I'm Ana W., the breeder behind Silver Paw Ranch located in Sugar Land, TX. Welcome to Silver Paw Ranch! We’re proud to introduce AKC Miniature Schnauzers Sophia Rosie & Blackjack Frost. Our pets with champion bloodlines. At Silver Paw Ranch - Texas, our dogs are raised in a warm, loving home—not in outdoor kennels. We interact with them daily, ensuring they are well-socialized and part of our family.
We are excited to share that we have a new litter born on November 2, 2025!
Q. & A. with Ana
Why did you start breeding?
Our journey began when my husband shared how much he missed his beloved Schnauzer, Daisy. We soon brought home our first pup, Rosie—sadly, we lost her four days later. She was sick, and we later learned she came from a puppy mill. It was devastating, but eye-opening. A year later, we found our girl through family and gave her the middle name Rosie in memory of the one we lost. I’ve grown to love this breed—they're smart, loyal, and full of personality. I believe everyone should experience the joy of owning one of these wonderful dogs.
What makes your program special?
Our goal is simple: raise happy, healthy, and well-loved Miniature Schnauzers in a family environment. Our puppies are raised in our home, surrounded by love, laughter, and the everyday rhythm of family life. They’re part of the family until they become part of yours.
Thank you for considering one of our pups. We’re honored to be part of your journey in finding your next best friend.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black and silver. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Behind the bark, though, is a loving girl who adores affection and will nudge your hand for nonstop pets. She’s lightning fast when the zoomies strike, and her impressive high jumps keep us all entertained. A true fruit lover, Sophia goes wild for strawberries, blueberries, watermelon, and apples. Full of sass, speed, and snuggles, Sophia is the perfect mix of watchdog and sweetheart.

Ana’s puppy is great and healthy and she is a very responsive breeder.
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
