Q. & A. with Adam
Why did you start breeding?
I Obtained my first Standard Schnauzer in 2007, and began to compete in AKC confirmation shows soon afterwards. Thus began my Journey into the world of purebred dogs. After many years of competition, and having the opportunity to learn and grow under the guidance of many cherished friends and mentors. I Decided to follow in there footsteps, and help steward the breed into the future.What makes your program special?
At Highbrow My goal is to produce the best examples of the breed I can. For both myself, and individuals or family’s looking to bring a Standard Schnauzer into their homes. Producing quality animals with excellent health , good structure and sound temperatures . Is my number one goal. There is nothing more rewarding then placing a puppy into the home of a well informed family or individual , and watching them grow and develop together. Taking home one of my puppies makes you a part of the Highbrow family. Like all good breeders. I make myself available to answer questions or concerns, and offer advice for the life of you dog.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

Standard Schnauzer
About Cordelia
Cordelia is my first home bread champion. She exemplifies all that I love about this breed. Smart, funny eager to please. She loves to be with her people. Rather curled up beside me on the couch or out exploring the world. Cordelia doesn’t care what we do just as long as she gets to be a part of it.
