Schnauzers have great personalities are highly intelligent, inquisitive and can be mischievous. They do have a strong sense of self-dignity and may remember and begrudge mistreatment (intentional or unintentional) so it may be a good idea to watch when young children interact with the dog/s. My brother's Schnauzer would eat ANYTHING except lemons and he gave them a hardy try. He once ate an entire bowl of homemade hot sauce with a 1/3 ratio of jalapeno to tomato. They are great watch dogs!randomoutburst wrote:Thank you all for your suggestions, guys! There were a lot of suggestions that fit the bill, but ultimately my hubby and I have decided on the Standard Schnauzers. They look like they will best fit our lifestyle and needs, and as an added bonus they're gosh darn gorgeous.
Tass, you mentioned Pembroke Corgis - my hubby grew up with them and while he did indeed love them as his children, he does not want more. Besides, his Corgis live next door with his parents so he can and does still visit them. :)
We have found a breeder in the area with puppies and hope to be able to adopt two of the litter. Waiting on a response from the breeder as of now to see when we could meet with them to see the puppies and, of course, ask LOTS of questions before we make a final decision.
I'm with Joe. Generally speaking, we prefer our pets to...er, uh well, you know...people.joe817 wrote:God Bless you and your husband random!
You will have a loyal and loving friend for life. From your description that dog was abused, and you rescued it. WELL DONE!
