We can't tell you how sweet natured and adorable Tessa is. Everywhere we go, people talk about how friendly and sweet she is. She barely barks - the rumour that schnauzers are "yappy" dogs is certainly not true with Gambles' schnauzers! And she is SO beautiful! Her colours are gorgeous, and unique. I will bombard you with pictures in the next day or two! She just got groomed by Jean again and her vet commented on how great her grooming looked! So glad you put me in touch with her. Tessa looks a lot like her little Minnie Pearl.
We are so glad we found you and your beautiful pups. We still look at your website every day, and we see you're expecting more! We may well send some people your way, who are looking for a puppy. We strongly believe your quiet calm house and the good nature of your adult dogs is directly responsible for Tessa's wonderful calm, quiet, gentle, loving personality.
I'll send some pics soon.

After some research my husband and I decided upon a miniature schnauzer as a new family pet. Looking on the internet I found Sandra Gambles web site. We called and asked if there was any pups available, luckily for us there was. We had several conversations with Sandra before Sandra was comfortable letting one of her pups travel so far from home. We liked that because it showed us that our new pup would come from a caring home. Because we wouldn't be able to get to Canada earlier my mom in law went to see Sandra and visit. After the visit my mom in law was very impressed with Sandra's home, the pups are born and live in one of Sandra's bedrooms. I would say spare bedroom but the room is really for the pups so not spare at all. We arranged to pick up Millie the very first day in Canada. We met Millie in Sandra's living room, it was love at first site for me. Sandra's pups are all registered with the Canadian Kennel Club and micro chipped. We also received a puppy pack with things we would need immediately for Millie, this was a surprise to me because I wasn't expecting anything like this. Millie is 10 months now and she is a beautiful dog with a huge personality. She has made my life richer and I am thankful that Sandra took a chance on us.
Anyone considering a dog can't go wrong with one of Sandra Gambles Miniature Schnauzers.

Dear Sandra;
Just a quick note to tell you how happy I am with the Miniature Schnauzers I have received from you. What impressed me most was the cleanliness of your home and the professionalism you have shown from the initial contact to the finalizing of the paperwork upon pickup of my two puppies. The love and caring during the first seven weeks of their life shows in the behaviour and personality in my dogs. The puppy gift bag was a wonderful surprise and saved me from rushing out to buy everything the first day. I also wanted to let you know that my registration came in the mail today. I was surprised it came so fast. I now know why it is always better to look for a dog through a reputable breeder.
I am recommending you to my friends. They really like Miniature Schnauzers after seeing mine!
Thanks again

Sandra,
Our wonderful little Tripper turned a year old on Good Friday, and what a terrific year it has been. From the first time I saw him on your web site, the phone call to learn more about him, our visit to your home to meet him and finally, the day we brought him home. Thank you for the wonderful experience and opportunity to have such a great addition to our family. When I found your website and followed up with a phone call to talk to you about any up coming litters, I immediately felt the connection in the love of owning Miniature Schnauzers.
After our conversation about Tripper when you reserved him for us, I was thrilled to receive the Miniature Schnauzer card in the mail and took it everywhere I went and showed everyone. (I have also shared your website with everyone and many other Mini Schnauzer owners now know where their next pup will come from.) This card was followed by pictures and videos weekly, which again got sent to everyone in my email address book!
The day we went to meet Tripper, I was very impressed by my experience. When we arrived, having previously owned Mini Schnauzers, I expected a frenzy of barking, but all was quiet, if it weren't for the Schnauzer silhouettes on the front lawn, I would have thought we were at the wrong house. When we met Trippers Mom and Grandfather, the love and loyalty of these dogs towards you was evident, and both these dogs are absolutely beautiful! When we entered the puppy room, it was precious to see each litter in their own enclosure. I was very impressed with the area that each litter had as their own and so much fun to watch the antics with their brothers and sisters, playing, sleeping and each with their own personalities already so evident. (It is now hard to believe how shy Tripper was that day.) The overall cleanliness of the room, the litter and the litter bed was very impressive.
When we brought Tripper home, we never had a problem with him crying through the night, he was house trained in 3 days, we started leaving him for short periods immediately, and his reaction was never barking or crying, he would simply lay down and rest. The puppy kit we received proved to hold many of Trippers favourite things as well as some very helpful tools for us as puppy owners.
Tripper has proven to be a very intelligent dog. He loves life and everything in it (we tease that we should have called him Jackpot, because we all hit the Jackpot when we found you and your beloved dogs.) Tripper loves life, and has such a great enthusiasm for everything and everyone. Thank you again Sandra, our Day Tripper (his registered name) keeps us active, we are always laughing and we constantly see how proud he is. I love the way he prances around so proud of himself and that tail never stops wagging.

Dear Sandra Gamble
Just a short note to share some of our daily experiences with our two miniature schnauzers named Jackson (who we have now shortened to Jack) and our female Pepper.
Our day begins at about 5:30 am from Monday to Friday… Pepper, Jack and I go for our morning walk together. Now we would not normally do this except that I have to be at work for 6:30 am. Jack and Pepper sleep in their kennels at night and during the day when we are not home. We feel this is the safest for them as they both like to get into a little mischief when they are out. Pepper was the one who became the Alpha dog very quickly and she obviously taught Jack all of the naughty things to do at first. Now when I say naughty I don’t mean anything that they would get into trouble for… just silly puppy things.
The one thing that both Doris and I noticed was how fast Pepper (the female) would learn to obey commands. For example the sit, stay, down and come commands she had mastered in weeks… Jack… well let’s say he was slower on the uptake. It was almost as if he felt it was taking far too much effort.
We would like to mention that the experience we had in purchasing our pups was very well handled… when we had the opportunity to go and see the pups it was handled very well. The area where the pups were kept was clean and odour free which indicated to us that the pups were well looked after. When the day finally came when we could pick up the pups… we were very impressed with how well the paperwork was handled and how thorough the information was. All the preliminary shots were done and vet information was given to us along with the instructions as to when they should have their next vet visit. Also, we felt it was a very nice touch that you had given us enough food for the two of them till we could get our own.
When we got them home we had a kennel ready for them with their little puppy toys. Very quickly we went and got a second kennel so they would each have their own little space. We have found that this breed of dog is exceptionally clean and do not shed which is a plus for us.
We have recommended to others that if they are looking for Miniature Schnauzers to call you.
Enjoying our New Family Members,

To Miniature Schnauzer Lovers,
We are the parents of 2 loveable Miniature Schnauzer. I knew the breed because of 3 other Schnauzers in the family and it was a breed I wanted. I wish I had done more research into the breeder with the first one. The first one we fell in love with instantly but the breeding of Dudley is not to the standard of Sandra’s puppies. I learned the hard way. With my research and talking to someone who had gotten a puppy from Sandra, I decided Schnauzer # 2 would come from Sandra. And I have not regretted this decision. Elmo is definitely the better bred dog of my 2 boys.
When we got Elmo, there were many puppies in Sandra’s home along with their parents. You would not know that from walking into her lovely home. It was clean and quiet. Sandra does everything she can to keep her home clean and health for the puppies. They are her babies and she loves every one of them and wants them to go to a good home. She breeds her dogs to a very high standard. People have noticed the difference between the breeding of my boys. This reflects directly back to Sandra.
With the first telephone call to Sandra, she makes sure her babies are going to a good home where they will be loved and well taken care of. Even when we came to pick out Elmo, she pick up one of the puppies that she held back and felt would not match our out going personalities. This puppy was very shy and would have been very overwhelmed by Dudley and my family. Elmo was the first puppy I picked up and fell in love instantly. We all felt that he was the one. He is curious and loving. He loves other dogs and people. At puppy class he wanted people play not puppy play because he gets that at home. He is emotionally a more stable dog that his big brother.
I love that Sandra runs her breeding business with such high standards and it very thorough. And I loved the little extras that come home with the puppies, shows that she really cares.
Thank you for the opportunity of parenting one of your puppies.

Dear Schnauzer lovers and Schnauzer lover wanna be's.
Our experience with Sandra was nice right from the beginning. We asked if we could come and meet our little gal and we only gave one day's notice and she accommodated us. When we arrived we could see the care and attention that was paid to the dogs was A1.
The package that Sandra put together had a number of fun things in it for us. She supplied some food for our little gal so that we didn't have to worry about getting her the same food right away. The bag included some surprises and she will have one for you when you pick up your puppy too!
Morgan has been clipped now three times and the last time in Florida the groomer asked me where I purchased the dog as she said that her coat was so nice and soft and she was a really nice puppy. She is the owner of 3 schnauzers herself so I took that as a compliment.
Our first visit to the veterinarian went very well. After the exam she said that we had a very nice ,healthy puppy. I guess the proof is in the pudding!
We would recommend Sandra Gamble as a breeder to anyone, and we wish all who read this many happy days with your little puppy too!
