Book Description

Comprehensive Owner's Guide September 1, 2003
A stylish Schnauzer in miniature, this German companion dog rises above the crowd with his distinctive eyebrows and whiskers. The Miniature Schnauzer reigns as one of the world’s most popular and recognizable companion dogs. Smart in appearance and attitude, this Schnauzer adds spice, salt and pepper to the lives of his master and family. Alert and protective, this terrier makes an excellent watchdog, intuitively knowing friend from vermin. Few pure-bred dogs boast such handsome looks, hardy health and well-rounded intelligence.

This useful and informative book, illustrated with over 135 color photographs, provides up-to-date, concise discussions about the breed’s history in Europe and America, characteristics and standard, as well as puppy selection, feeding, obedience training, preventative health care and showing. The new owner will welcome the author’s advice about puppy-proofing the home, housebreaking and preventing puppy problems.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book on Breed, July 24, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Miniature Schnauzer (Comprehensive Owner's Guide) (Hardcover)
Miniature Schnauzer (Kennel Club Dog Breed Series)

This is the best information I've seen yet for the miniature schnauzer. Better information on the breed than other books I have read, which just says this breed is a terrier. Explains puppy behavior very well. Easy to read. For first time dog/puppy owners, I recommend reading this book before purchasing/adopting the canine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good to know info for minis, January 20, 2010
This review is from: Miniature Schnauzer (Comprehensive Owner's Guide) (Hardcover)
I adopted a mini (7 months old) from our local animal shelter in May 2009 after my mixed breed rat terrier passed away. My previous dog was older when I adopted her and had many health problems throughout her life. I have never had a puppy before, so I didn't know what to expect. I also wanted as much medical information as possible. This book is geared towards the purebred dog, esp AKC registered, but has much info that is very helpful for any mini. My vet thinks our mini is purebred, but you can never be sure. The most helpful things I found in this book were the health information (ESP the eye disease info) and the first aid and grooming recommendations. I also own the mini book by Terra Nova. I really suggest both because the Terra Nova book goes into much more detailed info on overall characteristics. This book gives a long detailed history of the mini and a lot of info for showing your dog, neither of which I am interested in. But, the book is well worth the purchase for the eye disease knowledge alone, as it mentions more health issues than the Terra Nova did. I would definitely purchase this book again and felt it very worthwhile to read.

This is a great book to establish everything you should know to understand this very intelligent breed. It also establishes the minimum maintenance that this very special breed deserves.
