When I was married and had a lot of property, we had as many as 7 dogs (all Schnauzers) at one time. Yes, that was a bit much but we got it down to 4 and it made me extremely happy. When one would pass away, we would immediately get another because my grief was overwhelming. A new puppy made me feel happy again. When I moved to TV, I had 3 schnauzers, 2 passed away (they were both 16) and Sam and I were very lonely. I found Maggie Mae at a breeder's in FL and picked her up immediately. She was a dream come true, but she is a handful. She's a very busy girl and everything is a game for her. Love her and Sam to death. Yes, I'd get another in a sec. Just wish it could be a rescue but because of asthma, I can only be around non-shedding dogs.
Kathie, you could go to schnauzer rescue for your next dog if you only wanted that breed. Each breed has a rescue group in my experience.
