5 Weeks Old!

Our puppies are 5 weeks old today. They are getting big, they change every day. When they are awake, they jump and play and wrestle. They have cute little barks and sharp little teeth. Solid food has been introduced to their diets and they are almost weaned from mom, which she must be happy about based on the sharp teeth! My 4 children are having a blast with them. They always want to hold them and play with them, which is great. They will be well socialized. Each of them have started to develope their own personalities. Brutus is still the biggest, but he's playful and mellow. We have found him a wonderful home and we're excited for his new owners. Boo is full of spunk and we have decided to keep him in our home - I knew it would happen! Lady has become a true lady. She is sweet and playful and loves her new toys. Belle is a sweatheart. She loves to cuddle and is the mellow one in the bunch. Last but not least, Tink is spunky and freindly and will be going to live in a wonderful home. So, if you weren't paying attention, we only have 2 females left - Lady and Belle. They are recieving their first set of shots next week and will be ready to go to their new homes by the end of May. Call today to reserve your puppy!

Our Puppies Have Arrived!


3 weeks ago, we welcomed 5 new puppies to our home. They were born early on April 3rd. Mia is a wonderful mother and is taking great care of them. In the last 3 weeks they have changed so much, they have tripled in size. Their eyes are open and they are starting to walk on all fours. We are excited to share these next couple of weeks with you, as we watch them grow and prepare them for their new families. They will be ready to go to loving homes in 5 weeks. They have had their tails docked and their dew claws removed. They will also recieve their first set of shots. Both parents are registered with the AKC and each pup will come with the appropriate papers for registration. If you are interested in bringing one of these darlings home, please contact me at the email or phone number listed.

Meet the Girls!


We have 3 beautiful little females. My children have temporarily named them, of course. We call the largest female "Lady" although she is anything but a lady! The vocal one, they call Belle, she is a little princess. And the smallest of the bunch, they named "Tinkerbell" or Tink for short!

Meet the Boys!


We have 2 male puppies. My children named the largest of the bunch "Brutus" - he always is first to eat and last to finish. And the other male they call "Boo" - he is my favorite and possibly a keeper!

Meet Mama Mia

Mia is a wonderful purebred, papered miniature schnauzer. She is 2 years old and this is her first and only litter. During delivery, one of the puppies got stuck - the last one to come out, of course, and consequently our poor little Mia had to have a c-section. Ouch! She recovered quickly, but sadly, she will not be having anymore puppies. Mia is my pal, she follows me everywhere I go. And if you're familiar with schnauzers you know how vocal they can be. Mia thinks she can talk, she actually howls "I love you"! At least that is what it sounds like to us. She is great with my 4 children and we love having her in our home.
