I strive to produce top-quality Schnauzer puppies that are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive, and have wonderful temperaments.

I truly love my dogs and what I do.
Q. & A. with Kathy
Why did you start breeding?
This breed is my passion, and I love spending my life with them. I wanted to give back to the Miniature Schnauzer breed by producing healthy pups and placing them into loving homes. It is important to me that I am breeding versatile, well-rounded, and socialized pups for my buyers to welcome into their homes and hearts.
What makes your program special?
I truly love the Miniature Schnauzer breed and am dedicated to looking out for the breed as a whole. I know the health and status of every dog I have bred and am proud of the temperament and conformation of my puppies. I can provide extensive knowledge and guidance for any family looking to bring home one of these wonderful dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
