    I found my sweet girl and new family member Calie, now Cutie Pie from Stephanie at Fran’s Schnauzers. After I found Stephanie on good dog she reached out to me and did a face-time to let me see the puppies and the different personalities. I fell in love with Calie. Stephanie kept me up to date with her growth with pictures and text. She made the process super easy and still helps me after I brought her home with any questions or concerns. She asked if I wanted to rename and started calling her my name to get her ready for her forever home. Stephanie’s love for her furry babies makes her the #1 best person you could have on your side. I would totally recommend Stephanie if you are looking for a mini schnauzer or just a really good dog that will totally love you with all its heart.

    Stephanie was very responsive and clearly cares for not only every pup but the lovely parents of each litter. I wavered for a couple of weeks because I wasn’t sure if a pup so small would be a good fit with my 14 year old standard. Stephanie has been doing this for many years and patiently answered all my questions including driving to meet me halfway and having video chats. I have told anyone who asks about the process and steps we took to contact Stephanie. If we decide to add to our family, I will be contacting her first!

    From the beginning to the cute, sweet puppy end, the adoption process with Fran's Miniature schnauzers and Stephanie, was amazing! Our puppy, originally named Ozzy, now named Oakley, is perfect. He's very healthy and energetic. We love him so much. Stephanie was so helpful and we even had a video call with our puppy. The Good Dog app gave me such a sense of security too. I highly recommend Stephanie and Good Dog!

    by far, this was a wonderful experience for my husband, and I we received a healthy beautiful puppy that we love and adore. Stephanie was the perfect breeder for us everything she told us was exactly true hands down the mother and the father of the puppy overall were healthy everything was a great experience, everything she told us what’s accurate I enjoy doing business with Steph. I would recommend anyone to her and if I’m ever in need of another miniature schnauzer, I know where to look I’ve had my PUP almost a year. She’s growing and thriving and still so very healthy. Great deal thanks Miss Steph. 🙌

    The experience was excellent. Stephanie was quick to respond and complete the transaction. Contracts included a first right of buy back if I decided to sell or give up my puppy. She cares about the puppies she sells. Training was done appropriate for the age and I had no problem with crating her from day one. Initial vaccinations and health checks were done. I fully recommended this breeder.

    Am very pleased with the process of obtaining my new fur baby. Stephanie made it so easy and answered my questions quickly. Mia is so much fun and she is so loving. She got to go to work with me during few 2 weeks, my boss says she can come anytime lol. I would recommend Stephanie to anyone who is looking for a fur baby. One of the things I loved was we did "FaceTime" so we got to see her play. That was great. Also Stephanie made the delivery a breeze she met me closer to my home. I was in love the second she handed me Mia thank you Stephanie for everything.
