My story

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

Hi!! my name is Peluzza - :) I am 12 months old female Border Terrier Miniature Schnauzer blend.
I have reached my growth and I am about 15 to 18 pounds.

I have cute wired hair and kind of soft as well. I don't need grooming; I look pretty the way I am.

I love kids, other dogs and cats:) I love to play tag-of-war, and give you lots of kisses - I am a very happy puppy. I am Leashed trained and loves to go for walks.

I behave very well when I ride in the car and I am crate trained:) and I am not a barker.

Don't wait more and take me home:)

As with all rescued fur kids; she is going to need basic training, love reinforcement; as you know they all come from a tough beginning on their lives and the art of adopting a rescued creature is to bring them to be the best they can be with love and patience.

Their donation adoption fee includes being spayed/neutered, DHLPP core vaccines, dewormed, and a free health checkup through a local participating vet clinic.
