This breeder is a gift from G-d! I have had 5 deeply loved dogs over the years bred by Kristy…read more I met Kristy many years ago when I took my beloved Shih Tzu Daisy to her for grooming. BTW...She was and still is the absolute best small breed groomer in the Lower Mainland. Anyways, at the time we met back in the early 90's, she was just starting out as a Yorkie Breeder, and her goal was to be among the best Yorkshire Terrier show quality Breeders in North America. She researched tirelessly, she did everything right in terms of being a bonafide Breeder, (not a backyard Breeder) and went to extreme financial lengths, and still does, to show her dogs in the best shows all over the world. Only a Breeder of Champions can develop a reputation as a serious champion show Breeder of exceptional quality dogs among other show Breeders, and the dog show world is extremely difficult to penetrate in terms of being taken seriously and regarded as a credible show breeder. It takes years and years of dedication, effort, incredible hard work and extreme amounts of money. However, Kristy understood that without that reputation and acceptance, she would be nothing more than a backyard breeder, and that was out of the question. She maintained a busy grooming business 7 days a week, in order to fund her HUGE expenses, which include outrageously high veterinary bills, show expenses, handler costs, supplies etc etc., and on top of that, she regularly rescues dogs from bad breeders, most with serious genetic health issues. So, for those who balk at the high cost of a show quality puppy, and think that all Breeders are "in it for the money", WRONG! A backyard Breeder is in it for the money, Kristy is in it for the love, dedication, devotion and preservation of the breeds she is involved with. You know, many small dog breeds need cesarian sections to give birth, and the cost of that is outrageous! A simple spay costs $1500 now, so trust me, the $4,000 price for a show quality Yorkie, for example may sound high to those who don't understand the true cost of quality breeding, but after all the vet checks, shots, Stud fees, supplies, CKC admin costs, (papers etc.) trust me, the profit margin is borderline "loss" when all is said and done. All of Kristy's puppies are well cared for in her home, and are even paper trained before leaving. I leave you with this...Without people like Kristy, those breeds would be extinct due to genetic damage and pain and suffering caused by backyard breeders.

*WARNING - BEFORE PUTTING IN A DEPOSIT WITH KRISTY FOR A PUPPY.*…read more She insists on a nonrefundable $500 deposit, and she means it under *ALL* circumstances. We waited 6 months on her waiting list, only to find out that 2 litters of puppies had died! Due to the highly unusual circumstance, and some doubts about the health of the dogs, we asked for our deposit back. She refused and told us to wait for the next litter (which would have been 9 months). We didn't even know how many puppies died under her supervision, or how they died! We decided she was unreliable, since we could not be sure the next litter would even survive. We searched for other breeders and even got a puppy from one, Kristy still refused to give us the $500 back. She is also difficult to communicate with, and said I was "threatening" and "blackmailing" her for saying I was going to write a negative review. She will probably reply to this review trying to play the victim, even though she's the one who's $500 richer. Save your time and money, she's not worth the stress, there are plenty of reliable breeders out there who will refund your deposit if anything happens to the puppy that they are selling you.

I was told the puppy came with 30-day insurance, but it was never mentioned verbally that it had to be activated within 24 hours. Unfortunately, my puppy ingested goose droppings, and when I rushed to the vet, I found out I wasn't covered. The reason? The insurance needed to be activated within 24 hours. Honestly, who spends their first 24 hours with a new puppy setting up insurance instead of bonding and settling them into their new home? I find this practice highly unethical. Not only did I lose out on the coverage I was expecting, but I also had to pay the first month's premium--something that should have been waived--and missed out on a discount for new insurance. This lack of transparency has significantly impacted my trust in their integrity. I do not recommend purchasing from MySchnauzer.ca. There are other reputable breeders in the Lower Mainland, and I encourage others to explore those options.

This review is just from visiting and not from a purchase or attempted purchase…read more I visited the kennel with a friend who was here on business. I played with the puppies. They were in an outdoor pen. I don't know how old they are. They were happy and chilled out quickly after a regular puppy love attack of kisses and pawing for pets. The property and the other dogs that I saw all seem very well cared for and maintained well. I met with the owner and spoke with her for awhile. She's been in this business for over 30 years and is passionate about what she does. The kennel is available by appointment only. They will house your dog for you while you're away from home and care for it as well as offer breeding services for German Shepherds. If you want to adopt a puppy or a retired dog, they will allow the dogs to be adopted by approved homes only. All puppies come with a Canadian Kennel Club Registration, vet check, tattoo, first vaccinations and deworming, 6 weeks pet insurance, lifetime breeder support, and a lifetime health guarantee. International shipping is available.

This breeder is in it only for money, PERIOD! I got a pup from her a few yrs ago and she doesn't…read morenot socialize them at all. The adults are all in kennels barking constantly and the pups are kept in a building like a barn, alone with their litter mates. I know a trainer who has had to work with at least 5-6 of her dogs due to fear and aggression. Our dog isn't aggressive but really fearful of things. Sandy comes across as caring when you show up to buy a dog, but in reality, she only cares about the money. I could tell you about another pup from there who was only 4-5 months when the owners tried to get training to help her but no one could even get close, she was so aggressive. Sandy likes to blame that on the new owners ut she knows its her shameless breeding practices that cause this. I never met my dogs mother, she wouldn't show her to me, hmm, I wonder why. DO NOT BUY A PUP FROM SANDY ANDERSON AT WOODSIDE GERMAN SHEPHERDS, let her stick to her shows with her show dogs. Make her stop breeding for sales of pups.

To make it worse, the puppy was a bit older as she couldn't sell it and I was still willing to pay the original value because it included delivery. Complete waste of time and my kids are crushed. I had asked her where I can send a deposit and she didn't respond, I'm glad I didn't send it now.
