I'm Jennifer S., the breeder behind Blessed A Bit Kennels located in Ranburne, AL. Our Schnauzer’s are in home raised around children and other pets. We socialize our babies from day one. Potty training starts at 4-5 weeks which helps for easy transition going home. We take great pride in our small program. We strive to only breed healthy, well socialized, beautiful babies ♥️.
Q. & A. with Jennifer
Why did you start breeding?
My dad was best friends with our local vet. I from the age of 9 would go and see birthing from all kinds of animals. My dream was to always raise dogs.
What makes your program special?
We are small and in home. All of our dogs are raised with children and other animals. We have a very active outdoor lifestyle which gives our dogs daily socialization in all situations.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include parti and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
