All of our giants come from some of the top bloodlines in the world. We've worked hard to insure that when we breed we will meet and exceed our expectations. We breed for quality, not quantity, so we only have 2 or 3 litters a year of these gorgeous deep rich black Giant Schnauzer puppies. Moms and dad are TRUE Giants and puppies will be BIG!!! Moms are 80 pounds and dad is around 100 pounds. All our Giant Schnauzer puppies come with full AKC papers, shots up to date, vet checked, tail/claws done, potty training started, super dog military training started from 3 days of age, and spoiled rotten... We work hard to socialize every puppy and get him/her used to every environment and different people. We also breed for gorgeous Giant Schnoodles and have just one litter a year of this unique hybrid. Do we crop ears if buyer requests it? Yes: We will get the ears done if buyer wants it done. We prefer you get it done yourself for the reasons stated below, but we can have it done by our vet before your puppy leaves if you are ok with the risks involved. If your Schnauzer's ears get cropped either by our vet or your own, I will be happy to post and tape your pup's ears for you if you are local and can bring your puppy over for weekly visits for me to do so. I can also walk you through doing it yourself. It takes about 10 to 15 minutes to post ears once you have everything set up to do so. If we get the ears done for you before you receive your puppy please add $300 to the price of your puppy. I only crop the ears on puppies that the new owner has asked us to do it on. Please keep in mind If you get a puppy that is over 8 weeks of age you can still get the ears cropped on your own by your local vet that offers that procedure. Most vets will do it up to 16 weeks of age. At our home we like to get the ears done at 6 to 8 weeks of age so pups can go to their new homes asap, but will do it up to 16 weeks of age if you pick a puppy that is that age. The puppy will be ready to go to his/her new home about 10 days later when the stitches have been removed. If you decide to have your local vet crop the ears call and ask up to what age they will crop it at. My vet will do it up until a puppy is 6 months old, although for best results and shorter posting time, before 16 weeks is best. There are many different ways to cut a Schnauzer's ears and our vet looks at each puppy individually and decides which cropping would be the best for that puppy. If you want a specific cropping style you will need to send us pictures of it to give to the vet. But if you want extra tall ears, or wider ears, you may have alot of taping and posting work in your future if the ear structure of your puppy is not meant to support that type of ear. Please keep in mind if we get the ears cropped you are obligated to stick with your chosen puppy even if you do not like the ear cropping cut. This is one of the reasons why I suggest you just get your pup with natural ears and take it to your local vet to get the ears done yourself. When a pup's ears are cut by our vet shipping your puppy may be more expensive since your puppy will be a bigger dog by the time it can be shipped. Most shipping prices are $300 for a pup up to 10 or maybe even 12 weeks and $350 if over that age, give or take a few dollars if you have a smaller or larger pup. If your pup comes with ears already cropped the ears will still be healing when you receive your puppy so take care of the ears like you would any wound until all flesh has healed completely. Please also keep in mind the ears on a Giant Schnauzer with cropped ears needs to be taped on and off for a while to get the perfect erect ear. I will gladly talk you through taping up your pets ears so you will not have to have a vet do it. It is a very simple procedure. If you are local you can set up an appointment for me to post your pup's ears for you for free, and also show you how to do it on your own... I also have a link to a how to video on taping the ears on the grooming page. All puppies that (WE) crop ears for must be paid for in full before cropping is done. I personally prefer the natural look as seen in the pic on the left below. I feel there is just nothing cuter than a 80-100 pound dog running through the yard and having those big floppy ears flying.....
Natural Ears:
Ask us about our beautiful Giant Schnoodles as well! Great hypoallergenic pets just like the Shnauzers and very large. Mom is a large Chocolate Royal Poodle and dad would be Barbosa. Photos of mom and dad are below. We get black and also chocolates in the Giant Schnoodles. Ears and tail are not docked in this breed. Schnoodles are $1000 to $1800 and come registered with a hybrid dog club. These also make great service and therapy dogs! I love the long wavy coat they get. Look at the picture at the bottom of the page to see what a Giant Schnoodle looks like as an adult. Located in the Harrisonville, Mo and Kansas City area and shipping is available if needed.
Tail, ( on Schnauzer), and dewclaws, On both breeds, will be removed at 3 days of age. All shots and worming will be up to date when you receive your giant. We stand behind our Giants 100% and guarantee them against any life threatening genetic disorders provided you feed and exercise them properly. We can ship your pup, so please e-mail us for shipping availability and pricing. Shipping rates depend on how big your pup is and if it is going to the US or Canada… Usually for a 8 to 10 week old puppy it is $300 to ship within the US. If your puppy is bigger it may be a few more dollars… So call for price of shipping on individual puppies. You will get a very nice discount on shipping if you buy two puppies and want them shipped together. You can always email or call me for more info on shipping. Our Giant Schnauzers come with full AKC papers. I do not promote breeding them for the sake of breeding, and do advice you to get them spayed or neutered for their own health, but I do not require it. I feel if you are buying a pure blooded AKC registered or a top quality hybrid you should have (FULL) ownership of your pet and should have the right to decide if you want to work your dog in shows and trials and breed it one day if it does well for you. I have full trust in the new owner to make the proper choices for their pet and would not sell a puppy to a buyer if I did not. Please do not contact me asking for limited registration for a cheaper price… Our puppies are already set at a price that is lower than other breeders ask for their AKC limited puppies. Our Giant Schnauzers and Schnoodles are born in our bedroom and raised on our 10 acre farm. They come with training started. Our Giants are beautiful loyal gentle giants. I am always available 24/7 before and after you receive your puppy to answer any questions you may have. From time to time we will donate a puppy "at cost=$500" to families needing a medical service dog. If you have a disability that requires a large medical service dog, and your doctor agrees and writes you a script for one, CLICK HERE to see our medical service dog application. We have also donated to the military and search and rescue organizations....

Bauman, Expert Obedience Training For Dogs - Winifred G. Strickland PRICING: The price of our pups is less expensive than you will find anywhere for a Giant Schnauzer or Giant Schnoodle puppy. Do not think our pups to be of less quality because of our economical pricing. We have had many of our puppies have great success in confirmation as well as agility and obedience trials. Many of our past puppies have made wonderful service and therapy dogs as well. We are not rich and so know how hard it is to find an exceptional pet at a price that wont kill your budget, that is one of the main reasons why we try to keep our prices low. We also like to keep our prices low for those who need a large medical service dog. Some of our puppies even get donated to A Non For Profit Canine Assistance Program to help those in need of a large service dog. We also will greatly discount the price on older puppies to homes that are in need of a service dog.
Our Giant Schnauzers are $1000 to $1400... Pricing depends on Quality of pup. If you want the ears cropped it costs $300 more. For instance pic of the litter, which is the best looking pup in the litter, is $1400. With ears already cropped it would be $1700.... A pup that is $1000 is still a wonderful giant and few people can differentiate these pups from the champions. A $1000 puppy would have natural uncropped ears and may be a little smaller than the other puppies, or may also be a gorgeous schnauzer as an adult but may have a unnoticeable fault. A $1200 puppy is the average Giant that may be of show quality but does not stand out as the best in the litter, then if you want the ears done on this pup it would be a $1500 puppy... Keep in mind shipping is around $300 if needed. Our giants have wonderful temperaments and make wonderful family pets / guardians. We do not guarantee show quality do to too many factors beyond our control once a puppy has left our home as well as a puppy can not be considered SQ at 8 weeks of age. Any breeder that says they have a 8 week old puppy that is show quality is lying to make the sell. In our opinion the pick of the litter is the top quality in the litter and the best possible show quality of the litter. More puppies than just the pic of the litter may be of show quality, and we do not guarantee a pic of the litter pup will place in confirmation trials… I personally don‘t care for confirmation as you will find out why quite quickly if you choose to take that route with your dog. Seems like it is a MEMBERS ONLY CLUB and very rarely do new comers place even if they have the best specimen. I prefer agility and obedience myself, but that is just my opinion, and you are welcome to get your new pup into whatever you choose to do, or just keep him/her as a cherished family pet and or service dog. Our personal dogs are medical service dogs and trained therapy dogs and that pretty much makes a full schedule for us as owners and handlers. Almost all our puppies are sold before being ready to go home. We do this by taking deposits and it's on a first come first serve basis. Deposits are great because it ensures you'll be getting the dog you want and it allows me to hold that dog for you. Before sending your deposit please get in touch with us first. We want to make sure a giant will be a good fit for you and we'll also fill you in on current availability and upcoming litters... Keep in mind this pet will be very large and so will need ongoing training. For example: You do not want a 100 pound dog with issues like chewing, unless you do not care for your furniture and shoes. All puppies chew somewhat, but can easily be trained to only chew on their toys. Make sure before sending a deposit your sure you want a giant because we're only looking for forever homes. If you ever have to rehome your giant we ask that it comes back to us and will pay for shipping if needed. All our adults are well trained in obedience and my personal Shnauzers are trained medical service dogs, (PSD). They are exceptional in intelligence, personality, and over all sound in structure, very healthy and have beautiful coat quality for the breed. Please check out our Puppy Care and More page to see grooming feeding, and general care instructions. Our Adults (BELOW) Cher: Tony's big girl and mom to Calypso, she is a soft, (American), coat, around 85 pounds. Has natural ears. Cher lives with Tony and is his very smart, well trained, beautiful, but spoiled rotten big black girl. Pick below is of her while she is nursing pups so she is thinner than she usuly is. She is a big girl.
(BELOW) Calypso aka: Jordans’ Majestic Calypso , is a soft, (American), coat dam 80 pound Giant. She did have her ears docked but I used a different vet since mine was on vacation and the vet did not crop enough of the ear for it to stand easily. So after months of posting we have decided to not put her through any corrective surgeries or any more postings. We love her just the way she is and she does not have to have the perfect erect ear to be a wonderful service dog for my son. She has champs in her pedigree that go back to the Skansen lines.
(BELOW) Shakira aka: Jordans’ Midnight She Wolf Shakira , Soft coat girl that will be a future mom if she clears all tests. CHAMPION BLOODLINES FROM BOTH THE DAME AND SIRE FROM SOME OF THE BEST SHOW BREEDERS IN THE US AND ABROAD. THE MOTHERS BLOODLINE IS WITH GLORIS ARIZONA BILL-(10 TIME WORLD CHAMPION). ALSO, CHAMPS FROM SKANSENS ON DAD'S SIDE ON THIS DAM. (PIC COMING SOON!) (BELOW) Ashanti aka: Jordan's Ashanti Of The Shadow Realm, Soft coat black girl and will be a future dam if she turns out well for us. We kept her natural ears. She is full sister to our Calypso and should be a big girl to. She was the biggest and pick of her litter, like all our adults are. (PIC COMING SOON) Below is our stud Barbosa aka: Jordans’ Captain Black Beard Barbosa. He is 100+ pounds and is a hard, (German), coat Giant Schnauzer. He has champs in his pedigree. He is a wonderful alert boy and is not as laid back as the girls. He is more active and follows my kids into the woods on hunting trips. His stature and muscular build is still growing but WOW is he a nice looking boy. I have no doubt if we decided to show him he would have championed out very quickly. But we are instead training him to be one of my son's service dogs. He is a strong guy and if you come meet him please don't bring any pet chickens... He likes to chaise and eat them... LOL...
