Gail H.

Breeder of Miniature Schnauzers

Meet the breeder

I'm Gail H., the breeder behind Gail Holzman's Miniature Schnauzers located in North Royalton, OH. I have been breeding Miniature Schnauzers for more than 30 years in my home concentrating on health and temperament. I am purposeful in everything that I do regarding my dogs, which includes careful selection of breeding dogs and proper health care. My goal is to produce healthy dogs with great temperaments that are exemplary representations of the breed. I look forward to connecting with you!

Q. & A. with Gail

Why did you start breeding?
I watched my cousin's two kids and their Schnauzer many years ago and decided I loved the breed. I did a lot of research on Miniature Schnauzers. I found a female Schnauzer puppy and when the time was right, I bred her to my cousin's dog. I kept a female and my breeding program began. My vet introduced me to another breeder and my knowledge and interest grew. She was a breeder, groomer, showed her dogs, and had several champions. Bloodlines and favorable characteristics became a priority and still are in my breeding program.
What makes your program special?
My puppies are raised in my home and get a lot of attention and love. They are vet checked and get their tails docked and dewclaws removed at 3-4 days old. I start a worming schedule at 2-3 weeks. At 6 weeks, they get another vet check and their first shots. Though our 17 grandchildren are growing up, you can always find puppies being held and getting special belly rubs. I do not inbreed and make sure my mother dogs are healthy by giving them prenatal vitamins throughout the pregnancy.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
