We have just lost our schnauzer and want to get a new puppy by the end of July (to coincide with our holiday for training purposes). We don't want a show dog --- just another wonderful friend and walking companion. Can you help us?

I understand that you've just lost your dog and that you're desperate to have another, please get in contact with the breed club listed below. They really are the only people who can advise you on where to get your new companion from so you can be sure that you're not adding to the coffers of puppy farmers. Perhaps you may have to wait a little longer but the peace of mind that this knowledge would bring will be a great comforter.

Good luck
