Winston had great news on his leg today. He’s doing really well after the surgery, he can begin limited walking which is excellent news. His family are very grateful indeed that your support made it possible for him to have the surgery.
Thank you everyone 🧡

🧡 “It’s happening, I’m scared but excited - trying to be positive. He’s the love of my life so I’m sad he has to go through something so intensive, but if he can see again- imagine how happy he will be!” 🧡

Winston today had his cataract surgery and we know that we can all relate to these words.

Carlo today and Carlo a couple of years ago when he was first rescued from a rotten situation

This week he’ll see an ophthalmologist to assess whether anything that can be done for his eyes as there’s been a worsening recently

Thanks to your kindness we’re committed to supporting Carlo

The weather was far too miserable to take photos on my New Forest walk today, so instead here’s one from yesterday.

Just me. Flying. 🚀🦸🏻

Lovely afternoon for a #schnauzerfest walk! Bit muddy so there's a bath on the cards, but worth it. #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

Beautiful Polly’s thriving a few weeks on from surgery.

Lorraine,
‘She’s such a wee gem. I can't help thinking we - Cavaliers in Need - and Schnauzerfest probably saved her life. She was riddled with tumours and those teeth were horrendous. We have definitely added years to her life. Thank you 🧡’

👀 Back to this day in 2019 we posted this 😮

Over 41 walks had already been organised for October!

It is never too early to get your plans together to support Schnauzerfest this year with your walks 🙏

Did you do one of those 41?

Could you do it again this year?

We’d LOVE you to 🧡

The North Herts & Stevenage schnauzer group were out this morning raising funds and having a great walk.

We’d love you to make 2026 the year you organise a walk for the charity, it doesn’t have to be big at all, small walks are perfect 👌

YOU’RE the BEST

When we said that for the 1st time our income is falling from the previous year - at a time of rising vet bills and need this is not a trend we can ignore - we hesitated in asking for your support at this time. January is a tough month and you’re always so generous.

Schnauzerfest Grants go to rescues around the British Isles to help them pay vet bills for dogs in their care. Your support makes a life saving difference to many, thank you.

Susan is safe, adopted & loved because her rescue was there, this is your support in action🙏

If you read this week’s newsletter you’ll know the surprising news that you’re helping 2 Winston’s 🧡

It’s very unusual to get 2 requests in one day, let alone for dogs called Winston but that’s what happened.

This Winston, suddenly lost his eyesight.
