Q. & A. with Kristi
Why did you start breeding?
My mother has been breeding Miniature Schnauzers for over 20 years, so my life has always been very intertwined with this breed. Our Miniature Schnauzers come from this line. We fell in love with Boykins as well, and we have dedicated so much of our lives to these wonderful breeds!
What makes your program special?
At Buckeye Schnauzer’s we produce excellent companions. We understand the importance of dog health, temperament, and structure, and every breeding decision is made accordingly. We are also constantly improving our breeding program and work closely within the breeds' communities to do so.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and silver and salt and pepper. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
