Meet the breeder
I'm Deborah Michelle B., the breeder behind Schnauzer Affinity located in Kannapolis, NC. I strive to produce the highest quality purebred schnauzers available for families to love and enjoy. I offer an excellent 5 year guarantee against congenital issues. I work with families to place the perfect baby for them who is 100% healthy and is the best fit for their family.
Q. & A. with Deborah Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
I have been involved, in some capacity, with breeding since I was a teenager. Once I was bitten and smitten by the Schnauzer bug it was inevitable that I'd want to share that love with others at some point. It has been an amazing experience. My forever families and I are always in touch and love to share.What makes your program special?
I do not breed to "sell" puppies. I work with families for months and often years prior to making a decision on placement. We are one big family and discuss everything from pre conception going forward. I work with the puppies from day one to assure they are physically, mentally and emotionally sound. I make sure I send home a healthy, happy, calm puppy ready to bond and start training right away.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include wheaten, white, 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.

My experience with Deborah Michelle was great. She's very knowledgeable & experienced with the breed. Also, very patient with me, being this was my first time doing this online. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. Our Keilei is exactly what we were looking for & couldn't be happier.

Ms. Deborah was so sweet and responsive. She answered every question I had. She provided the puppy with so much stuff on his first day home (bed, collar, toys and food) which made it easier for me. Only promise she had was to provide her pictures of the puppy over time which I have no issues doing!

We brought the miniature schnauzer home and she seemed very relaxed and so happy! Any time we interacted with the puppy she would wag her tail. She ate right away and was letting us know when she needed to potty(sniffing behavior). Very alert always engaging with her people. She has been the easiest miniature schnauzer to work with!

It was nice working with Michelle. Her communication was right on spot, I was receiving constant updates with videos and photos how my baby was growing. She is still available when I have some questions. My fur baby is just perfect, he is so smart and cute. He is pretty active also
