Valley of the Sun Giant Schnauzer Rescue began in 2002 with a group of people who connected via the Internet and with the encouragement of the local Miniature Schnauzer Group. Our little group expanded as more Giant Schnauzer owners became involved and gave of their time. We are all interested in educating people about Giant Schnauzers and saving as many Giants as we can. Our dogs are vet checked, micro chipped and fostered to discover their habits. Then we look for suitable homes to match each individual dog. We are very proud of our group, and we volunteer our time out of love of the breed. VSGSR was incorporated in December 2003 and achieved 501(c)(3) status in April of 2004. Many local rescue groups helped us with the information we needed to put together our paperwork. VSGSR networks nationwide with other Giant Schnauzer Rescues. We also partner with Maricopa County Animal Care and Control as a New Hope partner. Fundraising efforts include: annual Giant Schnauzer Fun Day, Pets911 events, Ebay auctions and other sales of our artists’ work, and private donations. Our Mission is to rescue Giant Schnauzers in need, provide medical care when necessary, and find foster care placements where these dogs can begin the process of finding a forever home. Ultimately, we hope to find permanent homes that are best suited to each dog where they may live out their lives in a happy, healthy and loving environment. We also help other schnauzers who are in need. We recently have had drive by drop off rescues at Deer Creek Animal Hospital. People have just walked in and left schnauzers there that need help. We will also educate the public about the Giant Schnauzer breed, the need to spay and neuter dogs and cats, and the proper care, training, and diet for the breed.
Please fill out our Adoption application form after you fill it out online, click the submit button and it will come to us directly. After we receive the application and discuss it among our group, we will make an appointment to do a home check to make certain the environment is suitable for keeping a Giant Schnauzer or one of our other schnauzers. Following that, we determine if we have a dog that suits your life style. We do a thirty-day foster contract before finalizing the adoption to make absolutely certain this is the best home for the Giant and the best Giant for you. Our adoption fees range from $150 for older Giants or Giants with medical problems to $500 for younger giants. Prices for smaller schnauzers and schnauzer mixes range from $150 to $250 depending on the age and health. All of our dogs are vet checked, all shots are current, each dog is spayed or neutered as necessary, a full panel blood test is done and any problems that are uncovered are treated if at all possible, and each dog is micro chipped. Because each intake is vetted, i.e., a full blood panel run, which includes tests for heart worm, tick fever, they are spayed/neutered, groomed, etc., our adoption fee rarely covers the costs associated therewith, so our fundraisers and donations help to cover our costs. We are all volunteers, and 100% of the adoption fee, donations, etc. goes towards our rescues.
