About Cookie

Meet Cookie! This charming gentleman is gradually learning to trust humans. He opens up quickly with our staff and shows potential for forming strong bonds. Cookie thrives with a patient housemate who can earn his trust over time. Though he enjoys affection, a slow approach is essential for him. Cookie may do better in a home without children and will likely need a few visits to feel comfortable before going home. It's important to note that the Schnauzers in our care have likely had limited human interaction, so they are still learning how to trust people. We’re dedicated to helping them create positive associations with touch, and we hope the right home will continue this work. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
