Giant Schnauzers
Our AKC Giant Schnauzers have military super dog training started before their eyes even open. We have wonderful Giant Schnauzers that make great family pets as well as service dogs with ongoing training. This breed gets 70 to 100 pounds and they are truly gentle giants. Look on our Giant Schnauzer page for more info. We also have ACHC Giant Schnoodles on ocassion when our Schnauzer male is used for stud services with a Standard Poodle. So ask if we have any upcoming litters of those as well
Teacup Poodles
  We own and co own some very beautiful teacup and tiny toy sized, AKC registered, Poodles. They are raised in our loving family homes and all puppies come prespoiled like all tiny Poodles should! Our Teacup lines are all teacup, with nothing over tiny toy sized ANYWHERE! Our studs are 2 1/2 pounds, 7" tall to 5 pounds 9" tall and our dams are all under 5 pounds and 8 1/2" tall! So we get the smaller sized teacup & tiny toy sized Poodles. If you are looking for a TRUE teacup Poodle you have come to the right place! I strive to maintain a certain look in our Poodles so you will not find short hotdog looking Poodles here! I believe a Poodle should be well proportioned and square in build, length, and height. That is another reason why I have true teacups, because I do not breed short fat Poodles that are 7 pounds for short but fat puppies. Our Poodles are thin framed like a proper Poodle should be and square in build. That is why our Poodle stud is 7" tall and 2 1/2 pounds and our dams are 8" tall and 5 pounds or less... Instead of 8" tall and 8 pounds, (hotdog Poodle), like some breeders breed! Look on our Teacup Poodle page for breed info and puppy care.

Things to watch out for when buying a puppy:
The number one thing to watch out for is back yard breeders, big commercial breeders, pet stores and puppy mills. Some people think if a breeder is licensed with the state it is a nice place to buy a puppy. NOT TRUE! Many breeders that are licensed have 50, 100, or sometimes even 200 dogs that they are able to have by law as long as they feed and vet care for all as needed... We believe that a breeder that has any more than a handful of dogs can not give them the one on one attention they deserve in a loving family home... The breeders that have tons of dogs have to keep them in cages and so they live as unsocialized breeding machines, and not as loved family pets... We think this is the wrong way for a responsible breeder to be.... ALWAYS go with the small hobby breeder that has their dogs living in their home over these other breeders. One good way to tell a big commercial breeder is that not all their adult dogs are listed on their site. Or you can see that they have lots of dogs on their site and all supposedly live at their home/fecility... Never believe a breeder that says they have over 10 dogs that live in their home with them... That is just not possible... Here at Jordan Family Kennels we are a group of 5 breeders so even though it may look like we have lots of dogs on our site you have to consider we only have a handful each living with us. I am always open to speak to you about the dangers of many breeders out their and am availble 24/7 to talk and give advice even if you are not wanting one of our puppies but just want a honest breeders advice on where to look, what questions to ask, and what kind of person to buy from..
Why Buy A Puppy From A (Small Hobby) Breeder? I take a lot of pride in my puppies, and love to take the time to learn each and every one's personality, so it is very important that our puppies for sale go to very good and loving homes. A small hobby breeder is going to take pride and individual care in his/her breed of dog by handling the puppies for sale from birth until the time they go to their new home. Personally we also let the puppies into our home to get use to being in that environment, and those household noises. Our 5 young children love to spoil them. We play and talk to our dogs on a one on one bases everyday. Our friends that co own some of our adults, also do this. They also take the time to get to know each puppy, and only have one or two litters at one time so each puppy gets that important early stimulation for his/her best development... And the socialization keeps going on until the puppy leaves to go to their new home. We believe early stimulation and socialization of all puppies is the number one most important job of a good breeder! The adults to, should not be thought of as puppy making machines, but are true little gifts from god, and should be treated as such, and live in the home as members of the family. A breeder is also going to have more knowledge of the breed he/she is raising due to the years of experience and hard work he/she puts into each puppy he/she raises to have quality puppies for sale. A breeder can tell you the personality, bloodlines, family history of the puppies for sale as well, where a pet store will not know that information. When I was young I made the mistake of buying a puppy from a pet store. It was so timid it would urinate at the very site of someone new. This type of personality is almost always inherited, but would only be noticed if you actually took the time to get to know your dog. Which is something puppy mills and pet stores don't have time for or even care to do. Buying a puppy from a breeder is the best way to go, since you can see and visit with the puppy's parents and see how it has lived. Pet stores get most their puppies from puppy mills that can not sell a puppy themselves, so sell it cheap to the pet store. Which intern over prices the puppy that they bought for mere dollars to make a disgustingly huge profit... Poor Poor Puppies! A breeder's main goal in breeding is always to improve on their breed and in the end, aid in your search for a nice registered puppy, puppies for sale, or dogs for sale. Not all breeders are the same and some lack the basic humanity we take for granted. I have seen many breeders put their dogs out in the cold, even though they were to small and fragile of a breed to take that weather. I have seen neglect by breeders, (puppy mills), not providing shelter, food, water, or even mercy when a dog is clearly in pain. I can not tell you how upset I get when I see dogs and puppies living in wire cages and the top dogs using the restroom on the poor dogs under them... It is disgusting! That environment is in fact legal by the law statues so it is up to you as a puppy buyer to make sure you are getting a puppy from a breeder that does not have a puppy mill set up like this. Our puppies again are raised in home as I believe all puppies should be. You can always spot a puppy mill by asking if you can come see the parents and other dogs as well as the dog's living courtiers. Puppy Mills always have an excuse why you can not do this. If someone wont show you their facility or home they are no doubt hiding something. That is why I and also my friends/family that have puppies available, always welcome perspective buyers, and even those just curious, to come visit our modest homes and see for yourself how our pets are treated. Please call anytime to set up an appointment to visit all our family members that walk on all fours. Thanks, Kristina@ Jordan Family Kennels
Now what makes us more special than other breeders?
Most breeders, even some small hobby breeders have several dogs in one home or facility. We however only have a handful of dogs that live with us in our home and the other adult dogs and puppies you see on our website we co own and they also live in a family home as the only family pet or with just a few other family pets... These other breeders are not what you would call a breeder... They are just close friends and family members of mine that have my dogs as their family pets. They are always available to speak to buyers, and like us always have their homes open to visitors. I find this to be the best way to be a breeder because all our dogs live happy social lives and get tons of love and attention and each home only has one or two litters at a time, so all the puppies also get well socialized and well cared for. I am very strict on how my dogs and puppies are cared for and so all my friends and family that are in this group all go by my puppy schedule, what to feed, socializing, and vet routine. I make sure of it! I have looked far and wide for the best adults to produce the best looking puppies with the best personalities. Many breeders have their own idea of what their breed should look like. I can tell you this: My Cockers stick close to the AKC standard and I like the nice full skirts on my adults and a short nose, but not pug short... On my Poodles I like them to be thin framed, and square, with petite features and a short baby doll face muzzle, teacup size, and puppies have short colby bodies.... Cockapoos: I breed teacup Poodles with the shorter nose and square build to small sized Cockers with the shorter nose and square frame to get our perfect looking Cockapoos. You can see on our Past Puppies page that our Cockapoos look like small curly coated Cockers and not terriers like other breeders' Cockapoos do... Our Giant Schnauzers and Giant Schnoodles are from the best lines and are perfect large sized examples of their breed. I looked for the best, well known lines, and dogs that were smart and would make the best service dogs for our son. I take a lot of pride in the look we have achieved with our puppies and it is mainly from the years of searching and breeding for great quality. Most important we make sure all our adults we breed are the best temperament and mild friendly personality. We are always available to speak more on this subject so feel free to call anytime.
