Dogs are family!

“How Schnauzer Paradise became one of the best miniature schnauzer breeders in the country”

From owning our very first Miniature Schnauzer to creating an established bloodline known and loved by adopters far and wide, our journey as an AKC Miniature Schnauzer Breeder has been an incredible experience! It all started with a simple idea. An idea founded on both our lifestyle and belief system, embedded by a dedication towards caring for our furry four legged friends. Miniature Schnauzers Paradise was founded on the principle that dogs are family. It’s a phrase and belief system that we hear often. It touches on the emotional and physical impact that our four legged friends can have within a home. It hints at a value set that elevates our canine companions; an acknowledgement that they represent something more…something bigger.

Our Schnauzers Come First

“The key to success is to revolve every decision around the well being of our dogs”

Early on we realized  that everything we do as miniature schnauzer breeders needed to revolve around the well being of our miniature schnauzers.  We were initially attracted to the breed because of its hypoallergenic characteristics and intelligence.  We then quickly fell in love with our Schnauzer’s unique personalities and loyalty.  We developed our value systems out of love and respect for the breed.  Our breeding program is first most importantly dedicated to producing healthy bloodlines because of the heartbreak an unhealthy mini schnauzer puppy can have on a family.  We follow our socialization program diligently, because we want every one of our miniature schnauzer puppies to be prepared and flourish in their new homes.  Our interview process and puppy matching program are designed to ensure each one of our miniature schnauzer puppies is homed with the correct family and has the best chance of succeeding.  You see, if you truly do care and if you dogs really are family, the quality of our dogs and happiness of our adopters will take care of itself.

Most frequent questions and answers

Like all things in life, breeding for health is simply a matter of priority.  We are blind to many of the breed priorities that distract other bulldog breeders from improving the health of their Schnauzer.  We focus on health and personality and very little else.  We are not interested in winning a blue ribbon in the show ring.  Rather, we test for things like luxated patellar tendons, eye issues, heart defects, hip dysplasia, ect.  We focus and prioritize creating healthy bloodlines, therefore our schnauzers are typically much healthier than the breed as a whole.  While it’s not rocket science, it is a uniquely different take within miniature schnauzer breeders and all of our AKC mini schnauzers reflect this value set.

Our true desire is to create the perfect family schnauzers.  We believe a healthy schnauzer = a happy family.  We also believe a schnauzer bred for the correct personality is essential to the family unit as well. Our Schnauzer is bred for intelligence and playfulness.  We want our Schnauzers to be full of personality and some fun.   We believe a full personality along with intelligence is the true North star of the Schnauzer breed and is what makes them unique among other breeds. We look for these personality traits in our adult Schnauzers and continue to create bloodlines that reflect these qualities and produce a high quality Mini Schnauzer for sale.
