CoCo, Adopted!

My name is Mr. CoCo. I am a handsome 6-year-old AKC-registered male Miniature Schnauzer, looking for my forever home. My foster mom describes me as a very nice boy! I have certificates verifying no problems with my heart and knees. I am completely vetted, being up to date on shots, heart worm tests (negative), neutered, a good blood work-up, and microchipped. I had a dental cleaning in October 2023. I am very energetic, so I would require either a fenced yard or active people to take me on daily walks. I get along with non-dominant dogs. I am crate trained and doing very well with house training. I will be very devoted to a new owner! I am smart and could benefit from obedience training or agility training. My adoption fee is $450.00. Please call Mary at (574) 524-6040 and leave a message.

Chloe – Adopted!

Hello, my name is Chloe — which is a feminine name of Greek origin, meaning “blooming” — and I would love to be picked by you to continue blooming in your family garden. I am 12 years old and have a terrier-mix bloodline. As you can see my large brown eyes are set off beautifully by my lovely golden-brown fur. I found myself at Second Chance Small Dog Rescue because my senior parents were no longer able to care for me. I like playing and socializing with other dogs and bigger humans so I would be better suited to a home without young children. I am up to date on my vaccinations, spayed, heartworm negative, and on prevention. I recently had a successful dental visit and some bloodwork done — the vet reported that all was good “for my age” — so I plan on being around for a long time. I weigh approx. 12 lbs. Are you interested in adopting Chloe? Her adoption fee is $100. Call her foster mom Mary at 574-524-6040 for more information between 9AM & 9PM.

Adopted! Betsie (Miniature Poodle)

Betsie is a 7-year old miniature poodle who found her forever home in August, 2022. For a puppy mill gal, she is amazingly friendly and especially likes children who are respectful with her. Betsie gets along with other dogs as well as her feline housemate. She is crate trained and doing well on house training. Betsie the fenced yard she needed and learned to walk on a leash after proper training. She is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations and heart worm negative.
