Q. & A. with Jackie
Why did you start breeding?
Our involvement in the show world and competition rings inspired us to breed to not only continue our award-winning lines, but to produce quality puppies and ensure the future of the Miniature Schnauzer for generations to come. It is an honor to represent this breed and create opportunities for others to do the same. We bred our first litter in 2017 and haven't looked back!
What makes your program special?
Our program is special because of our dogs. Miniature Schnauzers are such a joy, and we find so much fulfillment in raising and preparing them for their loving, forever homes. Our breeding stock is extensively health tested and successful in the show ring to guarantee puppies with an accomplished pedigree. We are dedicated to always having responsible breeding policies not only when producing and raising litters, but when training them, too! We want our puppies to thrive in their forever homes, and enjoy mentoring their new families so that they can raise their new, furry companions with confidence and joy.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
