Arrival Story:
Mom had been searching for a playmate for Finnegan. Seeing that he is 10 years younger than Georgie, she thought getting a pup that matched his energy levels would be a good idea. So...another schnauzer, of course! She saw an ad to rehome Winston, got in contact with the owner and they came to visit for several hours. Then we made arrangements for a weekend together to see how it would work out. Winston immediately became his new dad's best friend, and he never left after he came to "try out" as a family member.
Bio:
Winston was owned by a very nice young woman in NYC. He has had quite the big city upbringing - prancing down the streets of Manhattan and Central Park. He is also quite the little traveler by airplane. His original owner moved back to San Francisco to work and wasn't going to be able to care for him due to long work hours. He came to visit for a few days and instantly became a wonderful addition to our family. He loves his big backyard, especially running with his new pack. He & Finnegan love to go on walks together. Winston has a very charming & funny personality, good manners, runs like the wind, and is very smart. Winston loves playing ball nonstop! He makes us laugh a lot and we feel very lucky to have found him.

What they do:
The most important thing the K-9 Team does is adopt military dog teams, just like Angels adopt service members through the regular adoption process. That means sending a letter a week and at least one care package a month. The difference is, the care packages are for both the dog and the handler. For example, a package can include a chew toy and treats, or even hygiene items like shampoo or clippers, plus the regular snacks and goodies for a service member.
The K-9 Team also works as a group to raise funds for major canine equipment purchases such as cooling mats/vests, doggles (goggles for dogs), and booties, and develops relationships with local pet shops to get discounts or conduct item fundraisers.

Love our military K9s! Winston

Mom just received a new sherpa carrier for me!!! I immediately jumped in and stayed for over an hour. I can jump in the top, or go in through the end. Mom says she can tell I've traveled before. Maybe now I'll get to meet that woman everyone calls Granny who they say lives on the east coast!!! We'll see....
