How much do your Miniature Schnauzers cost?

Our dogs are fully health tested, have no history of disease, and are guaranteed for years in your home. We breed for health and temperament, with the aim that our puppies will live long, healthy, happy lives. We feed quality foods, raise puppies in our home, and make sure all their veterinary needs are cared for. In other words, our puppies are OUR family until they are YOUR family! The average cost for a GFCK puppy is $3500.

Are your dogs all service dogs?

GFCK dogs are bred with Service Dog work in mind. With careful selection and testing, we are able to choose a number of puppies to be Service Dog Prospects. While we do not guarantee these dogs will go on to be Service Dogs, many have done so successfully. If a puppy family is specifically seeking a PSD, we are very careful to place the best dog for the job with them.

The remainder of the puppies go to loving family homes.

What type of service can a Miniature Schnauzer or an Airedale Terrier perform?

Miniature Schnauzers and Airedale Terriers make excellent Psychiatric Service Dogs (PSDs). They are in tune with their people and have a desire to please. They will go above and beyond to perform their tasks and care for their people.

Why an Airedale or a Mini Schnauzer instead of a Golden Retriever or a Labrador?

Miniature Schnauzers and Airedales are considered hypo-allergenic breeds, meaning they produce very little allergenic material. People with mild to moderate allergy to dogs are likely to be able to comfortably live with Airedales and Miniature Schnauzers.

Mini Schnauzers are a much smaller and therefor more portable breed. They do very well in apartments and can exercise within their own home.

The personality and energy of a Schnauzer or an Airedale is very different than that of a Lab or Golden. Many people prefer the personality of a terrier. And terriers are excellent at working with and for their person, including Intelligent Disobedience as necessary.
