Who We Are
Save A Schnauzer
Miniature Schnauzer Rescue of Houston, Inc. (MSRH), is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization sponsored entirely by donations. We are dedicated to the never-ending, sometimes overwhelming, task of saving the lives of abused, abandoned, and/or unwanted Miniature Schnauzers who have lost their homes through no fault of their own.
We do not operate a shelter. Most of our dogs reside in loving foster homes, until they find their perfect forever home. Others spend time in a veterinary clinic for treatment, if needed, and a few may be kept in boarding where they can get training due to social issues. Many of our dogs come to us healthy. Others are sick or injured. They may come to us from shelters, from the streets, from puppy mills or from owners who cannot, or will not, care for them any longer. In almost all cases, at least in their recent past, they have not felt the security of a loving home.
Our goal is to ensure these fine dogs get healthy, never again face life in a dangerous situation, and instead live in a safe, loving, and secure home for the rest of their lives. Since February 2000, we have orchestrated over 3,000 adoptions.
If you are interested in any of our Schnauzers that are ready for adoption, please complete an Adoption Application, and an Adoption Counselor will be in touch with you.
Featured Pet
"Astro Jetson"
Have you ever wanted a Miniature Schnauzer big enough to jump in your truck, run with you, and take up your whole lap? Pick me! I'm a rough and tumble, 6-year-old, 26-pound boy. I don't need a back yard, but I want someone to run with me, play with me, and then let me sleep on their lap when we are done.
I'm a good walker but a little rough around the edges, so I'm looking for a house without little kids. I prefer guys mostly, but I'll say hi to the ladies once in a while. So, what do you think? Can I follow you around and be your buddy?
I'm good staying in my crate when you're not around, but like most of us, I have one fault. I get too excited and bark my head off in the car, so please bring a crate to take me home in.
Adoptable Dogs
ADOPTION COUNSELORS NEEDED
Would you enjoy working with our rescues and potential adopters? This volunteer will be speaking with potential adopters and learning what type of Schnauzer they are looking to adopt. This person will also be making phone calls to veterinarians for references and if needed, schedule a Home Visit to a potential adopter that has not previously had dogs. You can also help determine what type of dog will fit their lifestyle best and set up a meeting with the dog and the potential adopter. If you have the time and like meeting new people, we would love to have you join us.
If you are interested, please email Sandra@msrh.org or call (281) 336-1163 and leave a message.
