Dogs are family, and Schnauzers are no exception.
These adorable dogs with close wiry coats and heavy whiskers around the muzzle were originally bred to be ratters, guard dogs and all-purpose dogs on German farms.
Their versatility, protective nature, and love of family make them an excellent companion dog breed.
The schnauzer type consists of three breeds: the giant, standard, and miniature. With all of his innate skills and exceptional good looks, is it any wonder breeders felt one size was not enough?
It’s been often said that dogs are the only creatures on earth that love you more than they love themselves. Well, Schnauzers are no exception!
But sometimes, we take our furry friends and wonderful companions for granted. There are important life lessons that are sometimes easy to forget in our hectic lives, that all Schnauzer owners must never forget.
If we want to pay back the favor and give them the best life possible, these 20 important reminders should serve you well as awesome Schnauzer owners. The last one (#20) brought me to tears…
Check out the 20 Things All Schnauzer Owners Must Never Forget on the next page:

I’ve had the privilege to have been Mom for three of these fur babies. They are the sweetest and most loving dogs from tiny puppies until their last breath in my arms. I miss each one of my girls.
