Quill is a 4-year-old, 21-pound Schnauzer with a shy nature and a warm, hopeful heart. He's the most cheerful of the three brothers who were found dumped together-matted, scared, and abandoned... but despite his past, Quill's happy little spirit still shines through.
Quill is good with both people and other dogs, and he especially enjoys hanging out with female dogs. He loves cuddles, kisses, and gentle companionship, but he does best when other dogs around him aren't playing rough, as that makes him uncomfortable.
Because Quill is still building confidence, he will need a patient adopter who can give him time to settle in and feel safe. He's currently afraid of crossing doorways and may hesitate with anything that changes texture (like transitioning from carpet to tile, stepping over thresholds, or climbing down from furniture). With reassurance and consistency, he can absolutely continue to improve.
Crate trained - sleeps great in his crate
Mostly house trained yet - will need help learning a routine
Quill is going to thrive in a calm home with loving people who understand that trust takes time-but once he bonds with you, you'll have the sweetest little shadow.
