I'm Heidi D., the breeder behind Bay Creek Schnauzers located in Pleasant Hill, IL. We offer top-quality puppies that are raised in our home with our family. They are very loved and socialized. We raise adorable, affectionate, versatile puppies, and give them the best possible start for a life of companionship and love!
Q. & A. with Heidi
Why did you start breeding?
We got into breeding after we had our first two girls and decided we wanted our sons to have the experience of having litters of puppies. We have never looked back!
What makes your program special?
We only breed high-quality dogs and they are very socialized with our boys and other dogs. We take great pride in our breeding program and look forward to connecting you with your next pup.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, salt and pepper, and black and silver. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
