Meet the breeder

I'm Rick S., the breeder behind Stratton House Kennels located in Noblesville, IN. At Stratton House Kennel, we are committed to maintaining strong, healthy dogs with excellent temperament, sound structure, and true working ability. We breed only from parents with proven health, champion bloodlines (Venezuelan, Mexican, etc.), and exceptional character.

Q. & A. with Rick

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We began breeding Giant Schnauzers after our own Giant's made such a huge impact on our lives. We have a strong desire to help other families feel the same joy from their own Giant!
  • What makes your program special?

    Our Giants are Family-Raised, Not Kennel-Raised – Our Giant Schnauzers live in our home and are part of our daily family life. They grow up around children, other dogs, and real-world experiences, which helps them develop confidence and adaptability.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black and tan and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Great level

Stratton House Kennels reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Giant Schnauzers.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Vet Wellness Exam

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
