Why did you start breeding?
We bought our first Miniature Schnauzer about 9 years ago and we were hooked! We find them to be the perfect family pet.
What makes your program special?
Our puppies are all born and raised in our home so from day one they are exposed to our children and all the noises that go on in a household.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

We found our perfect puppies through Samuel, and they’ve brought so much joy into our lives. Autumn and Pumpkin are both well and happy, thriving in their new home and filling our days with love and laughter. Samuel was incredibly attentive throughout the entire process—sending us videos every time we asked and making us feel truly involved every step of the way. We’re so grateful to him for helping us find these two wonderful companions.

I had such a wonderful experience getting my puppy from Samuel! He made the entire process so smooth and stress-free through the Good Dog website. He was always responsive and kind, and he happily provided videos and pictures whenever I asked so I could see Rowan (Dracula’s) progress. You can tell he truly cares about his dogs and the families they go to. I couldn’t be happier with my new pup and the experience overall — highly recommend Samuel to anyone looking for a responsible, caring breeder!

We are absolutely in love with our newest addition from Little River Miniature Schnauzers! We really enjoyed working with Samuel! He was super responsive and sent us updates as our puppy grew. The process was super smooth from selecting our puppy to the application and then to purchasing and pick up. Samuel was super flexible with our pick up and accommodated a last minute schedule change and then traffic. I felt like our monetary exchanges were safe and protected through Good Dog. I highly recommend working with Samuel to find your next puppy!

Samuel was very responsive and knowledgeable about Schnauzers that it made the process effortless for me to adopt a dog. He cared so much about the puppy that made it easy for the puppy to get to his new home safely and good health condition. “Good Dog” made the process easier because it becomes a safety net for any client who wants the adoption process to be done in a professional manner. Paying was done securely and efficiently without major hassles in the transaction process. I was more than please with Samuel and Good Dog in helping me get my new member added to my family.
