Puppy Prices:

We sell four sizes of schnauzers - Mini's, small mini's, toys and teacups. We also breed to produce nearly every possible color that exists for a schnauzer. Our Purchase price for a puppy varies depending on size and color.  Generally, our prices are as follows:

     - $750 plus tax for a Miniature Schnauzer puppy - maturing 12-14 inches at the shoulder, weighing 15-20 lbs
     - $900 plus tax for a Small Miniature Schnauzer puppy - maturing 11-13 inches, 11-14 lbs.
     - $1100 plus tax for a toy schnauzer - maturing 10 lbs or less
     - $1300 plus tax for a teacup schnauzer - maturing 6 lbs or less.
     - for any variation of liver (Chocolate) - add $200 to above prices - see note below

Please note, while we do our best to estimate puppy size at maturity based on size of parents and previous litters etc, we cannot guarantee mature size. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate and where the estimate sits on the border between two sizes, the price charged will be the lower price.

LIVER Color :

f the puppy will be any variation of the Liver (chocolate) color, add $200 to the prices listed above.  The Liver color is very recessive and very rare so solid Liver, liver/tan, liver parti or white with liver points or any other variations of the liver gene puppies are sold for a higher price.

Puppy Deposits ($350):

Once puppies are born, a deposit of $350 is required to hold your puppy until it is ready for its new home. A second payment of $350 is required when puppies are 4 weeks old. The balance owing for your puppy is due in cash when the puppy is picked up. The puppy deposit is refundable unti the puppy is 4 weeks old. If you decide not to take the puppy after its 4 week birthday, your money will be refunded less $50 for an administration fee.

Puppy Tails (optional docking - $45): 

Owners can decide to either have a natural or docked tail. A tail can be docked if a puppy is purchased at birth since tails are normally docked when puppies are three days old. 

All our puppies will have natural ears. We do not crop ears on puppies.

NOTE: Effective January 1, 2009, all puppy tails will be left natural unless otherwise requested by owners.  There will be an additional $45 charge for docking the tail. 

Early Spay/Neuter and Tattoo ($150):

As of September, 2009, we have made arrangements with our vet at Clearbrook Animal Hospital to spay/neuter puppies at 7 weeks of age. When they are altered, they will also be given an ear tattoo which can be used to identify them if they are lost or stolen. I have resisted offereing this procedure in the past fearing that it would be a difficult process to put young puppies through but after visiting a breeder friend of mine who has been doing all her puppies for years, I was convinced that it was actually better. I offered this as an option for one of my litters with 4 of 7 buyers choosing the early spay/neuter and tattoo. Puppies were taken to the vet in the morning and picked up at noon. By supper, when all the puppies were running around in the yard, you could not tell which puppies had been altered and which hadn't. There were no complications, no fasting prior to surgery, no stitches to remove and no additional painkillers required. Puppies bounced back so quickly, it was amazing! By the time they went home a week later you could barely see any incision. With the early spay/neuter, secondary characteristics associated with sexual maturity never present themselves and you are able to avoid having to deal with behaviour normally associated with hormones.

If you want to take advantage of the early spay/neuter and tattoo, we are offering the procedure to anyone purchasing one of our puppies for a significantly reduced price of $150. This is a substantial savings over what you would pay if you waited until your puppy was 6 months to a year of age. This price includes taxes. Please let us know if you want this option added to your invoice.

Effective January 1, 2010, our puppy prices will increase to include this option for every puppy we sell.

Crate Package ($50):

All our puppies are crate trained prior to leaving for their new homes. Most will be very comfortable being in a crate for short periods of time. As a new puppy owner, we know your life will be considerably less frustrating if you continue to use a crate after you take your puppy home. If you would like a crate for your puppy, we have put together a crate package that includes the crate, a brand new dog toy, grooming. Purchased seperately, this is a $75 value that you get for $50. Please let us know if you want this option added to your invoice.

Shipping (prices vary):

We ship our puppies across Canada and into the USA as long as puppies are at least 8 weeks old. If you live too far away to come pick up your puppy, we can ship it to you via air on a choice of several major airlines. Prices for shipping will vary according to the weight of the puppy and crate, the size of the crate and the distance the puppy travels. We charge actual shipping charges plus the cost of the health certificate (where required by the airline) and a flat rate of $20 for gas if shipping out of Abbotsford airport and $40 for gas if shipping out of the Vancouver airport. If you are shipping the puppy, the crate package will automatically be added to your invoice because you must have an airline approved crate for shipping. This way we make sure it is the right size for your puppy and the puppy has time to get used to being in it before it is shipped.

Your puppy must be paid for in full (including the shipping charges) at least 3 days prior to the day the puppy flies home. We will coordinate the shipping date and time with you in advance. Please be flexible as to times as we prefer to ship puppies on the most direct flight available to minimize the stress to the puppy. We also reserve the right to keep the puppy here longer if necessary to make sure it is physically and emotionally ready for the trip.

Payment Options:

We accept cash, cheque, paypal or money order for all deposits and 4 week puppy payments. Final payments must be cash, paypal or money order. If you choose to pay for your puppy via paypal, please add 3.5% to the total required to cover the paypal fees. Our paypal account is different from my email address advertised on this site. Please contact me in advance to get the correct email address if you are using paypal to make a payment for your puppy.
