Meet the breeder

I'm Yini S., the breeder behind Love Giver Schnauzers located in Lake Placid, FL. Our passion for animals led us to breeding top-quality Schnauzers. We have dedicated over 10 years to producing top-quality puppies, focusing on temperaments and health without sacrificing their quality of care while they are here with us. Their happiness and care is a huge part of our breeding.

Q. & A. with Yini

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I met so many dog breeds while I was working at PetSmart, and it was amazing. One dog stood out! The Giant Schnauzer! BUT, I was not ready for a large breed breeding program. We already had a bit of experience breeding the Bull Terriers, but I decided on the Mini Schnauzers and it was true love from there.
  • What makes your program special?

    We have focused our breeding program on health and temperament without sacrificing the quality of care we put into our adults. Making sure our breeding dogs are healthy, happy and safe is a huge part of our breeding program. We only breed schnauzers that are accepted by the AKC. All puppies are AKC registered. That being said, we do not produce Merles as the AKC does not accept them.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include wheaten, white, parti, liver, salt and pepper, black and silver, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Yini and her husband were wonderful, so responsive and knowledgeable about the breed. You can tell they really care about their dogs. They went out of their way to hand deliver this little bundle of joy. They were very professional. I'm so glad I found Yini through Good Dog, and I couldn't be happier with how little Molly!
