Q. & A. with Deborah Ann
Why did you start breeding?
I waited 21 years for my first Miniature Schnauzer and fell completely in love with the breed.... So much so that within 12 months I had purchased 5 babies!! Yes... I call them My Babies 😁 All of my Schnauzers are my babies and are a huge part of my family. They are never crated or left alone and unattended. They all have beds and their own blankets but they prefer to sleep in bed with me and I wouldn't have it any other way. I completely and instantly fell in love with this breed and all their amazing qualities, so I decided to breed so others can also enjoy and love them as I do.What makes your program special?
I'm not in this for the money or anything close to that... I want everyone to have the chance to witness and experience the love and joy that Miniature Schnauzers can bring into their life's.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include wheaten, white, parti, liver, black, and black and silver. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

This was our first time purchasing a puppy, and working with Deborah at Little Bug Schnauzers made the entire experience exceptional from start to finish. Deborah was incredibly responsive and kept us consistently updated with weekly photos and videos, which meant so much to us. The care and communication she provided truly set her apart. We would absolutely recommend Deborah to anyone looking to add a new furry addition to their family.

Deborah Ann is a wonderful individual to work with in adopting a fuzzie kid. She keep me so informed on my Izzabella until it was time to pick her up. Deborah sent a care package home with Izzabella that was fonominial. Izzabella is very smart, loving, and just about potty trained. When I am ready for my next mini schnauzer, I will be contacting her again.

I am so happy with my puppy that I got from Deborah! He is perfect! From the start Deborah was nothing but kind, knowledgeable and responsive. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or quality dog. I plan to get another puppy in the future and will 100% be going through Little Bug Schnauzers. If you are debating getting a schnauzer, look no further, you have found the best place!

Deborah was so responsive about our schnauzer, she sent pictures, and videos. She helped us so much, we learned so much about the breed. I am so happy and grateful of how easy and smooth the process was. Training our schnauzer was so easy, even my husband was surprised because she did not want to pee or poop in her crate, she would whine so much just to go out and poop. We're in Virginia and Deborah met us half way which was very nice of her to have traveled under 2 hrs.

+4Deborah Ann was so responsive. She sent a ton of pictures and she communicated very well. She asked the right questions and made sure everything was a smooth experience. I highly recommend little bug schnauzers. Neji, has been a complete angel. I’m afraid the only problem I have now is all the cuddles I’ve been receiving from him. My new companion is just perfect. Thank you Doborah Ann and family!
