    They were wonderful to work with and even went out of their way to make sure I made the best choice of pup for our family. It was so hard to make a choice all the puppies were lovely and you can tell they were so well cared for! Our puppy Rogue has a perfect temperament for our family & toddler. She is so smart and is picking up potty training & crate training so well! Thank you again for our new baby! I would recommend to anyone looking for a pup.

    Theresa was great! She was prompt in her responses, she gave us all the information we needed, and was very easy to work with through the whole process. Our mini Schnauzer is the cutest and most playful puppy, our kids are over the moon!

    Theresa and her husband are both very responsive and accommodating. We really appreciated being able to see the puppies in person first. We could tell that they take great care of their dogs. Our puppy Moon is such a gorgeous adorable boy. He is a bundle of love and energy. He gets into mischief but is overall very good, cuddly, and loving. He is so well adjusted. He adopted very well and quickly in his new home and routine. I’m amazed by how patiently he let us cut his nails and clean his eyes. He was just relaxing the whole time. We love Moon so much, and highly recommend working with Theresa and her family to find your schnauzer.

    Theresa and her husband were amazing! From the beginning they were very responsive to all of my questions and FaceTimes me with our new baby Bleu Ivy so we can see her play. We met & they came with food and toys and it was obvious our Bleu came from a family who loves and took good care of her. We are grateful and in love our new family member.
