    I had an amazing experience getting my puppy from Rick. He was incredibly responsive, always answering my questions quickly and thoroughly. He also welcomed me to visit as often as I wanted, which really helped me feel confident and excited about bringing my pup home. What I really appreciated was how much insight he shared on how to raise and care for my puppy—everything from feeding and training tips to health routines. He also took the time to walk me through all the complicated paperwork, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. You can tell he genuinely cares about his dogs and wants them to go to good homes. My puppy is healthy, well-socialized, and so smart. I couldn’t be happier, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and knowledgeable breeder.

    Rick was amazing to work with. He really helped me to fill the void left by the unexpected death of my 14 year old mini, Cinder. Phineas has filled that hole perfectly! I brought Phineas (Finn) home and the whole family loves him. Thanks Rick and socal schnauzers!

    Rick is a great Breeder to work with! He was very responsive and sent me updates on my Isabel Weekly or whenever I asked. The day I went to pick Isabel up I ended up falling for Henry and couldn’t decide between the two so I took them both! His mini schnauzers are amazing and Isabel and Henry are settling in very well! I’m looking forward to getting My third mini schnauzer from Rick soon! ☺️

    Review for Dog Breeder Rick I recently had the pleasure of working with Rick, and I can't say enough good things about my experience! From the moment I reached out, Rick displayed exceptional communication. He was friendly, welcoming, and always eager to answer my questions. It's clear that Rick has a tremendous love for his dogs and puppies. The environment he provides is warm and nurturing, which reflects in the health and happiness of the puppies. I was truly impressed by how well-cared-for each puppy was, and it was heartwarming to see their playful personalities shine through. I highly recommend Rick as a dog breeder! If you're looking for a loving and responsible breeder who prioritizes the well-being of their puppies, Rick is the one to contact!
