Miniatures schnauzers are easily trained, they excel quickly and want expansion, often preferring sequence training themselves.

Miniature Schnauzers (the only way it can be white is if it's a miniature) are extremely even tempered, stubborn at times but very good with families...highly intelligent, however when left to their own devices they can become very destructive and exhibit a number of behavior issues also they can become depressed easily compared to other breeds.

Miniature schnauzers were working dogs and by all means the breeding very more selective of their personality characteristics & health rather than their look hence the variations of color and coat texture still being prevent.

She'll figure out very quickly that an untrained mini schnauzer isn't going to work out...hope he finds a good forever home.

When inexperienced breeders take over we're really seeing the beginning of the ruining of the breed.

Whites are also very high maintenance, miniature schnauzers if properly cared for are high maintenance dog also.

I'm heartbroken here schnauzers make the best family dogs when provided for properly and when they come from good breeding...
Don't worry about the misquote, your info is awesome. I never researched them but love gaining knowledge so thank you. Yes her white one is gorgeous... Too bad she is hardly groomed. I understand where you are coming from with your post, its a kind of frustration because we want so badly to help. It's the black male that is nippy but mainly to her youngest daughter. Makes you wonder about how well socialized a litter would be from her. Perish the thought.
