Hello, I thank you for your interest in a Classic Giant Schnauzer. There are 3 books that I feel are required reading for anyone interested in owning a Giant Schnauzer. 1. The World of Schnauzers by Johann Gallant - Alpine Publications $35. 1 800 777 7257 2. The Culture Clash by Jean Donaldson - a MUST READ- to understand how canines REALLY work. 3. Don’t Shoot the Dog – Karen Pryor, Animal Behaviorist BEST Training book.
I request all those interested in purchasing to answer some questions regarding your interest and experience prior to my agreeing to sell a puppy to you.

8. Please include 3 personal references including phone numbers, your local veterinarian needs to be one reference. 1. 2. 3.
10. What sex of dog are you interested in owning?
11. Ears are not cropped as these are European bred and are accepted with the down ear. Buyers may choose to have their veterinarian crop the ears if they wish. Tails and dew claws are cropped at 3 days.
I maintain the first option to buy the dog back should the owner decide to ever sell or place the dog at any time in his/her life. Health guarantee, contract agreement required at time of purchase.
I do not sell many dogs for breeding and reserve that right as a breeder. The following are some of my requirements for buyers of a breedable prospect:
The Giant Schnauzer Code of Ethics is strictly followed by myself and all buyers sign and agree to also follow this code of ethics for breeding which is included in the Classic Giant Schnauzer Puppy book that comes with each purchased dog.
I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you again for your interest. Please ask any specific questions that I may answer for you. Sincerely, Mary E. Falls S 5560 Bluff Road Baraboo, WI 53913 H 608-356-6642 evenings
