Aristos Miniature Schnauzers
Meet the breeder

Q. & A. with Patti
Why did you start breeding?
Aristos Miniature Schnauzers started with my second Miniature Schnauzer, Duncan. Duncan was brought into our family to fill the huge void left by the loss of my very first Miniature Schnauzer, Mr Gatsby. We eventually adopted Duncan's sister, Alexis, as well and that began the story of how Aristos was founded.What makes your program special?
Our dogs are characterized with lovely salt and pepper banded coats with hard, level top-lines, the hallmark of the Aristos Miniature Schnauzer. But pretty creatures are not all, our dogs are also smart, athletic and love their humans, they will provide a relationship of a lifetime!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
