Welcome to The Little Schnauzery

We are an Arizona Schnauzer Rescue foster home with two parents, three kids, a schnauzer and most of the time a foster dog. Read about the rescued dogs and our experiences with them in this blog.
Please consider adopting or fostering a rescued schnauzer.

Mila

Mila was our first female schnauzer from AZ rescue. The kids were so excited to finally have a cute little girl schnauzer! She came to us a bit shaggy, but we could tell she had great coloring.

Mila had a great personality. She was always so excited to see us and be with us. She would do her "Mila happy dance" every time I came home from work. She was the first one there when I came in the door, doing her body-wiggle.
She was in good health and in good shape and was house broken and did well at nighttime. Her coat was shiny and very silver/gray once we got her cleaned up and trimmed down.

The only downside was that she was a bit "bossy" and liked to bark too much. She liked kids and people, but was very weary of other dogs. We worked with Mila quite a bit on her excessive barking and made good progress.

Mila was adopted by a great couple who fell in love with her right away (and vise-versa). I missed this one for a while after she left. I had grown attached to her "welcome home" dance and cuddling. We later saw her at the schnauzer picnic and she did her dance for each of us! We love it when we see our old foster dogs and they recognized us.


A bit random, but here I am trimming Obi's nails. We use a Dremmel. He doesn't like it.
