How much does a giant schnauzer cost?
Sorry, there is no such thing as a toy Schnauzer, unless you're looking at a plush toy. Schnauzers come in three sizes - Miniature, Standard, and Giant. Toyish characteristics - round head, short muzzle, bug eyes - are extreme faults in Schnauzers and no one respecting the quality and history of the Schnauzer would breed for them.
The best temperature for growing sperm is a little COOLER than body temperature. That's why the scrotum and testicles hang (unprotected!) outside the body. So if you wear tight pants and lots of warm trousers you won't have as many sperm as a Scot who wears nothing under his kilt.
The testicles drop into the scrotum because the body is too warm to make sperm optimally. The scrotum allows the body to regulate the temperature of the testicles a few degrees below that of the body temperature.
In Puberty and beyond :
They drop away from the body to be at the right temperature. The sperm needs to be at the correct temperature to stay healthy.

In Babies :
They descend into the scrotum shortly after birth (Balls drop) not at Puberty as many believe. If they have not visibly dropped into the scrotum by several months after birth then a visit to the doctor is advisable to make sure all is ok with the childs health.

Are miniature schnauzers good dogs?
A miniature schnauzer is like a standard schnauzer, but smaller. They tend to have less grooming issues since they are smaller. They don't stand but about 12-16 inches tall and weigh between 10-20 pounds. They don't shed, and love to be cuddled. They think they are lap dogs :) They love both the outside and inside....and baths too!!

Do miniature schnauzers need a lot of exercise?

What is the difference between a toy and miniature schnauzer?
A toy poodle is a recognized breed of poodle and is the smallest sized poodle you can obtain that is recognized by the countries associated kennel clubs and according to show standards if you are planning on showing your poodle.
the 'Toy' category has no lower limit; tiny toy is still a toy.
Personally I don't think their is much difference in which poodle is better for you - it really depends on your own preference. As a lot of tiny toy and teacup poodles parents are runts of the litter size wise, it is always best to have both parents hip and eye tested before purchasing from the litter and also get written confirmation from the breeder that you can return the puppy within 14 days if a health problem is detected by your Vet.
This question is like asking if you should have a friend that is 5'4" or 5', one might be slightly easier to carry but that is probably the extent of the differences.
And remember, all pure bred dogs have the potential to be genetic messes, the more extreme the dog's look the more likely it is to have health problems.
What is the gestation period for miniature schnauzer?
Generally, mini schnauzers would be under the same timeframe that all dogs are in their gestation time....which is between 61 and 64 days from mating. My own personal mini schnauzer had her first litter last November and she delivered 4 healthy pups on her 57th day. We were not expecting them so early, but all was fine and we are planning ahead with this next litter!
How much should you sell a miniature schnauzer puppy for?

Many people sell the smaller and party colored schnauzer for more than regular sized and black and silver or salt and pepper schnauzer. Also, if it got and medicine at a young age it will cost more. Where i help out we sell Schnauzers for $350-400, while at a pet shop sells for $500-700 for one.

Lhaso apso schnauzer mix traits?
Probably calm, good with people, love the outdoors, and only get aggressive when threatned. I have one they are great loveable and wonderful dogs. I so recomend this mix because when raised with kids they love them and are very calm and great lap dogs but still rugged enough to go to the lake and long road trips.

Schnauzers can be all black, all white, all silver, all liver, salt and pepper, black and silver, liver and tan, black and liver, chocolate, and chocolate and white.
This is an incorrect answer. The only colors recognized by the AKC are black, black & silver and salt & pepper. All other colors are disqualified and people should not breed for these colors.
Do Miniature Schnauzers like water?
Some do, but most don't.... or won't. Many schnauzers detest water and only accept it if it is in their water bowl. Rain is a horrific event for many of them<G>
I will say that many years ago, my second schnauzer was at the lake with my family and she jumped out of the boat and into the lake, and my husband had to jump in to save her. After I arrived there, upon hearing this, I spent the rest of the weekend trying to teach that dog how to swim. It was an impossible task because, although she did sort of paddle with her front feet, she wouldn't with her back. She sort of evolved into bouncing through the water.... as her rear sank to the bottom and then pulled the rest of her down, she would push herself off to get back up to the top, get a breath, and then sink back down again. Thereafter, we kept her out of any boat, and she confined herself to just getting her toes wet as she walked along the beach.
One spring I was planting down by our pond which still had a small bit of ice on it. Peter, my then young and inexperienced hunting dog, was with me, and suddenly saw something on the far side of the pond he wanted to chase. He went sailing into that icy pond (undoubtedly thinking that the ice and surrounding water was solid) and went totally underwater. I stood there for an eternity of seconds, remembering Sass, and praying Peter wasn't like his great-great-great whatever grandmother as I contemplated having to dive into that icy pond to retrieve him. As Peter came up splashing and then slowly navigated to shore with my encouragement, I thanked God that at least that one had a bit of swimming instinct.
So to answer your question, each schnauzer must be taken on a case-by-case basis. If you go boating with yours, I would always make sure that it is always wearing a life vest, even if it does swim. They can get tired in the water, just as we do.

Why do schnauzers eat so much?
They eat a lot because they are a bigger breed of dog. They need the energy, so they eat more, like Cocker Spaniels. Also they are very energetic, so they also eat much to get the energy to play.
How big do standard schnauzers get?
There, is toy Schnauzers and teacup Schnauzers and Standard Schnauzers and Miniature Schnauzers and Giant Schnauzers. Like, most dogs when you here people saying Standard in dogs your thinking their the biggest of that breed actually Giant Schnauzers are the biggest of the Schnauzers breed. Standard Male Schnauzers Height is: 18-20 inches.
Standard Male Schnauzers Weight: 30-45 pounds.
Standard Female Schnauzers Height: 17-19 inches.
Standard Female Schnauzers Weight: 30-40 pounds.
Some, are known to get bigger all depends on their bloodline and how much you feed them...Male's, tend to get stockier/bigger then Females.
How many times do mini schnauzers need to be fed?
That all depends on how often they eat, and what's in their food. Make sure that your dog food is high in the nutrients they really need. They will create more waste when there are more fillers in their food. For instance, If you see "Chicken By-Parts" that means they're grinding up claws, beaks, bonesm etc. While this does not hurt your dog, it's also not giving them any nutrition. Also, corn has almost no nutritional value. If one of the top three ingredients in your dog food is 'corn', you may want to consider changing it. Just like with humans, the corn is just going to go right through your dog. I hope you found this information helpful!
How do you groom the shnauzer?
Here is a link that should show you AKC standard groom for Mini and standard schnauzers. http://amsc.us/docs/grmchtsm.jpg
What is a good name for a miniature schnauzer cross with a Yorkshire terrier?
Well, I have one, and I named mine Schnoz, pronounced (sh-no-zzz)
Many people give their Schnauzers German sounding names due to their ancestry, but I've always felt that any dog's name should reflect their personality. Therefore my mini is named Rascal (registered as Double D's Li'l Rascal), which fits perfectly!
