Schnauzer Dogs Available for Adoption in Jacksonville, Florida

Meet MAIYA

Do you have a sweet spot for seniors? Maybe you've been looking for a companion for yourself - or for a parent or grandparent - to give them a reason to embrace each day and feel needed.

Maiya is the sweetest little 15-year-old, 15-pound Mini Schnauzer who just adores being near you. This precious senior came to us when her owner passed. Although a little fluffy and in need of a dental (she's getting that on 4/19), she would love to spend her days doing whatever it is you're doing - as long as she gets to be with you.

And her ears... the way they flap when she hurries to be where you are - just the cutest.

She was housetrained at one time and still does her best to give you a minute to get her outside, but as with any aging senior, accidents can happen. If she has access to a potty pad, she will use that too.

Maiya co-exists with other dogs who respect her personal bubble. She will correct the young whipper-snappers if they try to get in her bed or take her food.

She's not asking for much - just a soft place, a gentle routine, and someone to love.

Seniors like Maiya don't need forever - they just need love for the time they have. And she will give it right back.

The schnauzer is a versatile and intelligent dog breed known for its distinctive beard and eyebrows. They come in three sizes - miniature, standard, and giant - each with their own unique personalities and characteristics. Schnauzers are loyal, playful, and make excellent family pets. They require regular grooming to maintain their wiry coat and love to be included in activities with their human companions. With proper training and socialization, schnauzers can thrive in various roles, from loving companion to skilled working dog.
