Dog Breed Miniature Schnauzer Review

I am here to talk about my Mini Schnauzer Tucker. He is now 7 years old. He is salt and pepper colored and slightly overweight if I must say. They say the average weight of an adult Miniature Schnauzer is approx. fifteen pounds. Tucker however weighs twenty-seven pounds. We are working on that though because that is to much! Tucker loves to be petted but I will say he is not kid friendly. I have to watch him closely around my little cousins because he doesn't like the running around and other commotion. He has snapped at small kids before. I'm not sure if this is a normal thing or just his temperment. He is very head strong or stubborn if you will. If he has to go to the bathroom..he will decide where! Even if that means crossing the road. I can be screaming at him, worried he is going to get hit..and he ignores that he hears anything! He also has skin problems. He has to get a shot every summer due to skin allergies. He itches alot and can itch bald spots on himself. I am pretty sure that skin problems is a regular afflication for mini schnauzers. This will be a breed that I continue to own throughout my life because they are to cute and mostly sweet! ha
