I’m Rigatoni, a charming female salt and pepper Miniature Schnauzer who is about five years old and weighs about fifteen pounds with natural ears and tail. I was rescued from the Pasadena Animal Shelter and as my temporary foster says, I was a “hot mess”. But thanks to Sally at Elevated Touch, I now look and feel fabulous. I’m a social butterfly who never meets a stranger. My loving nature shines through every wag of my tail. I’ve been showing off my good habits by using the doggie door taking care of business outside. I’m also comfortable in my kennel. I get along well with other dogs walking great on a leash. Unfortunately my vet visit revealed that I have heartworm disease and will need to go through treatment. I’m looking for a foster in the Houston area until my treatment is complete. I will fill your home with love, and with a little patience and care, I’ll make an incredible companion. Could you be the one to offer me the second chance I deserve? Click the Adopt tab, complete your application and ask for me, Rigatoni, as a pup of interest. My adoption fee is $300
