Welcome to Dinsdale Standard Schnauzers

For more then 20 years we have owned, bred and shown our dogs to Conformation, Obedience and Agility Titles.  Our Standard Schnauzer achievements include Top Standard Schnauzer in Canada, Best In Show, top five in both Obedience and Agility.  Dinsdale dogs have completed Canine Good Neighbour certification, St John Therapy dog certification.  We are incredibly proud of the number of our owners that have taken their Dinsdale Schnauzers and titled them in the Show Ring and the dog sport venues of Agility, Rally O, Obedience and Tracking titles in Canada and the USA

Natural Ears:  Traditionally the Schnauzer ear has been surgically cropped and trained to stand in an  alert manner. This practice of cropping ears has however fallen into disfavour with the majority of countries around the world.  I am not going to argue the rights vs. wrongs of the practice of cropping.

  Foster Program:  In order to provide each of our dogs in our home with the attention that is deserving we are forced to maintain a very small breeding pool.  What we have done over the years is to place some of the dogs in our breeding program into private homes.

Breed Info:  The Standard Schnauzer is a medium sized (17-20"at the shoulder) robust dog, they weigh more (35-48lbs) then one would think at first glance.
