The mum is a gorgeous 4 year old with a great nature. This is her 2nd and final litter. The dad is 5 years old, very gentle with proven genetics. Both dogs were health checked prior to breeding.

Miniature schnauzers are non-shedding so won't leave hair around your house, plus they are hyper allergenic. They are incredibly loyal with heaps of character and are awesome around kids.

I've attached photos of each puppy plus mum and dad. I've also included a photo from Nuuna's last litter to give you an idea of what they'll look like at 4-5weeks
Currently they are 2 weeks old so have just opened their eyes. Puppies will be ready to go around Christmas time. Price is $3000 with a $500 non-refundable deposit to secure a puppy.

Freedom camping has been banned in a seaside Christchurch suburb following pleas from residents fed up with messy campers.

Southshore residents are hoping bylaw changes approved by the Christchurch City Council last week will put an end to freedom campers parking outside their homes and leaving a trail of urine-filled bottles, rubbish and condoms behind.

The council had proposed to include Southshore in a new coastal zone that allowed freedom camping in self-contained campers for up to four nights out of 30. The move was designed to get rid of a loophole that allowed campers to stay in the area for more than 24 nights without breaching the bylaw.

The new zone was approved but Southshore was excluded, and all freedom camping would be prohibited from Caspian St south from December 1.
