Alex-adopted

Whats a Schnauzer to do? As of September 2006, Alex (much more handsome than his photo's reveal) is approx. 11 years of age. He and his playmate, Chip, are being surrendered by their owners because their owners do not have time to spend with them. Alex is not at the shelter but in a foster home in Arkansas.

This is what his owners said about him. Alex is very sweet and is housebroken. He does have a calcium deposit (lump) on his neck, however, the vet says it is nothing to worry about. Alex has been fully vetted throughout his life and is used to being groomed. The owners say he does well with their 2 and 5 year old grandchildren, however, they are not sure what he would do if a child pulled on his legs, tail, or ears. They watch their grandchildren around the dogs. Alex is Heartworm negative and is on HW preventative and has been frontlined.

****THIS IS A COURTESY LISTING FOR AN OVER CROWDED SHELTER IN ARKANSAS!! All dogs will be tested for Heartworm prior to adoption. Almost Home Rescue will process your adoption. Applications can be found at www.almosthomerescue.net and can be e-mailed to Lonepine_AHR@yahoo for this particular dog.

These animals are in dire need of homes. If you cannot provide a home, sponsors are welcome and needed for heartworm treatment and/or other medical expenses for dogs coming to New England. Foster families are also needed from time to time. Fostering a healthy dog or one that is in treatment will also save lives!

We pay a Transportation Service from Arkansas to bring the dogs to New England. The adoption fee is $250.00 for altered dogs. $350. for unaltered puppies, with $100 refundable after spay/neuter. All Senior dogs 6 years or older have a reduced adoption fee of $200. (includes vaccinations, spay/neuter and transport from AR) For more information, please visit our webpage at www.almosthomerescue.net
