Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Mickey is striking. He is a sweet, handsome schnauzer boy, with a rare white and black parti coloring. Mickey was rescued originally from a hoarder. After doing well with children in his foster home, he was adopted. Unfortunately, he was never able to bond with the family's 10 year old, so we need to find him a new forever home. He bonds well to women, and would likely do best in a home with just adults, including at least one woman. A single woman who is retired or works at home may be the perfect match for Mickey since he likes to be around his owner. Mickey is house trained, leash trained, and likes to snuggle. He gets along well with dogs and cats. He is missing most of his teeth, but eats and takes treats just fine.
Mickey weighs 16 lbs, is parti in color and 8 years young. Mickey is currently being fostered by Marcy and family in Mansfield, OH. Mickey's adoption fee is $199. Not all our dogs are totally house trained at the time of adoption. We crate train them or potty pad train and work on potty skills. When your application is approved, you will speak with the foster Mom and can get more information about how far along the foster dog is in potty and social skills. Dogs learn quickly, and most are pretty far along or trained by the time of adoption. However, you should always expect some adjustment when moving a dog to a new home. Adopters must be prepared to continue training and socialization after adoption.
Mickey has been examined by our vet, has had a 5/1 annual shot, a rabies shot and tag, has been dewormed, heartworm tested and passed, and has been spayed or neutered before adoption. Our rescues are on flea/tick and heartworm monthly preventatives in season. We also do a dental if our vet deems it necessary (his teeth were cleaned), which is included in our adoption fee. Our adoption fee covers all vetting expenses, and a small donation to cover the dogs' food and care.
You will receive a lifetime prepaid microchip registration, and a 60-day limited trial for pet insurance from a third party. We send your new dog home with a copy of all vet paperwork, adoption papers, a small bag of the dog food they have been eating, and information on taking care of the dog. Also included is a health folder for your vet, and notes from our foster mom on the dog's schedule, habits and socialization skills. We also have a Facebook page for our adopters, and we have a volunteer who can answer questions on training your new pet.
Please note: Some of our dogs need a fenced in yard, and this is specified where required. If you do not have a fenced in yard, we require that you purchase an exercise pen so the dog can be safe when outside. These are available online for less than $60, and you must bring proof of purchase to your adoption appointment. Most of our dogs are small, and cannot be tied out.
We adopt our rescue dogs to adopters in Ohio and some other states within driving distance of the foster family. We do NOT ship our dogs--the adoptive parents must meet the dog at the foster's home. This will give the adoptive family a chance to meet the dog before they adopt. Our dogs are fostered in NE Ohio and surrounding areas. Please make sure you are willing to drive to pick up the dog within 2 weeks of being approved, and check the distance to the foster home per the location above.
Please visit our website www.ronsrescuedrascals.org to learn more about our adoption procedures and policies. From there you can also submit an adoption application, meet our volunteers and benefit from the 9+ years of rescue experience of our all-volunteer, non-profit rescue!
