About the Standard Schnauzer
The miniature and the giant are both derived from the standard variety of Schnauzer. The oldest sibling, either black or salt and pepper in color, is good-natured and gentle.
Standard Schnauzers are lively dogs that are devoted to their owners and affectionate with children. Their senses are highly developed and they are very vigilant, although they do not bark much.
