Below is a list of MMSS dams/bitches available for litter collaborations. We require, at minimum, completed and up-to-date OFA tests as required by the SSCA on any stud used with one of our girls. If anyone is interested in collaborating on a litter, please email us with your dog's registered name, owners' names, OFA-test results, and why you think a pairing with our dogs would be beneficial to the SS breed. mcelyeasmcschnauzers@gmail.com. Please note, though all bitches are co-owned, only the breeder (Tamara McElyea) has contracted breeding rights to arrange potential breedings.
DARCIE

CH McElyea's & Kamarich's Celtic Cross RI CA DCAT FDC ATT CGC TKP FITS
Born 03/16/2021, St. Patrick's Day Litter
Hips: Excellent; Eyes: Normal; DCM: Negative
Owned by: Tamara McElyea & Kelin Ashley
Pedigree: McElyea's & Kamarich's Celtic Cross
Bio: Darcie is the first champion bitch produced by our kennel. She is as beautiful as she is smart and athletic--a.k.a. the total package! She loved being in the conformation ring to show off her substance, elegant gait, and natural glossy-black, hard coat. Like a true working dog, Darcie is just as eager to perform out of the ring as in; whether it's barn hunting, fast CAT, dock diving, or agility, she is pretty much a natural at anything she tries. She is full of energy, enthusiasm, and personality, and she is 100% up for anything you ask of her. Darcie's features would be complimented best with a smaller to mid-size black male with a more laid-back personality but an equal desire to please and one that can match her diversity of talent.
Darcie is not for physical lease; however, we're open to negotiations if a breeder were interested in collaborating on a litter for a conformation or performance puppy from her or in entering into an AKC bitch lease agreement for Breeder of Merit credit on a litter.
LEIA REY
McElyea's McSchnauzers' You Are My Sunshine RN BCAT FDC CGC ATT TKN
Born 05/05/2022, Sunshine Litter
Hips: Good; Eyes: Normal; DCM: Negative
Owned by: Tamara McElyea & Angela Webb
Bio: Leia Rey is our sunshine-girl who has as much sweetness as she has zest for life. She is up for any adventure and loves to meet new people. She has a happy, loving nature that will brighten anybody's day; like her registered name implies, she is a little burst of sunshine! Physically, Leia has plenty of fore-chest, a short loin, good bone, and a nice, hard coat that needs very little work to maintain. As Goldilocks would say, she's "not too big, not too small, but just the right size." Leia's head is her best feature, with perfect parallel plains and a proportionately rectangle skull and muzzle. She would make a great compliment to anyone looking for a more correct head, harder coat, and to size-up a smaller dog.

ILY
McElyea's To the Moon & Back BCAT CGC TKI FITS
Born 12/06/2022, Moonlit Litter
Hips: Good; Eyes: Normal; DCM: Negative
Owned by: Tamara McElyea & Ginny Casper
Pedigree: McElyea's To The Moon & Back
Bio: Ily was jokingly named after my daughter, Ily, because her registered name was based off a children's book I used to read to my kids when they were little. The famous line from the book goes, "I love you to the moon and back;" so if you didn't know it, ILY means "I love you." Those that have met Ily agree that you can't help but love her. She is a sweet, fun, and goofy girl, full of energy and personality. Ily is as loving as she is lovable; she's eager to please and maybe a bit mischievous (which just adds to her charm). Physically, Ily is on the smaller size for a female and boasts the same hard, glossy black coat as our other black SS. She is nicely squared and compact, with good bone and substance, and she has been complimented by several judges on her movement. She would be complimented well by a mid-size black male with a solid temperament and equally solid build.
Ily is not for physical lease; however, we're open to negotiations if a breeder were interested in collaborating on a litter for a conformation or performance puppy from her or in entering into an AKC bitch lease agreement for Breeder of Merit credit on a litter.
NORI
McElyea's Happy Happy Joy Joy FDC BCAT CGC TKI FITB
Born 05/17/2023, Happy Litter
Hips: TBD; Eyes: Normal; DCM: Negative
Owned by: Tamara McElyea & Emily DiSalvo
Pedigree: McElyea's Happy Happy Joy Joy
Bio: Nori lives up to her registered name. She is a happy, joyful girl who is always excited about...well, everything! She loves to run, play, learn, and be with her family. She enjoys meeting other dogs and people and going to new places. She is great company for kids and adults, alike. On top of that, she is smart, loving, and eager to please. Like her brothers from our Happy Litter, Nori has an impressive pedigree behind her of dogs that have excelled both in the ring and out. She has a nice square, compact body with good bone and plenty of substance. She has a thick, coarse coat, great reach and drive, nice top line and tail set, and perfect parallel plains. She would pair well with a stud of similar qualities, to strengthen those attributes in their offspring.
