You never need an alarm clock. Your Schnauzer will be that alarm clock.
💯💯💯💯😂😂⏰
Yes. Yes they will.
Even on your day off Saturdays and Sundays... SMH
Schnauzers are the BEST!!!! I know, have had 6 and counting. 🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕
That’s why I said ANY Schnauzer owner will tell you😜 They are the best! 🏆
They are trainable . . . on their own own terms . Mine got me trained very well.
Haha, very true! They have to think it’s their idea all along or they won’t do it!
I have a 9 week old named Ollie. My fist schnauzer. And I always think he’s training me. 🤣
You nailed it¡! You've just described our 8mth old Luna to a T. Lovely video.
Aww thank you so much!♥️
You could never talk me out of a schnauzer lol ❤ my favorite breed!
I know! Just too much personality 😊♥️♥️♥️💖💖💖
Anyone who falls in love with a schnauzer is family 🙏❤️
Well Done! My tip, reviewing commands and obedience needs to have regular practice. Frequency depends on your Schnauzer. Every day reinforcement is best. Scotty is a star! Have a blessed day. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖✝
Very good tip! You have to keep up the obedience commands or they’ll forget 🥴 Thank you! 🤩❤️
We just love our Schnauzer my husband and I are both in our 80ts and still healthy ...our Oliver is 5jrs old and our first Schnauzer and we hope to grow old together❤🐾🐾.through our life we had Bullterriers an Boxers.....we now live in a retirement village within the an estate, and we are allowed to have pets..and here is so many Schnauzers and many other types of small dogs...Oliver is very sociable walk him twice a day ...I found that you have to be very firm in discipline but loving ❤ then you will have the most wonderful dog ....they are one of the most intelligent dog breeds... never shout at them they have small "heart "...their anxiety will easy as they socialize with other breeds and small children...I groom Oliver myself..just could not get myself to leave him at a doggy groomer but that is just me❣️Good lucky wiith lovely Schnauzer 🐾❤
Thanks for sharing your story! Oliver sounds like a real sweetie🩵 You’re doing all the right things and giving him the best life ever! Walking him, disciplining him, treating him right. Sounds like he’s got good parents😜🤗🩷💜🩵🤗
10:15 PM This is my third Schnauzer. This guy is full of personality. He thinks he is my Emotional Support Dog, constantly watching over me and loves to make me laugh!❤
I totally agree , i have had 8 miniature schnauzers and also 1 standard schnauzer. They know how to manipulate with those eyes. I love all of my schnauzers starting at age 4 and now I am 64 and i just can't be without my schnauzers.
Wow you are a Schnauzer pro!🤩 They add so much joy to your life and I’m sure you can attest to that! Thanks for sharing your experience😊 💖
Prospective owners should be aware that we tend to emit a shrill noise when excited 😂
Oh I’ve got videos of Scotty making those noises 🤪
😄, they are abit of drama queens for sure. She cries like I went missing for years every morning when I let her out. I give her a cuddle or 2 then she would be happy to go out side the yard for some bird chasing
@@keirenleyep drama queens 👸 😂😂 Scotty too!
Blood curdling squeals!
Schnauzers are the BEST !
Thank you! I agree 🥰💝
I’m on my fourth schnauzer. I think my current baby is high energy. The other 3 were pretty regular. Definitely stubborn but nothing that cuteness doesn’t overcome any issues ❤️❤️❤️
Yeah some just have different temperaments. Scotty is also very energetic and high strung🤣 But also the smartest dog I’ve ever had. And you’re right about the cuteness factor!😜♥️
Aways best to know what you’re getting into with an animal. Many are easy, many are tough, most require more than many think. If you’re up to the task then the toughest of breeds can be amazing pets. If you aren’t, then that’s ok. Acknowledge it and find one that you can. Maybe you’ll work your way up to them, or maybe you’ll find a breed you never knew you could love so much! As long as you can provide the needs for the pup then you’ll have a happy and healthy companion!
Great advice!😊🙌❤
Very good 👍👍👍 maybe you do part 2 with more facts . and also maybe talk about your memories and habits and personality of your first dog and of course scotty and your senior maltese 😊 only giving you ideas for future videos and of course part two to Scotty relaxing in style 🤗🤗🤗
Thank you for the great tips Steve! I’ll keep those in mind 😉
I did a bit of research before getting one. Personally I would preferred larger dogs but my schnauzer is one of the best breeds for my living arrangement. My dog is indeed intelligent, sensitive so training is easy. I walk my dog twice a day, before and after work. Training at every meal time. She has never touched stuffs that not belong to her. She does not have separation anxiety as long as you give her opportunities to do her bussiness outside she won't be an issue with house training either. Food allergies and grooming will cost you so be prepared. Although I still referred the boxer like looks I am glad I have her. She is way easier to care for than the poodle mix btw.
Thanks for sharing your experience! I also like bigger dogs too. Mini Schnauzers are great for someone whose situation calls for a smaller dog. Your girl Schnauzer sounds so well behaved😊💖
Schnauzer's are actually very smart. They rank 12th in terms of intelligence among 138 qualifying breeds. They were measured upon a specific type of intelligence called "obedience and working intelligence." They were evaluated on how quickly they learned a new command and how well they retain their obedience training. Teach them something with 15 repetitions. Doing this 2x/day and it won't take long for your Schnauzer to learn new things. They are very good problem solvers. That's what made my oldest (3.5 yrs old) a master escape artist. If your Schnauzer wolf's their food down get slow feeders for them. The larger size Kong is excellent. There are other slow feeders too. I have a cool one that you fill a cylinder and they roll it on the floor and the food comes out of a hole. It's now their favorite. Another one they like is a ball that rolls around on the floor. It gives them sometthing to do and helps with the wolfing food down. If they don't pay any attention to them don't think they are going to starve and put their bowl back down. When they get hungry enough they will get curious and figure it out. That is what they do best is figure the problem out. I don't get the flat bowls that have smaller compartments in it. I feel they can still eat pretty fast with them. The video is spot on.
Aww thank you for sharing that info! It’s so true! I love to teach scotty a new trick. He’s currently learning “speak”. And you are so right about them inhaling their food!🤣🤣🤣😜
My late shcnauzer thought he was the emperor and he was.
👑 😊
The Google algorithms decided that I needed to view this video ☺️🤣 And it was absolutely brilliant, so true in everything that you said 🤭 But I do have to ask one thing though….. What’s Scotty like when it comes to dinner time? Does he eat like he’s never seen food before? 🤣 😂 Keep up the good work, have a blessed weekend 🙏🏾
Aww I’m so glad you found the video helpful! Good question, during dinner time, Scotty’s memory is wiped of all previous meals he’s ever eaten and he becomes a starving puppy who’s never eaten a day in his life 😜 and he inhales it in about 3 seconds, unless I use a slow feeder.
@@ScottytheSchnauzer I love the ‘Inhale’ analogy 😂 I guess it’s just the breed eh. But in saying that though he does have boiled warm water with every main meal so it’s not as harsh on his throat 😊 You, the family & Scotty have a blessed week 🙏🏾
Considering becoming the mother to a miniature Schnauzer but live in an apartment so will need to train him not to bark! The breeder said they aren’t to vocal, anyone else had similar experiences?
Mini Schnauzers are one of the most vocal and bark prone breeds. But it’s not a terrifying bark. It’s their terrier nature. But I’m glad that you’re thinking about it early on, that’s the best! 😊♥️🐾
We have two boys Rocky and Charlie. They are also not really used to kids and will nip them if they are moving to quickly. Other than that they are awsome dogs. Dont know how to explain it. They are just different.
Yes, Scotty also goes after kids feet if they’re moving to fast! So he’s not the only one 🤣 Maybe it’s the terrier in them? But still he’s a great family dog!♥️ I’m sure yours are too!♥️🐾😊
I would like to know what food you feed Scotty. I’m always switching my girls food, trying to find the right one because of known stomach issues the mini has.
I’ve fed Scotty: Organix certified organic dog food (he did great with that), but there is availability issues on Amazon.
Might find at local health store.
Also fed Ziwi lamb (canned or dehydrated).
Carna4 is also a good food! It’s from Canada. All the good foods are expensive 💸💸💸💸.
Look at rachelfusaro.com for more in depth recommendations. I know for sensitive stomachs there is a brand called Medicus that is also a whole food dog company and makes a recipe for dogs with stomach problems. 😊
I’m in BC Canada, those brands don’t sound familiar to me, but I will check them out. So many companies saying how wonderful and healthy their food is and you find out, down the road it’s not true.
@@marydaunaisyeah I only know of these brands from doing hours of painstaking research. Scotty doesn’t have any health problems right now thankfully. I have a senior dog who is on Royal Canin gastrointestinal formula. Vets will say that’s the best brand. I’m more of a whole food, holistic person though. But I’ve always heard great things about Carna4, which is made in Canada.
But I would recommend checking this out as a guide: www.rachelfusaro.com/dogfood/
OMG is that an A.I generated voice 🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤔 it’s my real voice.
NEVER EVER BE MEAN TO ANIMAĹS😢
Of course! 💖 Gotta be patient with them.
You shouldn't dress dogs!!
Sorry, but you’re going to see a lot of that on my channel. 😉
Love your video! I was just curious… how is Scotty with houseplants? I see that you have a nice houseplant that goes down to Scotty’s level. Does he ever try to eat them? We are thinking of adopting a Schnauzer and we’ve been researching how to provide the best possible home for a young Schnauzer. Thank you very much!
That is a good question! Scotty has literally never tried to eat or destroy houseplants! He’s just not interested so thankfully it’s not an issue. I don’t think he even knows they’re there🤣🌱 Now fresh flowers 💐 he is interested in but again, it’s not an issue!
@@ScottytheSchnauzer Thank you very much for your response. We’re very excited about adopting a Schnauzer puppy. We submitted our application for adoption and they’re reviewing it and will stop by to see our neighborhood, home, and what prep work we have done. They are very thorough (thankfully and rightly so) with potential homes for their dogs. Thanks again. Take care!
