There isn’t much of a difference between this Schnauzer and its bigger and smaller counterparts. They’re affectionate with their family members and great with kids. However, when it comes to strangers and other dogs, they’ll need some time to warm up to them. In fact, this purebred makes an excellent watchdog.
In addition, they have a double coat that’s medium in length and wiry. Luckily, this pooch won’t shed much, but you’ll still need to groom and brush them regularly. This will ensure their coat and skin stays clean and healthy. Also, Standard Schnauzers drool a considerable amount, so their face will need to be washed as well.
Overall, this pooch is fairly low-maintenance and makes a great family dog.
