    ***** 5 Stars! We are thrilled to have brought home our beautiful Miniature Schnauzer puppy – Pepper, just last week. We could not have had a more positive experience than we had with Pepper’s breeder, Dinah, from DJS Delightful Miniature Schnauzers. Dinah is clearly an adoring, caring, breeder and her Schnauzers are well-loved, friendly, happy, and healthy family pets. I fell in love with the mama, “Patches” immediately. From my initial communication with Dinah, she was consistently available and communicative. Even before the puppies were born, Dinah started sharing pictures and providing updates on the health of the entire litter and continued on with that communication throughout the entire process. Dinah also took the time to ensure we understood where our puppies were as far as vaccinations, weight, and health needs and made sure to inform us of all steps we needed to take to ensure we were prepared for a successful puppy home-coming. Our new puppy came to us beautiful, healthy, and well socialized. If I ever have the opportunity to add another puppy to my home, Dinah will certainly be my first contact. What a great experience: I highly recommend DJS Delightful Miniature Schnauzers!

    Dinah was great! We hit it off with very first phone call. She kept in constant touch, often sending updates and pictures and videos. She sent me links to things. She said I would need to get for example a play pen, what bed, food that she feeds her dogs and puppies, what she uses for treats. It was and is a single transition. Since she was on vacation the whole month of November, she is actually bringing Vinnie to us tomorrow as she passes through on her way home. It has been a great experience and I know Dinah and I will be in constant touch.

    I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Dinah, the breeder behind DJS Delightful Miniature Schnauzers! From the moment I joined the waiting list for my miniature schnauzer puppy, Dinah was consistently available, responsive, and incredibly supportive. Throughout the entire process, she kept me updated with frequent pictures, videos, and messages about the puppies’ health, growth, and overall well-being. It meant so much to see how loved and well-cared-for the puppies were even before going to their new homes. The communication was outstanding, and I always felt reassured that my puppy was in the best hands. Now that my little schnauzer is home, I couldn’t be happier—healthy, happy, and beautifully socialized. I highly recommend DJS Delightful Miniature Schnauzers to anyone looking for a very knowledgeable, caring, loving and truly dedicated miniature schnauzer breeder!
