Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Apply here at: http://welcomehomedogrescue.org/adoption/application-to-adopt-a-companion/
Tolstoy is an adorable 14 pound miniature schnauzer. He was born April 7, 2014 and is 9 months old. Tolstoy is good with dogs and kids. He needs an active individual or family who is willing to exercise, train and groom this beautiful boy. Tolstoy was surrendered by his owner, who was unable to keep a dog in their apartment. He is very friendly, playful and incredibly sweet. He is potty trained, although not 100%, as he is still learning. His foster mom takes him to a weekly basic obedience class, and we recommend that he continue training. He is playful and inquisitive and still very much a puppy!
Miniature Schnauzers are low-shedding dogs that need regular grooming. They are highly intelligent and easy to train. The ideal guard dog, they have a fearless streak and will bark when they sense a threat. Miniature Schnauzers are not prone to random or excessive noise. They are high energy dogs who need regular exercise and activity, but they will reward you with about 15 years of unconditional love and loyalty.
Tolstoy's non-refundable adoption fee is $300. All dogs are fully vetted, microchipped, spayed or neutered and up to date with vaccinations. He is currently in a foster family with other dogs in La Habra. The application is the first step before we can schedule a meet and greet.
Our adoption process looks like this:
1. Adoption application review by WHDR board
2. Adoption application approval
3. Meet and greet
4. Home safety check
5. Final approval and adoption finalized
Our volunteers, donors and adopters mean the world to us! Without you, we couldn't do what we do - saving the lives of abused, neglected and abandoned dogs and providing them with a loving forever home.
