Liver Schnauzers California Breeders Raise Can Make Great Canine Companions

By Marie Hall


Pets are important to their owners. They are ways for parents to teach their children about responsibility and accountability that is part of pet ownership. Dogs and cats are close companions for shut ins who may not interact with another living being for days at a time. Because pets are such an integral part of a household, it's especially important to choose one that is compatible with it. For many people that means the liver Schnauzers California breeders sell.

With their tufted eyebrows, full beards, and short stocky frames, the schnauzer is delightful to look at. The dogs were first bred in Germany some time before the 1500s. Their main function was to control vermin, herd livestock, and guard the farmer and his family from the criminal element. Farmers often took them along as guards when they brought their crops to market. Schnauzers are placed in the working group by the American Kennel Club.

A standard size Schnauzer will be a little less than two feet tall and weigh slightly less than fifty pounds when it is fully grown. They have an average life span of 13 to 16 years. A Schnauzer will have a coat color of black, salt and pepper, or liver, which is a chocolate version of the salt and pepper. Their coats are wiry and dense, but soft underneath. Grooming regularly is a necessity with their beards brushed out every day.

The Schnauzer is known for its intelligence. These dogs are imaginative, inventive, and curious. This has a good and a bad side. They are not above getting creative is it means getting their own way. A Schnauzer needs an owner willing to keep the upper hand in the relationship.

Being protective is in a Schnauzer's blood. He will bark and be ready to defend his home and family, but won't have trouble greeting a stranger who has been welcomed into his home. As with every pet, the Schnauzer must be socialized early in order to keep them from becoming nervous and shy with humans.

The Schnauzer makes good pets for families with children. They are generally patient and tolerant of youngsters and certainly have enough energy to keep up with even the liveliest kids. It is still important to make sure no young child is left alone with a Schnauzer or any other animal. A responsible adult should always be nearby to ensure the safety of both the child and the dog.

This is a healthy breed. They can develop eye problems and hip dysplasia, which are common canine ailments, however. The breeder should be able to give you a copy of the health clearances for the parents of the puppy you have chosen.

Training a Schnauzer should be easy because he is so smart. They also have minds of their own and aren't usually interested in repetitive instruction. Crating them to house train them is the the most effective way to teach acceptable behaviors. All in all the Schnauzer make a great addition to households and great companions for their owners.
