color, etc. Everything that makes a Schnauzer look like a Schnauzer, consistently.
Dogs with many champions in the background are those lines that have been taken to the shows, set before judges and judged on how closely that dog comes to adhering to the "standard" for that breed. Showing is for breeding stock to see that they are worthy to pass on their genes to future generations. Also, the more champions in a pedigree means that the line can be traced SHOULD a problem ever crop up and that dog or dogs can be eliminated from a breeding program.
EAR CROPPING We will not crop any ears on any of our puppies. This is left up to your discretion as the new owner. Personally, we do not believe that a schnauzer's ears need to be cropped unless they are going to be shown. However, many new owners like "the look" of the cropped ears, so to each his own. If you elect to crop your puppy's ears, please find a vet in your area that is knowledgeable with ear cropping. Not all vets know how to do this procedure, so finding one that does is essential.
A LITTLE MORE ABOUT US AND OUR PUPPIES
Our dogs are bred for health, conformation, and temperament. All pups are raised with great love and care. Our dogs live in our home as beloved family members. Every puppy is a Champion in our eyes, however, not all will be bound for the show ring. These puppies are available to approved homes as beautiful, well bred "Champion" companions.
All of our puppies are very special to us. It is for this reason that we want to make sure each puppy is placed in just the "right" home. If you are interested in a puppy please contact me via Email with any questions and do submit the Puppy Questionnaire which is the next step in the placement process.
Please be aware that I have a high demand for my pups, therefore the waiting time for a puppy can be up to 4 months or longer depending on the sex/color you are looking for. Male/Male or Male/Female are the best combinations. If you already have a Schnauzer or are considering two pups, please keep this in mind.
I always keep my puppy buyers posted on the progress of their pups from early on. You can look forward to receiving digital photos of the litter your puppy will be from usually when pups are 2 weeks of age after their eyes are opened, and about every two to four weeks thereafter. My puppies are handled often and with much love. As soon as they begin to walk, they are picked up by as many family members as possible. They have lots of opportunity to play. You can rest assure these pups are very well socialized and will make a wonderful new family member!
