Q. & A. with Mariya
Why did you start breeding?
It started with my first Mini Schnauzer Ada, I got her when I was 17, i brought her home without my parents approval and the rest was history! She was everything i needed, an amazing friend, gave the best cuddles, was smart and so loving. She was gentle and fantastic with kids! A true definition of a perfect dog and knew that every family should experience the love of a mini schnauzer.What makes your program special?
Our schnauzers are my full time job, they get all the attention they need and more. Other than amazing health and temperament, puppies begin 1 on 1 training at about 5 weeks old, they receive Early neurological stimulation, 24/7 support with you puppy once you pick them up . Each puppy goes home with a health guarantee!What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include parti, liver, and salt and pepper. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Mariya was amazing from the moment I inquired about her available puppies. She sent me videos right away and was in great communication the whole time. She even coordinated a pick up time and location that saved us a longer trip and gave us more time to enjoy our newest addition. Our little girl has been amazing and so well trained from day one. The whole experience with Mariya was a great one!
