Story
Abbot is a sweet 13-year-old Miniature Schnauzer with a big heart and an even bigger personality! His owner recently died and the home that he was inherited to is not one that will give him the happy and calm life he deserves as children are not his favorite.He may be an old man, but he still has a playful side and loves to have a little fun. He's affectionate, loves attention, and definitely isn't shy about making his voice heard!Abbot is happiest around adults and is looking for a home without children where he can relax and have snuggles, and enjoy his golden years. He's in pretty good health for his age though would do best in a house with a yard rather than needing to be walked for long distances.We're hoping to find someone who will appreciate his big personality, embrace his old-man quirks, and give this sweet boy the happy retirement he deserves!

Story
He requires a lot of attention, he’s very smart. I’ve taught him some tricks. He’s good with the right trainer to teach him to be good with other dogs. I prefer him to be the only dog in home, previous owner told me that he was good with all other pets.
