Isley (Cleveland, TX)

        

Meet Isley, a charming 10-year-old, 20-pound salt-and-pepper Miniature Schnauzer who just arrived at SRT and is ready to steal your heart! Isley’s journey hasn’t been easy—he came from a backyard breeder and sadly missed out on the love and care every Miniature Schnauzer deserves. When he was surrendered, he was covered in mats and had severe dental issues, with many of his teeth falling out. But don’t worry—Isley is now the proud owner of five strong teeth and is eating just fine! Thanks to some loving medical care, including medication for a mouth infection and a recent neutering, Isley is on the road to recovery. What’s truly amazing is his sweet and gentle spirit—despite years without grooming, he was incredibly patient during his grooming session. He’s also a calm and quiet car rider, content in his crate, and gets along well with other dogs.  Isley has never met a stranger and loves to be with family. He will happily take all the attention. He prefers being on his two back legs but we redirect him to keep four paws on the floor.  He is very chill, but 100% schnauzer. While the neighbor dogs bark at the fence line but Isley does not join. However, he does use his voice when in the kennel, but settles down quickly.  He really is just a chill dude and wants to spend every second with his family, regardless of who is available. If you think you could be the special person to open your heart to Isley, be sure to ask for him when you complete your application under the Adopt tab. Let’s help Isley find the peaceful, loving life he’s been waiting for! Adoption fee $200

PS:  Who knew there was a handsome salt & pepper schnauzer under all those mats!
