I'm Cecelia V., the breeder behind Valdez Mini Schnauzers located in Sacramento, CA. I am a first time dog breeder, I absolutely love the miniature schnauzers, they are family oriented and very easy to train. I love being outdoor and taking my fur babies with me on a hike or a run, or just laying or the couch watching TV! They are great companions, they do not shed, and have a great personality.
Q. & A. with Cecelia
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding because I suffer from allergies and asthma and it was hard to find a pet that didnt trigger my allergies and asthma. the MS does not shed, they train so quick, they are the perfect family pet.
What makes your program special?
I work with each puppy to ensure they are healthy, both parents received a genetic screening and are healthy and on a well balanced diet. All puppies will be fed a well balanced diet as soon as they are no longer breastfed. They are also evaluated by a licensed veterinarian within the first 4-5 wks of birth. All puppies will be sent home with full up to date immunizations, and a new puppy packet.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include liver and black and silver. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
