About Schnookie

Schnookie is a 2 1/2-year-old Saint Bernard and Border Collie mix, built extra cuddly and full of heart. This black and cream girl is surprisingly good with dogs, cats, and children, but she can be a bit timid when meeting men. At night, she settles best if crated and shouldn't be left alone outside. Schnookie hasn’t quite mastered house training yet, but she makes up for it with her gentle, loving nature. She's already spayed and vaccinated, and her adoption also includes five training classes to help her adjust. Schnookie is waiting in Agua Dulce, CA for a family to bring her home. Make their next chapter their best one yet.
