About Schnitzel

Schnitzel, born around 7/28/2026, is a lively 7-pound mixed breed puppy with enough energy to light up a room. He's a mini tornado of enthusiasm, showcasing his acrobatic skills with furniture and leaving a trail of chaos in his wake. Always on the move, Schnitzel prefers to zoom through life rather than walk, treating floors like mere suggestions to be ignored. This little bundle of joy adores everyone he meets, both humans and dogs alike. He fits right in with dogs of any size, often acting like the CEO of the house, issuing orders with confidence. When larger dogs gently remind him he's not the boss, he swiftly adjusts his attitude, proving he can take a lesson in humility. When he's finally worn out, Schnitzel transforms into a cuddly companion, ready for some quality snuggle time. He's making strides with house and crate training, but as a young pup, he needs a family prepared to help refine his manners. If you're on the hunt for a tiny sidekick with a huge personality and a knack for mischief, Schnitzel is ready to bring his unique flair to your home. His minimum adoption fee is $350, plus an additional $15 for rabies registration if you're a McLean County resident. He has already been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is up to date on flea and heartworm preventatives. Your new best friend is just one click away.
