Available puppies

No, and that's deliberate. Matching is based on six weeks of observed temperament, not coat colour. A very dominant puppy placed in a home with young children becomes a problem about a year later. We introduce you to the puppy or puppies that suit your household, and you decide from there.

No dog is truly hypoallergenic — be wary of anyone who claims otherwise. A Schnauzer's wiry coat, kept up with regular grooming, sheds far less dander than a short-coated breed, which suits many sensitive people well. If someone in your household has a confirmed allergy, we recommend an extended visit before you reserve.

No. Every family collects their puppy in Westmount. It lets us show you the handling and grooming routine one last time, hand over the complete file, and see the puppy leave in good conditions. We never ship puppies by carrier.

First round of vaccinations, complete deworming, a microchip registered in your name, a veterinary exam in the days before departure, a health record, registration papers, a first grooming already under way, a few days' worth of food and a blanket carrying the litter's scent.

Yes. A two-year guarantee against serious hereditary conditions, given to you in writing when the contract is signed. It provides for replacement or refund, your choice. We also hand you the screening results for both parents — hips, patellas, heart, eyes and the von Willebrand panel.

They come back here, at any age, without judgement. It's written into the contract. A dog we brought into the world doesn't end up in a shelter or a classified ad — we take them back, or we find them a new home ourselves.

Between four and ten months, depending on the line and the season. Our litters are often full before they're born, since we produce at most two a year. If nothing matches right now, join the list: we notify waiting families before a litter is published on the site.
