About Lorna

Lorna is a sweet and calm 12-year-old Schnauzer mix, weighing just under 10 lbs. She enjoys long naps and chewing on bones, making her a perfect companion for anyone seeking a gentle pet. This charming girl is both dog and cat friendly, plus she walks well on a leash and is trained for both outdoor and pee pad needs. After coming to us from a local shelter in dire condition, she has made a remarkable recovery. Lorna was diagnosed with IMHA, a condition impacting her red blood cells, so she'll need continued medication and regular blood work throughout her life. Her medications, which cost around $30 monthly, keep her stable and happy. She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. While Lorna enjoys the company of children, she is best suited for homes with kids aged 10 and up. If you’d like to offer Lorna a loving retirement home, please reach out. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
