I'm the breeder behind Samson's Schnauzers located in Bowie, MD. I am a home-based breeder offering puppies that are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive, and have wonderful temperaments. I produce litters with the utmost care and attention possible, and I research all lines prior to breeding. My program is home to champion dogs that are excellent in the show ring as well as athletic and as beloved companions. It would be my honor to introduce your family to your next Miniature Schnauzer!
About Brenda
I am nearing retirement and am starting to get back into breeding full-time after a long break. My dogs are a huge part of my life, and I enjoy spending time with them both through competition showing and just cuddling up together at home.
What makes Brenda’s program special
My stud dog is a proud champion! I also started showing my girl in conformation prior to Covid. My dogs are part of my family and are hand-raised by me. I breed for temperament, conformation, structure, intelligence, and health to ensure I am producing the best pups possible. In my breeding program, good health and temperament are essential, cuteness is guaranteed, and lots of love is always included.

I do my best to begin training my puppies to prepare them for success in their new homes. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Avidog Savvy Socialization Program.
Puppies are vaccinated, dewormed, have their tails docked, dewclaws removed, and receive a veterinary checkup prior to going to their forever homes.
Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates. While Samson's Schnauzers hasn’t shared specifics yet, we encourage you to reach out directly to learn what thoughtful extras they may include to help your puppy transition comfortably into their new home.
Brenda offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.
If you’re nearby, you can visit in person to pick up your pup. If you’re far away, you can travel by car or plane.
“We do not ship puppies you are welcome to come to our home and pick up your puppy”
Why Brenda started breeding
I understand the very important role that breeders undertake; that being today’s breeders are the guardians of the future Miniature Schnauzer. I have been active in the show ring for conformation shows and started breeding not only for preservation, but to continue and improve upon my cherished and award-winning line.
