NJSRN is a group-run rescue and rehoming service for Miniature Schnauzers and Schnauzer mixes. Our first rescue was placed in 1997. More than 10 years and nearly 1,600 dogs later, NJSRN is still going strong! We are approved by the American Miniature Schnauzer Club, and adhere to the AMSC's Code of Ethics for Rescue Groups. Why do we do it? For the dogs!

The first step in our process is submission of a complete adoption application, which must include references. After that, we will answer questions about specific dogs that are available through our rescue program. Applications will be verified and all references checked before an adoption is approved. A home visit may be required. All dogs are given a veterinary exam, spayed/neutered, brought up-to-date on vaccinations, treated for worms and internal parasites and -- if necessary -- receive a dental cleaning (including any needed extractions), bloodwork, and urinalysis to detect urinary tract infections and/or bladder stones. An adoption application and donation are required.
