As Ernie comes up to his 1st adoptaversary we thought you’d love to hear he’s doing brilliantly. His diabetes is controlled, his life is rich and active with Mat, Millie and his siblings Ava and Haf.

Ernie’s medication costs are covered by the charity, this is the difference your support makes 🧡

Hugo the black and silver miniature schnauzer is sat down facing the camera.  He is on the left. 

On the right of the picture is Lyra, a stunningly beautiful black miniature schnauzer. Lyra is wearing her signature purple harness and a funky neckerchief; gorgeous and stylish.

Guys, guys, guys, you’ll NEVER guess who I bumped into today on a @schnauzerfest.bsky.social walk! The one, the only, LYRA and @zosoz.bsky.social!!
That was after I said hi to @barlows.bsky.social Bea and her baby bro Higgins! 🧡

Bertie’s doing well with Clare, he’s happy, affectionate and enjoying living with other dogs. His family were sure he would 🧡

Bertie has lymphoma. Schnauzerfest committed to ensuring he’ll want for nothing and is supporting all costs. Thank you for keeping us in a position we can do this.

Last year you helped Lowri have life changing cataract surgery. Her family want you to know she’s doing great,

‘Lowri enjoyed her first walk off-lead walk on the beach & smashed it, behaving impeccably. She’s such a character, helps lift Jane’s spirits when treatment is giving her a tough time.’

A little update on Carlo 🧡 He is doing ok following his eye removal last week. He’s walking in the garden, getting used to things, the painkillers are working and yesterday’s vet check went well. He’s being well looked after by his sister Molly. Thank you for helping this sweet boy and his family.

The stories behind dogs coming into rescue are not always known. When they are, sometimes they reveal a turn - or turns - of events which nobody could foresee when a puppy is bought.

Please read Bertie’s story, he joins the #Schnauzerfest family tomorrow

CARLO’s had a haircut to help him be as comfy as possible while he recovers from surgery which happens tomorrow. While it’s sad he will lose his eye, we know he’ll be better without it and feel much better. Please join us in sending him and Isobel lots of love, it will be an anxious time 🧡 🧡🧡

We recently moved house, she’s named her after the lovely man, Robin, who filled the house with love for many years. Secondly I associate robins with holly, a dedication to the memory of the little puppy who gave me so much joy for 17 years, and inspired me on this incredible journey of adopting’

Rachelle,
‘I lost my first mini schnauzer Holly in December. I brought her home on Friday 27th February 2009; it feels like all the stars aligned to have brought Robyn home 17 years later to the exact date and day. Robyn's birthday is also the day after Holly's.

Why I named her Robyn...

Brenda has been snuggling her and playing with her, chasing around the garden and house like lunatics at times!’

Brenda was adopted last year by Rachelle and has been flourishing. Robyn’s other adoptive sister, Ivy is more reserved and taking time to suss her out.

A beautiful story behind the recent adoption of Robyn, one of the young pups cared for by Dogs Friends Rescue fosterer Clare,

‘Robyn (Clover) has been having the time of her life. She is confident, brave, incredibly sweet, and playful. We are so thrilled to have her.

A photo of 2 miniature schnauzers stood on heathland in the New Forest this morning. Both are side on, facing the camera. On the left is a black and silver miniature schnauzer and on the right a black miniature schnauzer. 

There was fabulous schnauzering this morning, great sniffs, running and adventures. A perfect walk.
