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:

My 14 yr old Dolly is getting frail, sometimes I cry when I look at her, knowing she won’t be around much longer. Hurts so bad.

Our beloved schnauzer, Winston, passed on in his sleep at Camp Bow Wow, who handled the situation with care and understanding. We were in Georgia at the time and next day drove 14 hours straight to NYState to put our little friend in the back yard – miss him to this day. In compensation, we have a schnoodle and a maltipoo now that was a street rescue in 2009.

When my last Schnauzer needed to pass, I went to the vet knowing it was the last ride for Bandit.So I get to the office and ask the Dr. To give my best friend his shot and leave the room for 10 minutes, I held Bandit my 15 year old friend, while the meds did their job, this still hurts typing this, but he died in my arms, while I kissed him, and told him he was my buddy and that I loved him, I will do this again regardless of the pain because He deserved it, I dont regret one second of that day, the day my best buddy left us in body not Spirit!!
