I am a super cute, lovable 8-month-old Schnauzer mix pup (approx. DOB 6/1/25). I might be small, but I have a story of huge resilience. I was rescued from a backyard breeder in Pinellas County. When I was first saved, I couldn't walk at all, but I’ve worked so hard, and I am now a happy, zooming puppy who loves life! My Personality I am incredibly sweet and affectionate. Now that I’ve learned how to walk, I love to explore! I am playful, eager to be loved, and just want to be with my people. My Medical Journey I do have some ongoing neurological problems with my back, but that doesn’t slow my spirit down! My wonderful rescue is working hard to raise funds for a specialized neurologist consult to find out our best options for my care. I am looking for a special adopter who can help me continue my journey to becoming as strong as possible. My Ideal Home Other Dogs:  Yes, I get along great with other dogs! Cats:  I don’t mind them at all. Kids:  Because I’m still a puppy and a little "mouthy" when I get excited, I am recommended for a home with mature children. If you are looking for a lovable, brave little companion and are willing to manage my neurological needs, I am ready to be your best friend. Pretzel's adoption fee is $500 - obedience training is required after adoption and fully enclosed front or backyard is also required.

Story
PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! Hi… I’m **Moe** 🐾 I’m a 10-year-old Terrier, and yes — I’m blind. But you might not even notice! I’ve gotten pretty good at learning my surroundings, and once I know the “lay of the land,” I move around with confidence. My foster says I surprise everyone with how quickly I figure things out. I’m a sweet, loving, laid-back little guy who just wants to be near my human. That’s really my favorite thing — companionship. I enjoy gentle play, I get along with big and small dogs, and I’m friendly with kids too. I’m submissive, kind, and have a calm confidence about me. I may be a senior, but I still have a playful spark! I’m potty trained, but since I’m a blind senior, I do best when I’m let outside regularly on a schedule. Belly bands can also help if needed. I just need someone patient and understanding — I promise I’m worth it. My dream home would be calm and cozy. A small family (1–3 people) would be perfect, especially if someone is home most of the time — maybe you work from home or you’re retired? I’d really love that. I’d also enjoy having a small, gentle dog sibling to keep me company. A fenced backyard would make things easier for me to safely explore and do my business. I may not see the world with my eyes, but I feel it with my heart. And I have so much love left to give. If you’re looking for a loyal little companion who just wants to be by your side, I’m your guy. 💛 Adoption FEE: $150 which includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccines.
