About Tia

Meet Tia, a charming 16-pound Miniature Schnauzer born on February 1, 2022. As a retired breeder, she’s ready to explore the joys of life in a loving home. Tia is shy and may take some time to warm up, so she’ll need a patient family that understands her timid nature and can help boost her confidence. Once she feels secure, Tia shows her gentle personality, making her an ideal companion for a calm household. Because of her shyness, we recommend a home without small children. She’s looking for a peaceful space where she can settle in at her own pace, enjoying the love and attention she deserves. Tia is currently seeking a sponsor to assist with her ongoing care while awaiting her forever family. Every bit helps, and sponsorship makes a significant impact on our mission. If you’re ready to support Tia or adopt her, please fill out an application. Only approved applicants will be contacted. Please note that we do not adopt outside of Florida. Let’s find this sweet girl her forever home!
