Jasmine is a 4 year old schnauzer who has lived as a breeding girl.
She is a lovely little dog who loves the company of other dogs.
Although she isn't house trained we expect that she will learn how to live as a pet very quickly, especially with a well balanced dog to help her.

Jasmine has been with me just a few days and oh my goodness, this is one adorable little darling!
Initially very apprehensive, she has settled in very quickly, thanks to the example of my own dogs, and like so many Schnauzers, clearly identifies with her own breed! She is OK with the other dogs, just clearly more comforted by the Schnauzers.
She is a dear little dog, desperate to please and to be praised. Her tail never stops wagging if you give her attention, although she is very submissive, and will literally crawl on her belly towards me even when being praised, which is sad to see - but it doesn't stop her doing mischievous things like climbing on the table to "sort" the laundry!!
She is good with my cats, who have tested and approved her as safe - and they always make it very clear if a dog is not cat-friendly!
Many Tears correctly said she is not house-trained, but to be fair, she is good all day if taken out often enough and at night will use a puppy pad with 100% reliability, so it is no problem, and I'm sure she will learn fast. She has learned other things so fast, bless her.
Jasmine will make a wonderful friend for someone. She will certainly need a doggy companion, and ideally this would be another Schnauzer, and will need someone home most of the time.
She will still have a lot to learn about life, the universe and everything, and a new owner should be ready to enjoy helping her grow in experience and confidence, which will be so rewarding as this little dog is a real trier.
She is worried by noise and new things, so would do best in a home without small children.

Jasmine is doing really well! She has to be the easiest foster I have ever had, as all she wants to do is please, bless her!
She is a sweet, affectionate, adorable darling, totally happy with all my other dogs, and they with her, because she is so non-confrontational.
She will certainly need another small doggy friend in her new home, preferably of her own kind. She will cuddle up in a bed with one of the other Schnauzers for a snooze, and it is sweet to see.
She loves to run and play in my large and untidy garden, but comes immediately when called, tail wagging like mad!
Her house-training has progressed really well too: she is a real quick study and will make a really super companion for someone who is ready to give her lots of love - she is more than ready to give lots back!

Sammy Jo is a beautiful 6 year old schnauzer who has been kept as a breeding dog and is now looking for a fireplace to curl up in front of.
Sammy Jo loves her people but might need a little while to meet new people and settle in her new house.
Please only apply for her if you already have another dog at home that she can be friends with.
11-02-10 UPDATE
Sammy Jo has been with me now for just 4 days, and she is gradually settling in.
Initially very scared and frightened, she would shake with fear when I approached, and lie flat on the ground. She is now slowing coming forward for a fuss, and at times will wag her little stump – and this morning even barked a little in excitement at breakfast time!
She is good with the other dogs, just ignores the cats, and does her wees on a puppy pad at night, but manages to wait most times during the day until she is let out into the garden.
She so wants to be loved, but is still a very scared and timid little girl, but with time and patience she will blossom into a really gorgeous little friend.
She will need a quiet and patient home, with another gentle and confident dog for her to be friends with.

Cardamom is a 5 year old mini schnauzer ex breeding bitch. She is just so sweet but has such a lost expression.
She is very over weight at the moment but we are very lucky to have expert foster care for her so we know she will soon look fitter and start to trust.
She really does not know anything at all at the moment about pet dog life.
04-03-10 UPDATE
Cardamon is settling in very well - thanks to all the other dogs (especially her best foster friend Sammy Jo), and is now relaxing in the home and even playing at times
She is just so sweet, and wags her little stump when she sees you. She is still a little frightened to come up to you, but will come forward and nudge my hand - and will come up behind the other dogs and put her paws on their back to say hello when they are having a fuss!
She is totally clean in the house during the day, and clean overnight (she sleeps in a puppy pen with another foster schnauzer)
She is good with all the other dogs and is great with the cats - just ignores them both
She has had a make over and looks gorgeous, but still does need to lose a little more weight!
She will need a home with another kind dog to be her friend, or could easily be homed with Sammy Jo as they are best mates. She will need a home without children as she would be too scared to cope with them
