Q. & A. with Victoria
Why did you start breeding?
I wanted to do my best to maintain the unique characteristics of the breed while placing an emphasis on producing Giant Schnauzers of superior health, temperament, and conformation. If you are looking for the perfect furry companion or show prospect, look no further!
What makes your program special?
I am a proud breeder of Giant Schanuzers and am so excited to share my love of them with the world. My heavy involvement in the show world speaks to the standards that I breed my dogs by. I do not breed my dogs unless they are fully healthy both physically and genetically. I am dedicated to always having responsible breeding policies when it comes to breeding, socializing, and training my pups. I love what I do and truly want the very best for my puppies and their forever families.
