The Miniature Schnauzers free puppies are a robust and active breed
very much like their cousin the Standard Schnauzer. They grow to a
maximum height of 14 inches and are almost square in shape as their
height and length is almost the same. Their ears when they are not
cropped are V shaped and close to the head which is rectangular in
shape. The muzzle is blunt and the whiskers are thick. They have a well
arched strong neck with the skin tightly binding the throat area.
This breed has a double coat with the inside one being close to the
body and the outer coat being wiry and hard. You must pluck the tail,
chest, ears, neck and head. If this dog is being entered in a show the
hair should be left to grow so that the judges can see the texture of
the coat. The coat is colored fully black, silver and black, pepper and
salt while the skin is always uniform no mater what the color of the
coat is.
This is an obedient breed though it is active and spirited and loves to
run about. Is ever ready to please its owners and should be kept well
exercised and not allowed to become overly aggressive. The Miniature
Schnauzers should be given obedience training while they are still
young so that they follow this trait into adulthood. If training is
delayed they fall into a set pattern of having their own way.
