| SCHNAUZER PUPPIES Description: The Standard Schnauzer is in the middle of the Schnauzer family with the Giant Schnauzer being larger and the Miniature Schnauzer smaller. They are referred to in Germany as "Mittelschnauzer", with "schnauze" meaning muzzle, and "mittel" probably referring to their size. They are attractive, robust, intelligent and playful dogs who make good companions and are generally good with children. Standard Schnauzers' ears are usually cropped in the US, but in Britain, it is illegal to crop the ears. Standard Schnauzers are medium sized, making them fine for the apartment or for a yard. They are very clean, have good habits and aren't particularly interested in wandering away from home. They are devoted to family and will strive to protect them. They are alert, spirited and eager to please. The Standard Schnauzer is loyal and very intelligent, and is accustomed to being the watchdog and guardian. They are not trustworthy with smaller animals, however, due to their high prey drive. They do get along well with other dogs and pets of the same size, however. In the past, some Schnauzers have been known to "watch over" children in their spare time. Schnauzers are more of a one-person dog, but can be accustomed to a family. An interesting fact about the Standard Schnauzer is that they generally don't have any "doggy" smell. Another interesting piece of history is that originally the Schnauzer and the German Pinscher were the same breed. Wirehaired pups would be called Schnauzers (meaning "muzzle"), while smooth coated pups were called Pinschers. Today they are bred as separate breeds, however. Upbeat and obedient, the Standard Schnauzer makes a delightful little companion with a size that is "just right". Temperament: Standard Schnauzers are robust and active. They are lively, very friendly, and affectionate. Standards are very intelligent, alert and react to quick movements, making them excellent watchdogs. They are also excellent guard dogs. Schnauzers are loyal to family and eager to please. They get along well with other people and other dogs, but not small animals, as they have a high prey drive. They are spirited, outgoing and demanding of games. Time for these dogs is simply more chances to play games. |
