Michelle’s experience

  • About Michelle

    Hi! I'm Michelle. I have always had a love for animals and have always had a little dog or two, along with birds, rabbits and other critters. My husband and I also raise peacocks of many colors.

    I breed dogs for the love of the dog! I fell in love with schnauzers and love to share the breed with others.

Price

Puppy prices range from $700 - $900 and include a non-refundable deposit of $700.

“My puppies are purebred, but not registered (since I do not show dogs, I don't worry about papers). Puppies will have all puppy shots and have been wormed. They will come with a puppy starter pack. To reserve a puppy, place your non-refundable deposit. The deposit will be applied to the final cost of the puppy.”
