Q. & A. with Ingrid
Why did you start breeding?
Our love for Miniature Schnauzers began with our first one, Pepper — loyal, smart, and full of personality. We instantly fell in love with the breed and wanted to share that joy with others. What started as a family passion grew into Black Star Farm, where we raise healthy, well-socialized Schnauzers with heart, purpose, and homegrown care.What makes your program special?
At Black Star Farm, our dogs are part of our family — never in kennels. Each puppy is raised in our home and socialized daily with our children. We believe in natural living and mindful nutrition, feeding a balanced mix of raw and premium natural foods to promote vibrant health and happy temperaments. We even craft our own dog shampoo and nourishing skin oils to keep every coat healthy and soft.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include parti, black and silver, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?

Michael K.
Verified owner · Jan. 2026
Ingrid was responsive and easy to communicate with. The puppy, a miniature schnauzer 4 1/2 months old and 7 lbs when I got him. He is now going on 6 months old and weighs 10 lbs. He is a fantastic puppy. Several things I noticed was that they appeared to have not had much touching with the puppy so he would not get attached to them. When I got him we had a 7 hour drive from Texas to Missouri. He cuddled in my lap the whole time and we bonded. He was also potty pad trained which helped, but it was only a couple of weeks before he was trained to go outdoors. I had a VET appointment to get rabies and some other shots and the doctor said he was in great health. Overall my interface with Ingrid was excellent, I had many questions and she answered them, she also provided food, snacks, toys, collar, etc with him. The food she fed him was high quality. I HIGHLY recommend Ingrid and Black Star Farm for their puppies. Black Star Farms is a great breeder for puppies.
