Katreryna could not have been a better person to work with to obtain a Miniature Schnauzer. Communication before and after picking up our puppy was excellent: thorough and helpful! She gave us a wonderful care package with health and lineage records, a starter kit for kibble and treats, dewormer, the next dose of tick, flea, etc. medicine, dog toys, and some small towels with scent of her parents and litter mates. I would rate here as top-notch for breeding puppies. She had a wonderful yard for the puppies to explore and become acquainted with the 'larger world'. I could not recommend her more highly.
