Q. & A. with Christie
Why did you start breeding?
About 25 years ago, I fell in love with a back talking, roo rooing, salt and pepper boy!!! Sammy, Sam I Am, was my heart!! None went home with her!! My sister had a sweet salt and pepper girl, and the rest was history. I have loved, raised and occasionally shown Mini Schnauzers for 25 years.What makes your program special?
All puppies are part of my family, raised to be an excellent companion for you and your family. They are always welcome back, should the need arise.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include salt and pepper, black and silver, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
