Founded in 2016 with a passion for my fur-baby Pippin. I want to share my experience, joy, and love of Miniature Schnauzers. This site is dedicated to the care and well-being of these great companions. It is also intended to support anyone with a baby Schnauzer with additional information and tips on care and training.

All About Miniature Schnauzers:

The standard says it all! “The typical Miniature Schnauzer is alert and spirited, yet obedient to command. He is friendly, intelligent, and willing to please. He should never be overaggressive or timid.”

Miniature Schnauzers are sweet, smart, loving, and loyal. Their signature eyebrows and beards give them a very distinct look. They are hardy little dogs, originally bred to be ratters and companions on German farms. They make excellent companions because they are obedient and quick to learn, extremely devoted, very playful, and very affectionate. Their alertness and sometimes vocal nature make them an excellent watch/alert dog. They delight in chasing (and sometimes catching) small prey; therefore, a fenced yard or on-leash walks are recommended.

Miniature Schnauzers are as much at home in the city with a moderate amount of exercise as they are in the country where they appear tireless. They adapt easily to any change of condition or climate. They need to live as a part of their family, going where they go, doing what they do. Sleeping on the bed, or in his own, being near their people is their greatest joy.

The Miniature Schnauzer does not shed, so they often can be enjoyed by people who are allergic to other breeds of dogs. In return, you must keep them groomed regularly to maintain their handsome appearance.
