New Year’s Puppies Are Coming
Upcoming Miniature Schnauzer Litters
Magalia Crest is a small family breeder in Magalia, California. Here you’ll find our planned Miniature Schnauzer litters, roughly when we expect puppies, and how the waitlist works. We place puppies with families throughout Northern California and with approved homes across the United States.
Zara & Archie’s Upcoming Litter
Puppies expected around October 30, 2026
Puppies are expected to be ready for their new homes around New Year’s.
Now accepting early inquiries.
We’re excited to announce Archie and Zara’s upcoming litter of Miniature Schnauzer puppies. This pairing may produce a variety of colors and markings. Puppies will be raised in our home, socialized from an early age, and prepared for their forever homes.
Timing is an estimate, not a guarantee. We don’t promise litter size, colors, eye colors, or a set number of available puppies — we share confirmed details with waitlist families as soon as we have them.
