Reserve A Puppy
The Reservation Process:
We work with and get to know each family to find the best fit from each litter. Contact us for current pricing for our Giant Schnauzers, which include a non-refundable $300 deposit to reserve your puppy. When we have a current litter available, the $300 deposit is due upon the puppies first exam and tail docking at 5 days of age. When we do not have a current litter, you can pay a $100 initial deposit to be added to our waitlist for the next available litter, and the $200 deposit balance is due upon the puppies first exam and tail docking. There are no refunds given for any deposits to help ensure serious buyers only. However, deposits can be transferable to a future litter if the timing becomes difficult. Deposits can be made through Venmo, cash, or check. The full balance is due upon pick-up, and must be made by cash or check. Balance checks must clear before pickup, so be sure to mail it at least one week prior to the given pickup date.
Families who have made their deposit will receive weekly photo and video updates while you wait for your pup's pickup date!

Once you have reserved your puppy you will be sent a contract with all the information regarding what is expected for their follow up care, as it pertains to health guarantees. Our puppies only leave our home after a licensed veterinarian's approval of exceptional health. We do not crop ears. If you prefer the look of cropped ears, please look into this in your area before pickup. Cropping is time sensitive and you will want to make your appointment early on. If you are local to the Fresno area, we can direct you to offices that provide this service. Unlike tail docking, the process of ear cropping is quite painful. Ask your veterinarian the best ways to keep them comfortable following this procedure.
Bring Your Puppy Home
Local Pick Up:
We recommend picking up your new family member in person. If you’re not local to the Central Valley area (California) and are driving in from out of town, we have found the traveling period to be a special bonding time free of distractions. This travel time is great for easing your puppy into its new surroundings so it can experience your voice, touch, scent, etc. By the time you are home with your dog there is already a sense of security that has been established that will make the transition easier on them.
Out of State Pick Up:
If you live out of state, we recommend flying into the Fresno airport where we will meet you upon arrival with your new puppy ready to go with all the necessary paperwork. Giant Schnauzer puppies are just the right size to fly in the cabin with you as a carry-on. For the health and safety of our dogs, we do not fly puppies via cargo. If you are unable to fly yourself to our airport, a flight nanny can be provided at the buyers expense. All travel costs are the responsibility of the buyer.
