General Information On Schnauzer Dogs 

Schnauze means muzzle in German. Early smooth-coated Standard Pinschers were crossed to obtain a wiry coat. What they were crossed with remains a matter of controversy, with claims being made for black Poodles, gray Wolf-spitz, "dog of Bologne," or even shepherd´s dogs like the extinct Schafpudel. Possibly they were all used. Whatever the source, the type has been recognized for many centuries. Artist Al-brecht Durer owned a Schnauzer-type and painted the dog in several works, including the 1492 watercolour Madonna with the Many Animals.

The Standard Schnauzer filled many needs: ratter, drover´s dog, stock tender, and guardian in the home and stables. He pulled carts loaded with produce to market and watched the children in his spare time, causing him to be called a kinderwachter. In other words, the Schnauzer was an all-around farm dog.

Originally, wires and smoothes sometimes occurred in the same litter and the "pinscher" and "schnauzer" were not considered separate breeds. In 1880 the medium-sized Schnauzer club published its first breed standard. Within ten years, the Pinscher-Schnauzer Club of Germany had separated the two coat varieties. Still called a Wire-haired Pinscher, the winner of the first classes for the breed in 1879 was named "Schnauzer." Possibly this was the source for the breed´s name.

The Standard Schnauzer was the earliest of the three varieties. Brought to the USA in 1925, he was first classified as a terrier. He now competes in the Working Group. Today he is a spirited and courageous companion as well as a fine obedience worker.

The Miniature version was created either from the Standard Schnauzer or Min-Pin crossed with Affenpinschers or perhaps both. He debuted in the show ring in 1899 and reached the States around the same time as his larger brother. He is a popular and much-loved companion dog throughout the world. His terrier background makes him alert and spunky, not a mellow lap dog. Today´s Miniature Schnauzer temperament has been softened so that he is a delightful and charming companion. He also makes a sparkling obedience competitor.

Schnauzers are lively and demanding of owners´ time for game-playing and coat care. Some people elect to have the jacket professionally groomed-leaving all their time for games. The broken coat requires periodic stripping or clipping; routine care allows for a smart appearance and a pet that does not smell doggy. The Schnauzer trim leaves an abundant beard, moustache and eyebrows, and furnishings on the legs and feet.
