My story

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

Contessas is a beautiful, sweet schnauzer terrier mix, who is about one years old. Her innocent puppyhood was interrupted by being abruptly surrendered to Saving Sage and was facing an unexpected pregnancy. We took her in as a foster pup despite her upcoming delivery and went through her pregnancy together. In November she delivered eight beautiful terrier puppies, and was an amazing mother to each them until they found their forever homes in January.

Since then, she has gotten back to her royal puppiness, but has found it difficult to get along with her new brother and other dogs. On walks, she gets very excited and anxious. When we get around other dogs and people, it is clear that she was not very well socialized as a puppy. Her bark is quite impressive and loud!

She is the queen of the show and makes her way for all the attention.

Contessa is obedient, affectionate and loving. She is very graceful, agile and energetic. She does not allow obstacles such as baby gates to get in her way.

What Contessa needs is a loving home with a fenced yard and no other pets or children in the home. She is a 34 lb couch potato and a lapdog.
