The Standard Schnauzer is a medium-sized German working dog. They are intelligent, active, and loyal, and make great family pets. Standard Schnauzers have a distinctive wiry coat that can be black, salt-and-pepper, or black-and-silver in color. They are easy to train and require plenty of exercise and mental stimulation to stay healthy and happy.
