I'm Greg B., the breeder behind V. Brukenthal Miniature Schnauzers located in Lucasville, OH. My dogs are combinations of American and European bloodlines. I strive to achieve excellent health, beauty, intelligence, and conformation within the breed standard. I offer loving family pets, show, and breeding prospects for the right families, breeders, or show fancies.
Q. & A. with Greg
Why did you start breeding?
At the time in Romania, the quality of Miniature Schnauzers was not as great as it could have been. So, I decided to start importing dogs so that I could build my own program to try to improve my beloved breed. These dogs are so magnificent, they deserve nothing but the best. I aim to continue my strong lines while improving the quality of this breed with each litter.
What makes your program special?
With 30+ years of experience and a deep love for this breed, I am able to ensure the health and overall well-being of each and every dog and puppy. It is a true honor to work with Miniature Schnauzers and I am proud of their accomplishments. I am thrilled to be sharing my love of this breed with others and I look forward to connecting with you!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
