My story

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

✨ Meet Astro! ✨
Astro is a 1-year-old male Schnauzer mix with a big personality packed into a small body! This playful, high-energy boy is full of life, love, and the kind of silly antics that make everyone smile.

Astro loves to run, play, and show off his acrobatics, but don’t let his energetic side fool you—he’s also a total cuddlebug who’s perfectly happy curling up on the couch for snuggles and kisses 💋. People instantly fall for his young spirit and snuggly nature, and it’s easy to see why!

He’s housebroken, crate trained, and already knows his basic manners, including “sit” and “come.” Astro is very social and does great with other dogs of all sizes, and he currently lives successfully with small dogs, medium/large dogs, and a cat (though he’d love to play!). He’s also comfortable with men and women, making him a wonderful fit for many homes.

Astro’s foster says the hardest part of saying goodbye will be missing his cuddles and kisses—he truly bonds with his people and gives love freely.

If you’re looking for a fun-loving, affectionate companion who can keep up on adventures and happily relax by your side, Astro might be your perfect match! 🐾💙

The adoption fee for Astro is $400. This donation helps to cover veterinary expenses including spay/neuter, microchip and vaccinations. Wish Upon a Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit, foster based animal rescue. If you would like to meet Astro please complete our adoption questionnaire at www.wishuponarescue.org/adopt. We will review your responses and be in contact to schedule a meet and greet at a time and place convenient for your family and our team member.
