Arnold “Schnauzer” – The Comeback Kid

Arnold came into rescue starving, matted, and weighing just 11 pounds.

That Arnold has left the building.

Apparently nobody warned us that once you feed a Schnauzer, grow back his fabulous coat, and restore his confidence, you get a Schnauzer.

Arnold is now healthy, handsome, housetrained, crate trained, great with other dogs, and extremely accomplished in the cuddling department. He gives excellent kisses, loves a lap, and is perfectly happy being adored.

And he fully expects to be adored.

Because underneath that magnificent beard is a smart, opinionated little character with a delightfully naughty streak. Arnold appreciates rules—as long as they're consistently enforced and don't interfere too much with his personal agenda.

His ideal person understands the Schnauzer mind: lots of love, clear boundaries, and a healthy sense of humor. Give Arnold too much executive authority and he'll happily promote himself to Head of Household.

A quiet home with a fenced yard in a peaceful neighborhood would suit him beautifully. He'd like somewhere to patrol, people to supervise, and a comfortable lap available when his shift ends.

Arnold has already staged one spectacular comeback. Now he's looking for someone who appreciates a dog with brains, beard, charm, and just enough mischief to keep things interesting.

Love him. Lead him. Do not let him unionize.

And Arnold's thoughts on his future?

“I’ll be back… preferably before dinner.”
