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.

Meet Harley, the dad

Harley is friendly and full of energy. He is a purebred and papered miniature schnauzer as well. He has beautiful markings that some of our puppies have inherited.
