Indy - Schnauzer mix

Meet Indy! Somehow, this little guy ended up at animal control and was never claimed. We just don’t understand how that happens. He is the cutest, happiest, friendliest little fella. He loves playing with the other dogs in his new foster home. He appears to be housebroken. We’re not exactly sure what his breed mix is but he does not shed. He weighs about 12 pounds and is full grown.
We will be learning more about him in the days to come. He still needs to be neutered, but should be ready to go to his forever home soon.
