Sergio made the experience of getting a puppy for the first time very smooth and simple. He took great care of my puppy before I received him. It has been a few weeks now and my sweet dog is the love of my life! He is so kind, gentle, and loving. I could not imagine my life without him. Thanks Sergio for bringing such a wonderful companion into my life!

Sergio is absolutely amazing! He answered any and all questions I had about what to do when bringing your puppy home, so I felt very prepared when we picked up our Luigi boy! Gave me a timeline on when final vaccines need to happen, told me what food to buy and how often he needs to eat and he came with a cute little sock monkey with mom and dad scent on it. 10/10 will recommend to anyone whose looking for a sweet schnauzer! Thank you Sergio!!!

We recently brought home our beautiful Mini Schnauzer, Blu, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience! From the very beginning, working with Sergio was an absolute pleasure. He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and caring, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Sergio went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and informed every step of the way. He provided updates, answered all our questions, and truly showed how much he cares about his puppies and their well-being. The moment we met Blu, we knew he was the perfect addition to our family. He was well socialized, healthy, and had such a sweet personality, which is a testament to the love and care Sergio puts into raising his pups

We welcomed Professor into our family on June 1st. Ever since, he’s been such a loving, sweet, playful and loyal dog. He’s always cuddly around us especially our toddler and he is very nice around other dogs and humans. I love how he’s hypoallergenic and a chill dog overall. Working with Sergio was so easy from beginning to the end. He was kind , trust worthy and very knowledgeable of the miniature schnauzer breed. My family and I couldn’t be any happier with welcoming Professor into our lives! He’s the perfect dog.
