Schnauzer Breed
Miniature Schnauzer really isn't a lap dog. They are far too active and prefers running around at high speed and digging, although they love people and want to be with them. The nature is to be sweet and loving, but not timid. Are an excellent watch dog because they are very alert.
Barking is a preferred hobby. You can train him or her not to go crazy when the doorbell rings, but realize that is a normal thing with this breed. They are more inclined to bark than to fight, because of the watchdog nature, any outdoor-based Miniature Schnauzer will create problems with your neighbors.
This breed is a very
smart breed and easily trainable. Have the ability to learn, added to there high energy level, make them great in agility, walking dog trials, and obedience competitions. They do need daily exercise, and a fair amount of it. Not going to be happy with a quick walk around the block.
Schnauzer’s
grooming needs are fairly extensive. They need regular clipping or brushing. Pets are usually clipped because hand brushing is a time-consuming effort typically reserved for show dogs.
Clipping will soften the coat, though, so if you like the hard texture, resign yourself to stripping it.
