By Arthur Butler


Right now you are probably looking for a new pet or a replacement one. A few of your friends have suggested that you should get a miniature schnauzer since it will make quite a lovable companion, and thus you are thinking about it. Before you do plunk down your hard earned dollars to get this dog from miniature Schnauzer puppies San Diego sellers, please do read on in this article for more information which may aid your decision.

Buying a new puppy can set you back anywhere from five hundred dollars to as much as two and half thousand dollars or more. This of course are the average prices based on demand in different states in the country. Expect to pay much more than this if you want to get a show quality dog, or one that has been born out of champion bloodline parents.

In general a miniature schnauzer will make a good family pet, and will usually get along with other pets in the house also. However, it is a bit on the playful side, and you may mistake it fighting the cat when it is really just being playful. However, if it does get into contact with another dog it does not know and it is of the same sex, then things may get a little awkward for they can get quite aggressive.

This dog is also very intelligent, and quite easy to train. However, as they are quite intelligent, they will get tired of rote and repetitive tasks. You have to be quite creative in training them so that their minds are challenged. Due to their getting bored quite easy, keep the training sessions short. It is also good to keep in mind that they do not respond well to punishment, and may hold a grudge on you for a long time.

This dog is not much of a shedder, as the surface hair is quite wiry. Due to it not shedding so much, people mistakenly think that it is hypoallergenic. Thus there are quite some wrong recommendations by people made to those with asthma to take on this dog. This is a mistaken notion that you should also not follow.

Be prepared to make a lot of visits to the vet with this dog, for it will have its fair share of medical complications. First off it will develop allergies on its skin that will give it a lot of bumps, which is something that is only peculiar to its breed. I will also develop bladder stone and heart problems as it progresses in age, and some will go blind prematurely also due to a genetic condition reserved for this breed also.

Regardless of the health issues that this dog faces, it is a fairly long live breed with a lifespan ranging anywhere from twelve years to fifteen years. This can be extended somewhat with the proper care and nutrition, so you have to pay close attention to what the vet will have to recommend.

This article has thus shown you some major considerations to mull over before you take on this breed as a pet. Just be sure to always do due diligence in terms of information before you take on any animal as a pet for it takes a lot of commitment and responsibility to be a pet owner.
