Meet the breeder

I'm Kristen H., the breeder behind EsKay Mini Schnauzers located in Scottsboro, AL. Raising puppies has been so much fun, although we take our role in raising them seriously. Breeding has helped us share the joy of our dogs with other families and individuals.

Q. & A. with Kristen

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My grandmother has had several litters, past and present. When I was young, I always loved going out to the kennels and playing with the dogs and their pups! I had wanted to do it before but never had a means until we moved into our house! So I decided to start in March 2022, when I purchased Winston!
  • What makes your program special?

    I am an experienced Miniature Schnauzer owner and am extremely hands on with my program. I have loved the breed since I was 4 years old and have had or been around the breed ever since!
  • 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.

Getting a puppy from Kristen

Kristen has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies.

Together, you’ll choose the puppy that’s right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.

Price

Puppy prices include a $200 non-refundable deposit and between $500 - $750 final payment, before taxes & fees.

“All puppies are CKC registered and have tails docked and dew claws removed. They come with a health booklet, food, and a toy. They will also have their first round of shots and first haircuts. Deposits are made to reserve a puppy for purchase, therefore making the puppy unavailable for other buyers. Cancellations do not receive a refund of the deposit.”

Contract & health guarantee

Kristen may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Kristen offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don’t hesitate to reach out to Kristen directly.
