Amy Shaffer - Crivitz Standard Schnauzers LLC

Crivitz Standard Schnauzers LLC has been breeding standard schnauzers in Crivitz, Wisconsin since 2001, when owner Amy Shaffer established the program with a show puppy from the renowned Charisma Standard Schnauzers line. Located in Northeast Wisconsin about an hour north of Green Bay, the kennel is rooted in a decades-long commitment to preserving the pepper and salt standard schnauzer.

Amy's path to the breed began with Irish Setters, which she showed to a conformation championship before allergies led her to seek a lower-allergen alternative. That search brought her to the standard schnauzer and to mentorship under Constance and Trevor Adel of Charisma Standard Schnauzers. In 2014, Crivitz Standard Schnauzers took over the Charisma breeding program, continuing a lineage that traces back to multiple Best in Show and National Specialty winners.

The program carries an impressive show record, having produced titleholders including a multiple BIS BISS GCHP Platinum dog and several Grand Champion Silver designees. Frozen semen from these dogs is made available to other established conformation breeders. For those searching for standard schnauzer puppies in Wisconsin with deep pedigree roots, Crivitz Standard Schnauzers represents a program built around careful linebreeding, conformation, and long-term preservation of the Charisma legacy. Amy holds the AKC Breeder of Merit designation, reflecting her commitment to responsible breeding practices within the sport.
