The life expectancy of a 9-year-old miniature schnauzer with diabetes can vary, but generally, dogs with well-managed diabetes can live for several years after diagnosis. However, the presence of diabetes may lead to complications that could shorten their lifespan. On average, a miniature schnauzer may live around 12-15 years, so with diabetes, a 9-year-old could potentially live an additional 2-5 years with proper care and management. Regular veterinary check-ups and a healthy diet are crucial to maintaining their health.

I would suggest keeping your miniature schnauzer on a dry dog biscuit diet mainly due to the fact this will prevent tooth loss later in life. Some canned food with the biscuit should be alright as long as your dog is fed mainly biscuit and the wet food is limited somewhat. If a dog is kept on a diet of canned dog food all its life, the teeth has no use and so eventually will fall out and the gums will become sore. I would suggest suplimenting your schnauzer with possibly a chicken wing occasionally instead of a rawhide chew as there are a number of chemicals used in producing the rawhide chews. If you do feed chicken wings, i would suggest cutting the wing up into three pieces as my miniature schnauzer will not eat a whole one and only eats it in pieces since they're easier to chew. Large amounts of fat in your miniature schnauzer should be avoided as it will end up leading your dog to be overweigh and numerous health problems later on. Sugar in the diet should be non-existant due to the fact too much will result in your schnauzer developing diabetes. A miniature schnauzer needs plenty of grooming so a daily brush is important, especially with the beard and eyebrows. Make sure you brush all the knots out of its fur to prevent tangles emurging. You will need to see a groomer every three months to keep your schnauzer in good condition. Schnauzers need about 45 minutes exersise per day but possibly will let you off with a shorter walk each day or a missed day if you need to. I would suggest about 30 minutes exersise per day at least because schnauzers are very energetic dogs and need a way to let out their excess energy.

It all depends on what the Schnauzer went through during early life and the size/weight/color of it.
