I'm Patricia N., the breeder behind Tosca Standard Schnauzers located in Springdale, OH. I'm very passionate about Schnauzers, and I love spending my life with them. These wonderful dogs are why I love what I do. I breed healthy, beautiful puppies. I take my job seriously, knowing that my puppies will become someone's darling comrade. Each puppy is considered a member of my family, and I can certify they are socialized, healthy, and prepared to make a smooth transition into their forever homes. My dogs are bred for those specifics, and I take pride in my breeding program.
