About the Miniature Schnauzer

The Miniature Schnauzer is a charming and spirited small dog breed from Germany.

It was initially developed as a skilled farm dog and rodent hunter, created by combining the Standard Schnauzer with smaller breeds like the Affenpinscher and Poodle.

Today, this captivating breed is a beloved companion dog known for its friendly, intelligent nature and striking appearance, featuring a distinct beard and expressive eyebrows.

Miniature Schnauzers are excellent family pets that bond deeply with their owners and adapt well to various living situations. They are social, alert, and protective, making them great watchdogs while maintaining their affectionate and playful demeanor.

I purchased my female red miniature poodle “Diva” on Oct 2019 & she has been great , healthy & a quick learner. When we purchased her the staff was nice & answered all my questions & they were very patient with me as to which dog I wanted to bring home, They had one named Ginger which was Diva sister & I was so undecided, I would definitely recommend this place to friends & family. 👍🏼

FAQs about the Miniature Schnauzer

Are Mini Schnauzers good pets?

Miniature Schnauzers are often well-behaved, lovable dogs that are wonderful additions to most homes. They are known for their friendly, intelligent, and affectionate nature, making them excellent companions for families, singles, and seniors. Mini Schnauzers are alert and protective, which also makes them great watchdogs.

Do Miniature Schnauzers bark a lot?

Miniature Schnauzers are known to be vocal dogs and can bark more than some other breeds. Their natural awareness and protective instincts cause them to bark when they detect something odd or feel the need to warn their owners about potential hazards. This tendency might be useful because it makes them good watchdogs.

Does a Miniature Schnauzer shed?

The answer is yes, but the good news is, not a lot. A Mini Schnauzer dog is considered a low-shedding breed. This is a great perk for allergy sufferers. It should be noted that every dog sheds, but some breeds don’t do it as much as others. They do, however, require a lot of maintenance as far as grooming is concerned.

How often should a Miniature Schnauzer be groomed?

A Miniature Schnauzer should be groomed every 4 to 6 weeks. Brushing them a couple of times a week is very helpful. This works towards preventing tangling and matting.

Are Miniature Schnauzers high maintenance?

Miniature Schnauzers can be moderately high maintenance due to their grooming requirements, exercise needs, and potential for excessive barking. Regular brushing and occasional trimming of their wiry coat are necessary. They also need consistent training, socialization, and daily mental and physical stimulation to keep them happy, healthy, and well-behaved.

How long does a Miniature Schnauzer live?

On average, from a Mini Schnauzer puppy to an adult, the life expectancy is anywhere from 12 to 15 years.

How big is a Miniature Schnauzer?

A male Miniature Schnauzer puppy can grow as tall as 12 to 14 inches high, while a female can grow as tall as 11 to 13 inches.

How much does a Miniature Schnauzer weigh?

A Miniature Schnauzer male can weigh anywhere between 11 to 18 pounds, and in turn, a female can weigh as many as 10 to 15 pounds.

How to train a Miniature Schnauzer?

Training Miniature Schnauzer puppies takes patience, consistency, and bonding. It should be done as young as possible, and keep in mind that puppies have short attention spans. It’s important to keep their attention. Also, make sure to use and repeat the same words. They respond better to positive reinforcement, and it’s best to reward them with treats, but they should be hidden before rewarding takes place. Calling their name and seeing how they respond is a good start. Always pay attention to their body language to help gauge their responses, engagement, and listening to the commands.

How much should a Miniature Schnauzer eat?

Mini Schnauzer puppies should eat at least 3-4 times a day, while adult dogs should have half a cup of high-quality dry dog food two times a day.

Are Mini Schnauzers hard to potty train?

Mini Schnauzer puppies are a trainable breed. In fact, they’re one of the easiest when it comes to smaller dogs. They need consistency when it comes to training them to go potty, and also when it comes to feeding them. Dogs are a creature of habit, but this is helpful for them to be on a schedule for both you and your pet. Taking them after meals, naps, and playtime is best every few hours. If you plan to be gone for a while, put some puppy pads down within a confined space, so they have access to use the bathroom.

How often should I bathe my Miniature Schnauzer puppy?

You must bathe your pup to maintain good hygiene, along with good skin, and a nice coat. You can bathe your Schnauzer puppy for no longer than six weeks, and at the very least, once a week.
