because she wasn’t enthralled with the toddler in her home. We have found nothing but sweetness with this little princess. Everyone she meets – her foster home, on her walks, at the vet – they are totally enamored with her! She loves to snuggle and play with her toys. She likes her foster "brother", but another dog in the home isn't necessary, as long as she has some playtime with others.<br/><br/>Willow has some medical issues that needed to be addressed when she came into rescue. She has a condition where her liver doesn’t function as well as it should. But after extensive tests, her Vet determined that it doesn’t affect her life or her delightful personality. She will need periodic bloodwork and is on special low-protein food. She also has a sensitive tummy, but this seems to be controlled if her food regiment is adhered to.<br/><br/>We are (ideally) looking for a home with a fenced yard and/or someone that works remotely because Willow needs to go potty frequently, but she would also do fine with a midday walk/er. But she LOVES her walks and greets humans and dogs with enthusiasm!<br/><br/>If you have any questions, please contact Deb at schnauzerescue@yahoo.com<br/><br/><br/>Prior to placement, all dogs are spayed/neutered, brought up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm tested, dewormed, and microchipped. Dogs also receive a dental cleaning, if needed, and are bathed/groomed before adoption.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting this dog, you must first complete our adoption application, which is available on our website at www.njsrn.org (click on the Adopt tab). Please be sure to include the dog’s name in the questions/comments section of the application. Answers to questions about NJSRN, our process for matching dogs to their permanent homes, and our guidelines for adoption donations can also be found on our website. Sorry, no shipping, but NJSRN can help with local area transport throughout most of the northeast. If you have questions that are not answered on our website after you have submitted an adoption application, please contact the NJSRN champion listed above.<br/><br/>NJSRN covers NJ, PA, NY, CT, MD, DE, and surrounding states, and we will help any Miniature Schnauzer in need, regardless of age or health status. We are all volunteers and NJSRN always needs foster homes, transport assistance, and donations. If you would like to contribute to our rescue program, you can easily make a tax-deductible donation through PayPal at www.njsrn.org. Or, if you prefer, you can mail a check (made payable to NJSRN) to: New Jersey Schnauzer Rescue Network Inc., PO Box 36, Fanwood, NJ 07023.

New Jersey Schnauzer Rescue Network Inc's Adoption Policy
Please visit our website (www.njsrn.org) to learn about our rescue program, adoption process, and required donations. Our adoption application is available on-line under the “Adopt” tab. <u>Please read and follow the tips for completing that form.</u> It is the first step in the adoption process, and we use the information in that form to match dogs to their new homes. As you complete the application, we encourage you to be honest and thorough in your responses - there are no "right" or "wrong" answers to the questions we ask, and an accurate and complete application helps us with the matching process. After you submit your application, you will see one of two messages. One message will let you know that there is a problem with the application (likely a missing response to a required field). The other message is an automated acknowledgement confirming that your application was submitted to NJSRN. When we receive your application, we will share it with our members and add your name to our waiting list. Although we're a small volunteer organization, NJSRN works hard to identify the best homes for the dogs in our care. Please note that we’re experiencing a shortage of Miniature Schnauzers all across the country and we typically have more applications than available dogs. You will likely be placed on a waiting list until an appropriate match is available. Please be patient – the wait is definitely worth it! We rarely get puppies or very young dogs in our rescue program. If you understand the commitment required when adopting a puppy - house-training, crate-training, obedience training, socialization, teaching appropriate chewing, etc. - and you are interested in adopting only a puppy, we can refer you to a reputable Miniature Schnauzer breeder.
