Story

Meet Heidi, a sweet 21 lb. Mini Schnauzer who's looking for her forever home. She's super chill, loves hanging out with her humans, and gets along great with other calm dogs. Heidi is the momma of the pack at heart, always ready for cuddles or a nap on the couch or her dog bed. She is crate trained and sleeps peacefully through the night, but if you want her beside you in bed, she'll be more than happy with that too! She is leash-trained and enjoys short walks and is also potty-trained. She will wait by the door and speak until you let her out. Heidi's an affectionate girl who would be a great fit for anyone looking for a sassy but loving companion. You'll always have someone to talk to with her as she is a good listener and sometimes talks back too! lol. She lights up the room with her excitement and I know would be great in any home where she is spoiled. She was a former breeding dog, and her coat was in rough condition because of a poor diet and lack of proper nutrition. Her puppies took a lot of nutrients from her during pregnancy, but unfortunately, her breeder didn’t provide the care she needed to recover. As a result, she developed a bacterial skin infection and inflammation, which required two shots. Thankfully, she has been improving well, with noticeable progress in her hair growth and skin health. Heidi has been up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and was spayed. During her spay she also had a dental procedure, ears examined. She has been cleared by our vet to find her forever home. Her adoption fee is $2,500. It covers her spay (she was in heat at time of spay), microchip (lifetime registration), vaccinations, dental procedure, and extra anesthesia/iv fluid time. The extra care and training we have personally done since the time she has been with us until she finds her forever home. We have a transport leaving for NorCal/Oregon March 28, 2025, and would love to include her for the right home. We're located in Hesperia, CA. but can arrange transportation anywhere in the U.S. if needed so long as the adopter covers the cost. Email us today and share details about yourself, the loving home you can provide, and your experience with the breed. We will be in contact shortly. Thank you!

Story

Meet Mira! Mira is a 2-year-old purebred Miniature Schnauzer who is officially ready for adoption! She has been spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccinations. During her vetting, she also received a full dental cleaning to ensure she’s as healthy as possible before finding her forever home. Mira’s story could have taken a very different path. Instead of ending up in a loving home, she was on the verge of being placed into another breeder’s program, destined for a life of repeated litters. But thankfully, someone stepped in and connected her breeder with us instead. Because of that, Mira now has the chance to just be a dog❤️🐾 to play, to explore, and most importantly, to be loved for who she is, not for what she can produce. Mira is a confident, affectionate, and playful little dog with just the right amount of sass. She loves being with her people and will happily follow you around the house, always curious about what you’re doing. She has a fun, spunky side and enjoys zooming around the yard, but she settles down nicely and is always ready for cuddles. She is house-trained, crate-trained, and walks well on a leash. She gets along with dogs of all sizes and has a friendly, adaptable personality. Whether she’s trotting by your side on a walk or curling up next to you after a long day, she’s happy just being with her people. Mira’s adoption fee is $2,000, which includes her spay (she was in heat), her dental procedure, and the time, care, and training we have personally provided to ensure she is ready for her new home. If you think Mira is the perfect addition to your family, we’d love to hear from you! We have a transport leaving for NorCal/Oregon on March 28 and would love to include her on the trip for the right home❤️ We offer out-of-state adoptions and can arrange transportation to your location, provided that the transport expenses are covered. Get in touch with us today and share details about yourself, the loving home you can provide, and your experience with the breed. We will be in contact with you shortly. Thank you!

Story

❗ Current Location: South Korea❗ • Personality: She's sociable and energetic. She adapts to new places right away and loves to reach out to new people and friends she meets. She knows how to say hello to familiar people and friends. She loves to play with other dogs and loves to play with people. She picks up on new training quickly, so we think she would make a great dog for a family with a good understanding and training knowledge of dogs. She's a bit of a sneaky prankster right now, so she can get into trouble, but she's affectionate, gentle, and full of energy. • Affinity with: -Cats: She currently lives with cats in a temporary foster home. She is not aggressive with cats but is very interested in them, so if you have a cat that likes dogs, she would be fine. -Dogs: She is currently living with the dogs in her foster home without any issues. They play well with each other, are socialized, and warm up quickly to new dogs they meet. -Adults/Kids: She is very fond of people and loves to be petted. She warms up quickly to people she meets for the first time. • Shedding: Moderate. There is shedding in certain periods. Her fur is best brushed daily with a silicone brush. • Walking Manner: She loves to go for walks, both familiar and new, and prefers to take fast, wide, territorial walks (rather than slow, sniffing the trails). He also loves to run in the park, but will sometimes try to run outside if there is no fence. She is fast and has a lot of energy, so she loves to run around in large parks and meet people and dogs. She also loves to go for walks in the mountains, but she has a hunting instinct and is interested in small snakes, rodents, and birds. • Housetrained: She goes potty on pee pads and highly prefers to go outside. She can chew on wood or plastic furniture and grab small items fallen on the floor and play with them. She's very playful and will run around with you if you have a like-minded friend in the house. • Separation Anxiety: She's always been around other dogs, so we can't confirm, but we think she'll be fine on her own. • Bark or Howl: She barks briefly when she hears strangers outside. There is no howl • Carsickness: She had drooling at first, but now she rides well.

Relinquished by his owner as the last of the litter they were unable to 'get rid of' . . . He is very sociable with other dogs and humans. Healthy, playful and well adjusted. He's a delight to watch interact with other small dogs his size. Please do NOT call to ask if this puppy is available for adoption. If this listing is still posted then we are still accepting applications. Please read the narrative in it's entirety. Please note our adoption procedures are explained in GREAT DETAIL BELOW. READ, READ, READ. Thank You. . . . . The best match will be selected and contacted to confirm an appointment at Petsmart in Yorba Linda on Saturday between noon and 3 pm or on a mutually agreeable day, time and place. We do not do out-of-state adoptions for puppies and we cannot hold puppies; please submit your application when you are ready to adopt. If you are interested in meeting any Poochmatch dog, please visit our website to complete an adoption application. It is in the ADOPTION folder at the top of our home page. Just fill in the blanks and SEND. The adoption fees cover the mandatory and non-negotiable spay/neuter, rabies, microchip, microchip registration, core vaccinations including rabies and 4 sets of distemper/parvo and deworming. Adoption fees vary based on age, breed, size and the costs incurred on the dog's behalf. Puppies are not house-trained although they may have begun crate-training and/or potty pad training in their foster home, depending on their age. House-training is a process that will need to be completed by their adopter. Puppies, if left unsupervised and not redirected will develop negative behaviors such as using the restroom in the wrong place, chewing, barking, whining, etc. Please be sure to do research on raising a puppy and be sure that you are prepared to do so.

Story

Meet Peter! Peter is a small, white Mini Schnauzer mix with a lot of personality packed into his little frame. Rescued from the shelter just in time, Peter has been given a second chance at life, and now we’re looking for his perfect forever home. Peter’s ideal adopter is an experienced dog owner who understands that some dogs need a little extra care and patience. Peter has shown some bite tendencies, and while we’re working with a trainer to understand his triggers, it’s important to be mindful of his boundaries. He doesn’t like being picked up and prefers not to be pet unless he comes to you first. When he feels safe and comfortable, Peter can be snuggly and affectionate—but it’s always on his terms. He is good with other dogs, so a canine companion could be a great fit for him. However, because of his biting history, Peter should not be in a home with children. Peter isn’t just a dog—he’s a work in progress who needs someone willing to invest time, patience, and love into helping him thrive. In the right home, Peter’s personality will shine, and he’ll reward you with loyalty and companionship. If you’re the experienced, patient adopter Peter needs, please fill out an application on our website. Peter is waiting for someone to see the good dog he truly is and help him live his best life.
