Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Fancy! Fancy, or better known as Fancy Pants in her foster home is a very sweet, happy, and playful miniature schnauzer. She is 17 pounds and somewhere between three and six years old. Fancy came to us from a puppy mill, and raised five puppies in our care. She was a wonderful mom and a very playful girl. She doesn’t take well to strangers coming up to her on a leash, but she does walk very well on a leash. Fancy will use a pee pad if left alone for a long period, but she is potty trained and will even ring the bell to ask to go outside! Fancy had complete bloodwork, a couple of different times, as well as dental cleaning, she did not lose any teeth due to periodontal disease! She also had chest X-rays because she has a heart murmur. Her heart is slightly enlarged and she is currently on medication and doing excellent.
Interested in becoming a forever home for Fancy? Fill out our online adoption application: http://www.friendswithfourpaws.org/adoption-form.html This is the first step in our process, and we don't go any further without an application.
Find more adoptable pets, news and information on Instagram @friendswithfourpaws or our Facebook page Friends with Four Paws .
We put a lot of time and energy into processing our adoptions to find our babies the best fit home for them and you. Please do not submit an application if you are not serious about adopting Fancy.
We are so excited to work with you to find you a new forever friend, and Fancy the perfect forever home, and appreciate you working with us.
For immediate consideration, please attach your application to the initial inquiry to help us expedite the process.
Our adoption fee is $525. This includes their spay/neuter surgery, full (age appropriate) vaccinations, microchip insertion and registration, deworming, heartworm testing and prevention, flea and tick prevention and travel expenses.
All of our dogs are rescued from local shelters and the general public. Each dog is then placed in a foster home where he/she is kept for quarantine, to ensure if the dog gets sick it can receive proper treatment. We have foster homes in the NJ/NY area waiting to receive their fosters. Once an animal has received an application or there's an adopter interested, we make arrangements for transport. If a dog is already in foster care in NYC/NJ, an adopter will be put in touch with the foster home AFTER an application is being processed.
Thank you in advance for your patience with our process and for making adoption YOUR option!
