You're right I misunderstood. Since schnauzers don't go into heat until they're almost two years old I think it's ok to breed her in her first heat. The dogs my grandparents had went into heat once a year, they were mutts.

I looked up giant schnauzer, looks like the first time she'll go into heat is at 18months with similar intervals between heats, so you'll be waiting another interval of 18 to 24 months. I can't find how long they're fertile though. I'm guessing seven years old? She'll be 49 in human years.

Hello! I say go for it! Dogs should be bred once they're two years old and if you want more than one litter, you should do one every other year up to three times.
