About Henry

Meet Henry! Henry is a young schnauzer mix with a thoughtful personality and moderate energy. He tends to be a bit shy, especially when meeting new people or in unfamiliar places, so he needs a patient home where he can take his time to feel safe and build trust. This intelligent fella is housetrained and already knows several commands, including sit and lay down. He walks nicely on a leash, showing he enjoys learning and structure. Henry does well with dogs and may benefit from having a confident canine companion to help him feel more secure. However, he does enjoy chasing cats, so a cat-free home would be best. Since he hasn’t been around children, a calm and gentle atmosphere will be ideal for building his confidence. With the right guidance and time, Henry is sure to form a strong bond with his person.
