More than 600 animals have been rescued by the PAWSibilities Humane Society of Greater Akron since the beginning of July. Among the most recent rescues are 56 purebred miniature Schnauzers.

The dogs were raised by a breeder who no longer could care for them. Instead of selling the animals, the breeder decided to surrender the Schnauzers to the humane society in order to find a proper home.

While some of the dogs are available for adoption, officials said "others need additional medical care before they are ready for their forever homes."

"Although we are so very full right now, we knew we had to help these Miniature Schnauzers embark on their new lives," said president and CEO Diane Johnson in a news release. "We are relying on the community members to open their hearts and homes over the next few weeks for these Schnauzers and all the other animals currently in our care. Please consider adopting or donating to help us in this lifesaving work of caring for these rescued animals."

(PAWSibilities®, Humane Society of Greater Akron) PAWSibilities®, Humane Society of Greater Akron (PHSGA) has rescued over 600 animals since the beginning of July. Among the most recent rescues are 56 purebred Miniature Schnauzers, raised by a breeder who became unable to continue caring for them. Rather than sell these full-bred dogs, he chose to surrender them to the PAWSibilities, Humane Society of Greater Akron to ensure that they receive proper care and are placed in loving homes.

These hypoallergenic dogs range in age from one year to fourteen years are a variety of colors, including white, black, salt and pepper as well as black and silver. Some Schnauzers are available for adoption today, while others need additional medical care before they are ready for their forever homes. Each Schnauzers' adoption fee includes one free seminar on socialization by a certified trainer. Prior to adoption each dog will be spayed or neutered, fully vaccinated, de-flead, de-wormed and microchipped as well as behaviorally accessed to ensure the best placement in their forever homes. At this time, PHSGA is looking for big-hearted adopters with low traffic, adult only homes willing to invest the time and understanding into these shy "diamonds in the ruff".

President/CEO Diane Johnson says, "Although we are so very full right now, we knew we had to help these Miniature Schnauzers embark on their new lives. We are relying on the community members to open their hearts and homes over the next few weeks for these Schnauzers and all the other animals currently in our care. Please consider adopting or donating to help us in this lifesaving work of caring for these rescued animals."
