I am an Standard Schnauzer rescued by Adopt A Rescued Friend group form the Harris County Animal Shelter.  While a volunteer was picking up another rescue at the shelter, she noticed me, sitting quietly at the back of the kennels. She came close to the cage and call me.  I came close and I licked her hand, because I am a puppy, and we like to give kisses, even at that place. She looked at me, and asked the man to take me outside. Maybe because I was just a baby, in a large body, no one has noticed how pretty I was. She did. She couldn't leave me behind, She didn't. We ran outside, I smelled the green grass, and we jumped in the car, and ran away. I was taken away, and I felt life was mine again. Now, I am living my happy life, very loved,  at my foster home. One day, you will see  my picture, read my story, and you will love me too, and make me a part of your family.

Puppies cannot be adopted outside of the Houston area until they are spay/neutered after they are 4 months old.

It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.
