Sid’s a Schnauzer who’s looking for a loving home

Story, photo by Pam D’Addio

BOCA RATON – Sid here.  I’m a Schnauzer, a 7-year-old male weighing about 15 pounds.

I’m here, but I’m not sure how I landed here. And I’m not real happy to be homeless, but I’m still hopeful to find a loving family. I know there’s someone out there for me.

Let me tell you about myself.  I’m a cute, nice little dog who’s very shy and intimidated in this bustling shelter.  I seem to need a home with adults only, due to my fears, but I do get along with other nice, small dogs.

I’m housebroken.  I’ll be a great companion for a retired person who can shower me with attention in a calm and loving home.  Got a lap for me?

I’m available for adoption at Tri-County Humane Society, a no-kill animal shelter located at 21287 Boca Rio Road in Boca Raton.  The shelter is open for adoptions Tuesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.  Adoption fees are $110 and up.  Animals are heartworm-tested and up-to-date on vaccinations.

Included in the adoption fee is one year of free office visits to Regency Veterinary Clinic.
