I'm Tina C., the breeder behind The Blue Eyed Schnauzer located in Winter Haven, FL. My love affair with Miniature Schnauzers began 30 years ago with my first named Harley Girl. I've been smitten with the breed ever since. If you're looking for a "human" dog, this is your breed. They are exceptionally smart, loyal and fierce protectors of their family.
Q. & A. with Tina
Why did you start breeding?
My goal is to offer the highest quality puppies, afforded every possible benefit. I spoil them!
What makes your program special?
Our breeding dogs have been AKC DNA tested for superior genetics with no defects. These puppies are cuddled daily, introduced to potty training, basic commands and are exposed to different environments (such as TV, vacuum, appliance sounds, adults, children and other dogs). They are acclimated to car rides and even come with a harness and seatbelt attachment for safety in the car.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include wheaten, parti, liver, black, salt and pepper, and black and silver. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
