Mini schnauzers are still small enough to be portable but slightly bigger for little boy adventures... I met a puppy mini schnauzer the other day and he was so cute... I dunno

Yorkies small size is my only turn off from them. Jackson is abnormally large at 19lbs but I wish the "average" or "standard" was closer to 10lbs vs. under 7lbs. Just my personal preference for the 8-12lb range. I know it happens but it's not the norm within reputable breeders breeding to standard.

Schnauzers can be great but OH MY every single one I used to dogsit for was a SHRIEKER. *Every* single one was dog reactive and wouldn't simply bark at other dogs on walks or in apartments, etc, but shriek high pitched. Whew. They were great inside the house though lol.

I think my yorkie love rubbed off on my son too. Last night he wanted to watch “yorkie videos” and if you ask him what type of dog he wants he says yorkie . I even showed him some pictures of mini schnauzer puppies and asked if he liked those puppies and he said “no, just yorkies”. So I guess we are getting a yorkie

I’m owned by my Yorkie ...
He’s at my side no matter what ❤️
