Dr. Karl M. Barth

Karl was a friend that I dearly loved talking with. Our family had 3 of his schnauzers and Karl and those dogs hold a very special place in my heart.

We're very sorry to hear about Dr. Barth passing. We met him in 2000 when we wanted to have a puppy after the death of our last Schnauzer and having had Schnauzers since 1970. He trusted us to have Katie who earned her Excellent agility title and was a loyal companion for 15 years. Katie gave birth in 2001 to April who had a brief show career and was a perfect and fun companion until she died two weeks ago. Both dogs are sorely missed. Dr. Barth was a very conscientious and dedicated...

I will always miss Karl's, "HA" and his particular brand of truth.

We became friends late in his life when he introduced me to a little black/silver schnauzer that he and the Lindboms had produced. We formed a special bond years later when Zoe passed suddenly of IMHA. He helped me heal...even Kromie gave me a hug.

Today I am forever grateful to Karl and DeAnn (DeNel) for entrusting me with Izzi. She brings me four-legged joy every day.

I will really miss...

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of such a wonderful man. Because of him, I fell in love with Schnauzers and was lucky enough to have one of his favorites (Gretel) placed in my home in the late 80's/early 90's. Blessings and peace for his family.
