We love to get updates and pictures from our pups'
new families. We've made some wonderful friends through our schnauzers! Here
are some comments and pictures from e-mails from our pups's new families -

-June '08 - Heidi is 15 months now and weighs in at 11 pounds. ;) I thought you might enjoying watching a youtube video of her tricks at 10 months. Luke (now 13) has trained her well! Heidi is very intelligent and feisty (like Luke.) ;) She has many more tricks now and when he records another youtube, I’ll send it your way. |
 The first week we brought him home. |
We bought a puppy from you in February 2008, a chocolate parti-pup and we just wanted to let you all know that he is doing great! He is now 6 months, he was one of your larger pup's. You were right Gayle, he hasn't grown too much but he has gained a lot of weight. He weighs about 22 lbs.! He loves to eat! He is completely leashed trained and he is very obedient but he has a streak of stubbornness in him, not to worry, I got that covered! We named him Harley Lloyd! My husband couldn't stop calling him Lloyd even though I had already named him Harley so we compromised and we gave him a middle name!
So here's Mr. Harley Lloyd! These aren't recent photos but I will send you some soon.
|
This is a couple of weeks later. He weighed in at 15 lbs! |
 Here he is coming back from potty on his leash! |
 Trying to look into the camera with those pretty green eyes! |
April '08 Thanks again for a beautiful, healthy puppy! |

April'08 Klaus has started leash training. I thought you may like to see just how much he has grown since February 12th! He now weighs 10.5 pounds......an increase of over 4lbs. in four weeks! He is growing so very fast. |
 |
 February '08 |
March '08 Update Yes Klaus has become a handful, but he is in the terrible two's! I have resorted to pots for all my plants and they are now up on small outdoor tables that he cannot get to! He is constantly into something and chewling on everything right now, but I know he will outgrow it eventually. He is such a blessing in spite of the mischief! February '08 Lloyd and Gayle, thank you so much for the addition to our family......'Klaus' is fitting right in and making himself at home, as you can see from the photograph! Schultze is handling a new member nicely. Visit our blog: http://www.schultzeinbuda.blogspot.com |

April '08 Just wanted to share a picture of our Maddy. We love her to pieces. She's so much fun to have around. |
 |
April '08 Hope all is well with you and Lloyd and the pups. It's been almost a year and Pretzel just celebrated his 1yr. I have attached a few pics. The kids love him dearly and he has become part of the family. |
 |
April '08 Hi just wanted to let you know Dafne is doing well and she's a great addition to our family. I'll send more pictures as she grows. Thank you for letting us "adopt" Dafne. |

March 2008 I just wanted to say thanks for such a cute cute puppy. I know I've only had him for 2 1/2 weeks, and I'll definitely be sending you pictures when he's older to update you...but I just want you to know that Willie is doing great at my house. My daughter just loves him, but she doesn't love him as much as my other dog...They are best friends! Lucky for me, since I knew my other dog needed a four-legged friend! He is pretty much a genius when it comes to potty training! Of course I have a doggy door which makes things way easier on me, but the only time he's EVER had an accident in the house is when it's raining. He slept in his cage a total of one night, but I couldn't take it, and now he sleeps in bed with me and his big brother...my Yorkie, Rowdy! I just wanted to say thank you for raising such an adorable dog, and I'm so glad I got my pup from you. When he gets bigger I will send you some more pictures |

March 2008 -
Just wanted to send you a photo of Shadow and update you. She will be 1 yrs old on March 7Th, 2008. As you can see she is just like one of the kids and LOVES to cuddle. I think her coloring has turned out very beautiful. She had little white when we got her, but she is a great mixture now. I just started on line schooling. So, when I am working on classes she is on the big table looking out the window next to me. You can see that in one of the photos. She loves to watch out the window. We have truly enjoyed her and I keep trying to convince my husband we need another one she can have a sister.......I check your web page for new babies often. I hope one day I will be calling to get another one for you. I would love a chocolate or salt and pepper one.
Take care and again thank you for such a great addition to our family.  |

September 2007 -I wanted to send you an updated photo of Shadow. She is such a fufu dog is what my friends call her. She is spoiled rotten but we enjoy spoiling her. She has grown so much, lost all of her baby teeth except her K9's. Her coat gets prettier and prettier I think. She has more white than she did two months ago. She is a lap dog still and loves to cuddle with anyone. She is still pretty much a mama's dog. I finally got her to playing with another dog. She has a friend named Alabama, she is a schnauzer as well 2 mos older than Shadow and solid white.She still does not like the car. She does not like change and stuff moved around the house. If we get something new she will bark for a few days until she realizes it is not moving. I just wanted to say thank you again for a loving dog with in the breedline you have. June 2007 - I just wanted to give you an update on Shadow. ...She is such a joy for us around here. She has definetly sparked things up in thes household. she loves to play fetch, run in the sprinkler and chase the kids in the yard. ... She loves people and is scared of other dogs. We have dogs on both sides and she runs from the fence when they bark. She just now started barking back at them, but that is only if she is sitting behind me. She has turned out to be a Mama's girl.... When the kids were in school she would sit and watch them all leave school. The stairs were a challenge for her. She could get up, but would just whine for help down. She decided one day to conquer it and did a great job at it. We stayed beside her to make sure she did not fall. She is such a joy for us and I just wanted to say thank you again. |
 Connor & Simon |
January '08 Thank you guys so much! Connor is definatly loved here. He's such a Mama's boy... |

Hello, we purchased a white schauzer back in early May 2007 from you. She has been a great addition to our family. Our two year old schauzer Gabby and her are like sisters and even though Daizy is the younger, she is the one in charge. Here are some pictures of Daizy when we got her and the most current picture of us all together

December '07 Update |
 |
(February
2007 update) Just wanted to say hello and send you a couple of pictures. I think by far I have the pick of the litter, I have a very beautiful puppy. Taysha is doing great at 7 mos old and she wanted to say hello to her breeders!  |
(May 2007 update) |
 |
I adopted a blk female schnauzer from your family almost a month ago and named her Taysha. Taysha has brought so much love and laughter to my home I am considering adopting another puppy....as soon as she is done with her potty training of course. Taysha has the cuttest personality I have ever seen, as soon as I get home and let her out of the kitchen she gets her toys one by one and parks them along with herself right next to me in the living room. Thank you for the perfect pup. |
Schnauzertex Note: Lloyd is a transplanted Canadian Texan - and we finally have our first Schnauzertex puppies in Canada! The "CKC" referred to below is the Canadian Kennel Club. Nathalie & Dave are breeders in Alberta, Canada! AK Kennels |

Texas Snow Dogs
We have just had our first snowfall. I thought you would like to see pics
of Dixie chick and Dallas in the snow.
They are with the black that I held back from the last litters. The AKC paperwork has already gone through
I am just waiting on the CKC transfer now. They are just wonderful I have not done haircuts yet because
of the weather. I usualy do not cut till spring and live with shaggy schnauzers all winter. Its warmer for them if they have all their fur. Nathalie and Dave

I got Domino last spring and I just wanted to let ya'll see how cute she is now! Domino is growing up happily and she is cute as can be! She is really smart and surprisingly doesn't bark that much! |

 September 2007 - Lucky with his friends! |

Just wanted to share some more pictures of Roxy with ya'll. We love her to death!! and she is definately the spoiled puppy around here and gets all the attention in the world! Thanks a bunch and thanks for raising a fun, playful puppy for us! | Update November 2007  My Son and Daughter in Law bought Roxy from you a little
over a year ago.
She is the best granddog a
grandmother could have. Just sending you an updated picture of her.
|
 |
We bought our Duncan and Rose from you in May. They have grown so much! They are just the best dogs I’ve ever had. Their personalities are so different yet both loving and friendly and very smart. I wanted to show you how they have grown and to also let you know they are living in a good home! We love them and take them on trips to Petsmart and flag football games on Saturdays. When we go out of town they go to stay at Grandmas for the weekend because she wouldn’t have it any other way. |
 |
 |
Just sending an update about Ami and Kai they are half brothers and we couldn't be happier with them. We got them from you in August and they have brought so much joy to our home. Thank you for such wonderful babies!

I got Abigail, known as Abby, from you in early March of 2006. She is only 10 pounds and had a pair of twins Aug 13th..... they are gorgeous and we are keeping the little girl, Elspeth, Ellie. Angus loves her. And between feeding the pups, she is up here in my lap,.. She likes to sleep on my head (yes, I said my head) the most. Just wanted to let you know that she is a precious part of our family and I have passed your name on to others.
Great pups, wonderful friends,.....

 Rascal as a Baby |
We are very happy with the boy we got from you almost 2 years ago and are looking to possibly expand our family. (They did come back in September and got Precious!) |
 Rascal and Precious |
 I just
wanted to take a moment and say thank you for such a great puppy.
He is doing great, and I look forward to getting a female. Attached is our newest addition thanks you all. |
  Harry & his new girlfriend! (They did come back in July and got Harry a girl friend!) |
-----2007 Update---
My sister and I were there in early July to see the puppies and she bought 'Trump' from you and Lloyd. Well he is doing well and he met Max. Actually, he spent a whole week with Max and I since my sister had to go out of town. Well they got along better than I expected because Max is such an alpha dog, I was worried he would not be very friendly to him. By the way, she named him, Hans. I wanted to send you a picture of the both of them. Hans is such a good dog, I guess since she got him a 5 months old, he already knew alot of commands. When I got home from work, he was so happy to see me his whole butt wiggled with his little nub of a tail. It was cute. Also, Max's birthday is this month on the 19th and he will be 5. He too is a great dog. The whole family enjoys having them around.
Thanks again and we'll keep in touch.

 Hans & Max |
 Max & Mom |
It's been a while since I have written. I got Max from you about
4 years ago. He was the son of Burt and Emily born in Aug 2002. I have
so enjoyed having him. I attached some updated pictures. For being four
years old he is still very active and loves playing with his toys. He
is very spoiled and loved by everyone in the family. |

-------Mitzi on Vacation 2007------ |
 |
 |
 |
 |
We just love our little Mitzi. She is so smart and has put such joy in our lives. She absolutely loves her new coat and sweater and thinks she has to have one on before she can go outside now. She had a blast on Halloween greeting everyone at the door with her orange shirt with the bat on the back. She has learned to put her toys in their basket and fetches her leash for us to go on our walks. What a blessing. Thanks so much for bringing her into my world. |

 Hi my name is Oscar. I'm from Texas, but now I live in NY. It was cold when I got here, but my Mom got me a green coat. I met three friends today, they were big. I was scared of the first one, but he was nice. The last one was grouchy, but I think it was because he had to go to too many parties. Love, Oscar |
I
just wanted to give you an update on "Oscar". I don't think
I could have asked for a better dog. He was great on the plane only
squeaked a couple times on the first flight and then as soon as I let
him see me after I opened the top of his bag he settled right down and
snoozed through the flight. In between flights a lady spied him and
snuggled him for half an hour, I didn't think she'd ever give him back,
thank goodness my plane was leaving and she finally had to give him
up. He went to the vets yesterday for his second set of shots and was a huge hit. He took a little nap up on the table while the vet gave him his shots! He is the perfect combination of laid back and spunky. Everybody loves him! He already knows how to retrieve his little squirrel baby and he went for a short walk on the leash today. I adore him. Thank you so much. March 2007 |
 September 2007 Oscar just had a haircut and is looking so handsome (there really was a schanuzer under all that hair!) I just had to send you a photo of him. He's almost 6 mo. now and he is so wonderful, he's so friendly with everyone. I was walking him yesterday evening and a man driving by rolls down his window and yells "what a beautiful dog!" People stop me all the time to tell me how cute he is and ask about him. He's quite a character and he's made my life so much better. Thank you. |
Diamond has brought us so much joy since we had her. We purchased her from you back in November 2006. She has grown to be such a sweet young lady. Thank you again for our bundle of joy. We may be paying you a visit again to get Diamond a playmate. |

I wanted to send you a picture of Buster. He is the joy of our life. Without him, I don't know what we would without him. He is so very jealous of the new grandbaby, but he enjoys having the babies very much as long as long as I am not holding them.
He is so loving to both of us.
Buster is fast approaching 2 years old. I would love to have another one, but there is not enough room in the bed for all of us as it is. He has been a wonderful friend to us. He is our baby and very much loved. |
 |
Just thought you'd like to see Owen and his new big sister, Baby. She adores him and he follows her like the sun. |
 |

Fancy's First Birthday......... We just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know Fancy has been nothing but joy to us. She is such a sweet and loving little girl. And of course she gets pampered just like a new born child. I would recommend you to anyone that wants a loving companion to add to their household. Thanks again for meeting us in Houston. |
Hello
I thought I would send you a picture of Toby with his new friend. He
is doing great fitting right in and very much loved. |
 |
 Dusty & Sugar |
My
husband bought one of your white female puppies as a present for me
this past Christmas. I named her Sugar and I absolutely LOVE her!! She
has brought such joy into my life! She is smart, loyal, friendly, playful,
and has the cutest little personality ever!!  |
 |
I
got Baron for my 25th birthday last November when he was 7 months old.
He is the cutest dog with the best personality. Outside of going to
work, he is my side kick and joins me pretty much everywhere. He does
great in the car, in new surroundings, with kids, and has even made
friends with my cat Maggie. I just love this little guy. Thank you so
much for spreading the happiness.

Lou Lou Bear! |

This is Merri. We got her from you guys in December 2006. She was born in August 2006. Just wanted to send you an updated picture of her. She is really a great little girl. I get so many comments about how beautiful she is and how they have never seen a schnauzer in her colors. Even groomers say they have never seen such a schnauzer. Also people say they have never seen such a small schnauzer. She likes to play with the bark that comes off our palm trees as seen in this picture. She is almost 8 months now. We are so happy to have her in our life. Thank you! |
 Maddi |
I
wanted to send a quick note to tell you about the two girls we got at
Christmas. For my Mom, Countess Von Scruffington or "Scruffy"
is doing well and has become a wonderful companion for my Mom. She is
very well behaved. And for us, Miss Maddison Major or "Maddi" is growing like a weed. She is ruff and tumble and very head strong. She is no longer timid that is for sure. She loves it here and has a great time running around with our daughter out in the back yard. The girls do get together at least once a week and run around together and they get along pretty well, when Maddi is not taking Scuffy's toys from her! : ) Thanks so much for the joy these two have brought. I will try and get some pictures of them playing together next time! |
 Scruffy |
Amber |
( March 2007 Update: Amber joined her half-sister Ashley in December 2006.) Little
Amber is growing like a weed, not getting very big but she is a hand
full. She is such a busy little girl, Bruce has a hard time staying
ahead of her. |
Ashley |
|
Here are some photos of Ashley in the pool, she is a real water dog. I call her my little water rat. She does love to swim and dive into the water. Bruce said there will never be another Ashley. She follows him every step he makes. In one of the pictures you will see a blue bear laying on the edge of the pool, that poor thing goes swimming almost everyday, then has to be thrown in the dryer. She jumps in with it in her mouth. In that same picture she is on the steps of the pool, she is getting ready to jump in. |
|
 |
We just wanted to let you know that we love our
Paisley. She has brought a lot of joy to our life and couldn't imagine
it without her. She loves to talk and is one of the sweetest dogs I
have ever had. Although she is a bit of a bed hog we wouldn't trade
her for anything. Here are some photos of her at the park. Thank you
so much |
 |
 |
Here is my Lily all grown up now playing outside. I love her she is a tiny little thing and loves me dearly ! She
is only 7 lbs believe or not
|
 |
Here is a photo of my Handsome Hugo! He was born April 8th, 2005
and I purchased him early June that year and he has grown up to be
an adorable best friend! My mother is purchasing a little Parti of
her own after meeting my cute little guy! |
 |
We
purchased a solid white schnauzer in Austin going on 7 years ago. She
is still the love of our lives! ....I'm so excited I found you! I did
look on Zoe's papers last night and found who the parents were and was
sure you were the right folks. She is such a dear to us. Goes everywhere
with us, office, my folks...even on vacation! Sleeps in the bed with
our daughter, but prefers sleeping with us...she's so incredibly spoiled,
but we'd have her no other way! She has a wonderful life. |
 |
|
Finally
getting around to sending you a note and a picture of Bailey. She is
a joy, just as you promised. I'm not sure how I got along without her
and can't believe it took me so long to decide to get another dog. She
is full of joy and shares it freely. She thinks every person was put
on earth just to love and pay attention to her and tends to get offended
if they don't want to do that, not that we have met very many who aren't
willing, I mean, just look at that face, how can you resist her? As
promised I had to get Bailey a playmate. |
 |
Just
wanted to send you a few photos of Ginger. We got her from you Feb. 15
of last year. She is doing great and we couldn't have asked for a better
dog. |
 |
Harley is doing
great. No problems with the other animals. Harley seems to be the alpha.
........ He already thinks he should get all the attention. He is a
pretty fearless pup, he walked down to the river with me onto the dock
without a second thought. He loved his first boat ride, fishing excursion. |
February
2007 Update He
is the most lovable dog we have ever had. So he gets a little persnickady
around other dogs. At least he learns fast and picks up tricks very
quickly. He sits. lays. roll's, circle's, dance's, crawl's all on hand
signals. He will do anything for a treat. |
| Just to let you
know, Fritz is settling in just fine his new home.
Potty training is proceeding with only a few mishaps when we wait just
a little too long, and he sleeps the night in his little cage on a doggy
pillow with hardly a peep. Soon after he's up, he drags the pillow out
for playtime and naps. He's started to learn fetch with his toys, but
it soon turns into keep-away which is when we quit. The sun coming through
a dormer window makes a slow sweeping warm spot across the floor which
he has learned to follow during nap times. He loves to lap sit / sleep
especially in the evening.
He'll sit by the window and watch the horses in the pasture, which he attempts to intimidate by barking but is slowly learning he has no effect whatsoever. He's been introduced up close as well, and they think he is just something to sniff and pay no attention to his scolding. Kind of funny to watch him up on his hind feet, and them leaning down, and sniffing each other. We haven't let him loose yet, as he would surely attempt to move them around and likely get kicked.
| 
A couple times he did sneak out the door before we could catch him, and he ran around just briefly and then came back when called. The cat is totally put off by his nonsense, and has been relegated to the bedroom until more socialization can occur. We suspect this one may take a while |
 |
Just
dropping you a line to let you know that Sir Raleigh Millington the
1st (Raleigh, or puppy #3) is doing very well in his new environment.
He was very shy and timid, as you know, when we first picked him up,
but he's very active and playful now that he's gotten used to us. We
also got a kitten and the two of them have become best of friends |
One of our Christmas 2006 puppies!
 |
Thank You so much for our baby!!!!!! She has made us so happy. You were right she didn't hit the ground very often and still doesn't. She has quite a personality and she rules the roost!!!! She loves people and loves to be with us, she has really made us happy. I'm sending a few pics of her when we first got her and now her first snow!!! Thank You So Much!!!!!

We just wanted to thank you for the new addition to our family. We adopted a female Parti from you on Jan 1st. We want you to know that "Millie" has fit into our family in the most perfect way. She is a wonderful addition and, I'm sure, she is loving us as much as we are loving her. Not once since we brought her home has she had an "accident" in our house. She is quite comfortable going to the door and asking to both go out and to come back in when she is finished. We want to thank you for the effort you put into her and her training prior to us getting her. This past Thursday she went to the Dr. to be spayed. All went well witrh that little venture and now she is back home and enjoying herself once again. Its only been a month since we got her but already we know that its going to be a long happy relationship between us and her. |
|
 |
Here
are some new pictures of Isabella. Her 1st birthday was Monday, and
she got her hair-do done Wednesday so we took pictures. She is the sweetest
thing ever and has the best temperment of any dog I have ever loved.
Thank you for allowing her to be a part of our lives. |
 |
 |
I
just wanted to thank you both for the puppy ya'll gave to me. I named
him Clark. He is so happy with his new home and has become very comfortable
here. I enjoy his energetic and spunky personality. He is getting along
well with our other two dogs,a great dane and a yorky. Thank you for giving
me this little bundle of joy! You said that you had side shots of him
could you send them to me so he can be registered. If not possible I was
just emailing to thank you for Clark because he is exactly the puppy I
was looking for. |
| Austin and I are doing great - he is so special
- everyone loves him and he loves everyone - my kids and one sister fight
over who has dibs on him - lol He is extremely smart and gets more beautiful
everyday if thats possible . |
