My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Peyton - 7 year old male purebred Miniature Schnauzer. Peyton was rescued from an LA county shelter where he came in as a stray. He had a microchip but it wasn't registered. He spent almost a month at the shelter because of a long hold by his owner and then another hold for a rescue which did not pick him up. Peyton came in very matted and dirty we got him cleaned up and found this handsome boy under the mess. We had a dental done on Peyton and 5 teeth had to be extracted. We found after we had him for a bit that he has what's called Obsessive Complusive Disorder (ODC)... he will pace in circles when stressed or anxious. This has precluded him from finding a home. We know if you keep him busy or focused on other things like with a kong he will forget about being anxious. Exercise also helps. Other than this "quirk" he's a nice boy who is eager to please and needs a home to call his own. Peyton is approximately 16 pounds.
