About Regency

Regency Miniature Schnauzers is located in Los Gatos, California.

We offer many services, including the sale of show dogs and superior-quality companion puppies.

Regency’s founder, Beverly Verna, began breeding and showing Miniature Schnauzers way back in 1972. Over 179 AKC champions have been bred at Regency, and show dogs bearing the Regency prefix can be found in just about every country in the world. Since her passing, Regency has been run by her son Chris Verna and handler, Alberto Montilla. 

As a member and Governor of the American Miniature Schnauzer Club, Regency holds the club’s Code of Ethics in high regard. The Code of Ethics states (in Part) that we will breed to improve the conformation, health, and temperament of the Miniature Schnauzer in order to further the integrity of the breed. 

Regency’s inception was in Santa Clara, California where Beverly and her family lived for 17 years. What began as a hobby has turned into a multi-faceted business, but it was Bev’s love for the Miniature Schnauzer breed and the pleasure of the company of the dogs that have kept it going so long and so well.
