Meet Melissa

• Breed: Minature Schnauzer
• Age: Young
• Gender: Female

Melissa, or commonly referred to as Missa, is a young parti colored Miniature Schnauzer full of spunk. She arrived as a nervous little girl in her foster home but quickly warned up to her favorite human, foster dad, as he is home all day. Not long after she has become playful with a resident dog or two. She is still working on her potty training and can spend a little time quietly in the kennel.

Melissa is still skittish like many rescue dogs and would rather follow you around than let you pick her up. She also is not fond of the grade school child in the home, even going out of her way to bark at him. Perhaps, she might come around to liking him. Otherwise she is a cuddle bug when she wants to, or terrorize toys or explore the house.

Melissa is spayed, healthy and up to date on vaccinations. She'd do great in a home with a playful small dog. She needs a securely fenced yard to keep her safe.

Additional Details

• Spayed
• Current on vaccinations
• Securely fenced yard is a firm requirement

My adoption donation is a minimum of $600. Funds go towards the high cost of care for our foster dogs.

Wag N' Train Terrier Rescue adopts nationally (the contiguous 48 states) if we can locate a volunteer willing to assist with a home visit. Approved adopters need to be prepared to travel to the Omaha area, we do not ship our foster dogs and we do not arrange transports.

Unless otherwise indicated, our foster dogs require a securely fenced yard. Invisible/underground fencing does not classify as "secure."

Our volunteers process applications that meet the MINIMUM criteria for a specific foster dog. If you do not meet the baseline requirements, we encourage you to continue to monitor our Facebook page and website for a foster dog who is a great fit for your lifestyle!

Please refer to the Additional Details section of the bio for specific information about the foster dog. We receive a high volume of applications and can only process applications that meet the criteria for that specific dog.
