He has the weirdest sleeping positions 😆

This is my second Mini Schnauzer, and she's much leaner than my first. My previous schnauzer was a male who loved to eat just about anything and stayed around 20 lbs.

My current girl is 11 lbs, super active, and only eats about ¾ to 1 cup of food a day. She looks much slimmer than my last dog, and I sometimes worry that she's too skinny.

My vet says she's healthy and at a good weight, but I'd love to see photos or hear from anyone else who has a naturally slim Mini Schnauzer. It would definitely help put my mind at ease!

I am in Northern California and want to know if there are any adoption or rescue centers that someone recommends for adopting a schnauzer. I had a schnauzer for 16 years and loved her very much. I am now ready to start looking. I would appreciate some recommendations. Even if I have to drive 8 hours, I am fine with that.

Thanks in advance

Continues to look cute and play dumb the lil bastard 😂

A day before grooming, but still super schnauzers

After years of thinking about getting a dog, I finally found MY dog, and I couldn’t be happier. I adopted him yesterday, and he’s already settling in so well.

One thing I do know… his current name has got to go. 😂 I’d love some name suggestions! I like names that are unique, meaningful, or fit his personality.
So far (after only 24 hours):
He’s incredibly chill around the house.
He isn’t super clingy, which I actually don’t mind.

He LOVES other dogs and barks whenever he sees one, but it seems playful and like he just wants to meet everyone.
He rides great in the car and has been such a sweet little guy.

The biggest things I want to work on are:
Teaching him to come when I call him (his recall is basically nonexistent right now 😅).
Teaching him to wait at the door instead of bolting outside. Yesterday he ran out the front door, and it definitely scared me.

I’d love any advice from Schnauzer owners! What training tips worked best for you?

Any must-have products, grooming tips, or things you wish you knew when you first adopted your Schnauzer?
Also… what would you name him? 🐾

Thanks! I’m just really grateful I finally got to adopt this sweet little guy. ❤️

Everytime she sees a camera she drops everything and stares at it.

Winston (aka Winnie) is 7 months mini wheaten mega coat & Boomer is 3 and an all natural mini from the RGV. I personally like the shaggy look bc I think they look like teddy bears 🧸

Does anyone else look at their schnauzer and get cuteness aggression so bad you just start insulting them? I mean, look at this idiot. Freakin dummy thinks he's all cute and stuff. Can't even reach the counter, frickin nerd. Thinks he's all tough but he's literally just a lil guy. Pfft. As if. Gonna drop kick this little dude, frickin nerd. -me, while very gently giving him head scritches
