They like to be close to the heartbeat and face of the ones they love.
You could try to breed a giant with a mini but it probably depends on their first impression and if the miniature is intimidated by the giant. Also, prob depends on the gender, and which is which.

It all depends on the size, but mainly a lab would be faster, but a schnauzer is more rambunctious.... and maneuverable, so he has advantage in the corners.
All three Schnauzer breeds (Miniature, Standard and Giant) are related to the German Pinscher. The German Pinscher is the ancestor of the Miniature Pinscher and both the Miniature Schnauzer and the Standard Schnauzer are essentially wire-hair versions of the Miniature and German Pinschers. The Doberman came after all the other Pinschers and Schnauzers and while some German Pinscher blood was used to create the breed so were many other breeds such as the Weimaraner, Rottweiler, possibly the Great Dane (which is a German breed) and possibly the Greyhound and other breeds and mutts as well. The Giant Schnauzer was created by crossing Standard Schnauzers, German Poodles, Bouvier des Flanders, Great Danes and various rough coated sheep dogs and drover dogs. The German Pinscher and the Standard Schnauzer are the oldest, with artwork as late as the 1400's depicting German dogs that had similar looks to these 2 breeds. Both the German Pinscher and Standard Schnauzer, along with the Miniature Pinscher and Miniature Schnauzer became official breeds in the late 1800's. In developing the Standard Schnauzer (and subsequintly the Miniature Schnauzer) from the German Pincher the German Poodle was probably used too.
No. This weight is perfectly normal for a miniature schnauzer. If your schnauzer gets overweight, take him/her for a run or a walk daily and only give him/her treats or "cookies" when they "do their jobs" outside. Only feed them at about 8:00 in the morning and at 6:30 in the evening. They can gain weight easily, so make sure they don't get excessive amounts of treats. Nope. . . . This is the weighs the adult Minature Schnauzer weighs. . I have a Minature Schnauzer and she is 17 pounds and she is only 1 1/2 years old so yeah this is a good weight for the Minature Schnauzer . . :-)
Mine lived for 12 years then had a kidney disease and we had to put her down. So, maybe 15 years or so?
They are about 8-13 inches in height and 10-16 pounds, unless under or over weight This is an incorrect answer. According to the breed standard, Miniature Schnauzers are 12 - 14 inches, anything under or over are faults. There is no such thing as a "toy" Schnauzer.
yes after six months it is okay but it is unusual so take it to a vet and let him check it out and moniter it carefully i hope it goes well
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.
In The Sims 2, a Cocker Spaniel and Miniature Schnauzer puppy will enjoy playing with toys, such as balls or chew toys, and will appreciate attention from their owners through petting and playing. They thrive in a loving environment, so regular interaction and care, including feeding and grooming, are essential for their happiness. Additionally, they may enjoy exploring their surroundings and engaging in activities like fetch.
To make a miniature version of a large breed dog will take years to do. You just breed the runt of the litter with another runt of the litter and continue to do so with other runts. And even then it may not work.
No. Schnauzers do not shed their fur. A schnauzer can sit on your lap while you are wearing a tuxedo or a wedding gown and afterwards you will not fine a single one of his hairs stuck to your clothing. A schnauzer can sit on your couch all day long everyday for a year and you will not find one dog hair on your couch. Our schnauzer's beds don't have any dog hairs in them. The flip side of this is that schnauzers have to be groomed every 3 weeks or so. They should get a "schnauzer cut" which is a specific way of cutting his hair to give him a buzzed back, fluffy legs, long beard, feathery eyebrows and a "skirt" around his underbelly. Frequent grooming can be expensive, but you can learn to groom your schnauzer yourself by studying YouTube videos and investing in the proper equipment.
