I thought you would like to see a photo of my little family. There's my husband Brian, myself and Asti our mini Schnauzer. The photo was taken in Dorset by Sue (Schnauzerbabe). I don't know about anyone else's mini but Asti is a right poser when she knows her photograph is being taken as you can see from the photo. I don't know if any other mini Schnauzer members would like to include a photo of themselves with their mini or mini's, c'mon be brave ........ I have. Alison xx
Hi Alison, I haven't got a Schnauzer, but I just wanted to say what a lovely photo. We regularly meet a "tall" Schnauzer on our walks. Are they called standard something? Sorry to show my ignorance
Thanks Nippy,, it could be a Standard you see, they are a little taller than the mini's but there again it could be a Giant, they are the same size as a Giant Poodle.
we don't have a family shot but this is me with Lexi on a walk in a Dorset lane and this one is Bern and Lexi in Wales Sue
Lovely to see you all , bet the dogs had a great time Here is Chloe on holiday with Zak my sons puppy in Wales.. The cottage we stayed in had a huge enclosed garden for the dogs and a lovely view of the sea, the dogs were fascinated by the horses and tame pet sheep in the paddock.. And a couple of Chloe taken at home in May , she is just the sweetest natured little girl..
Thanks Vicki, glad you like them. Wow! those photos are brilliant Mini. Hasn't Chloe grown since the last time we saw a photo of her, she looks even more like Asti . She's a beautiful little dog, and Zak looks a stunner as well, I'm taking a guess at this ...... but I would say a Springer Spaniel, am I right? The scenery is absolutely stunning, what a beautiful place in Wales, mind you, Asti would be barking all day at those two horses (the little tyke she is). Love the photos of Lexi as well Sue.
I was just suddenly thinking Mini, you know what breeder Asti came from, Chloe isnt from the same one is she? The only reason I ask is because she does look very much like Asti.
Chloe is gorgeous Mini she has really grown the thing that makes me laugh about schnauzers they always look so serious don't they even when they are at their most cheeky, The photo's are lovely and the spot you had in Wales looks idillic and you got Sun (what is that you may ask ) Sue and Lexi
Thank you everyone.. . Alison sorry I can't remember what breeding Asti's is, she could well have be related to Amy and Millie but probably not Chloe. This is Chloe's sire he is an International Champion, her dam is lovely too and has done quite a bit of winning .... ..yes Zak is a Springer from working lines and full of mischief.. Sue that was the only bit of sun we had , it rained endlessly, both dogs like water so that was ok.
Oh yes I know of the Briarbays I doubt Chloe is closely related to Asti though because she is mainly US breeding on both sides, but Amy probably came from the same lines as Asti who I guess may go back to Ch Travelmors US Mail
Sue (Schnauzerbe) has just told me about that mini Schnauzer Pedigree search website, where you can go on there and check out the Pedigree of your dog. I thought I would have a look at Asti's Pedigree and look up all her ancestors etc. Sounds a good site doesn't it
Oh they're lovely I have quite a soft spot for them and have two enrolled on my September classes! I always said if I had a small dog it would have to be a mini schnauzer!
Hi guys, Loved seeing all your pics, I didn't think I had any pictures of me and Pepper but looking through iPhoto I found a couple... [attach-center]4103[/attach-center] Pepper and I at a fun dog show about to have a go at agility (I think I should stick this one on the fridge to remind me to go on a diet! ) [attach-center]4104[/attach-center] Pepper sitting nicely waiting for a treat, Gozo hasn't quite managed that yet [attach-center]4105[/attach-center] In the garden with my daughter the day we brought Gozo home, as you can see Pepper was very interested in the new arrival. J
Lovely pictures of you all J isn't Gozo tiny there, he makes little Pepper look large Pepper has the same harness as Chloe I think they are excellent and must feel lovely and comfortable for a dog compared to a collar and lead.
Thanks Mini, I do think that the purple fleece looks really good on a black dog, although having said that Gozo has a tiny blue one that looks pretty good as well! And they not only look good, Pepper was a real on-lead puller before but with the lead attached to the harness she is a good as gold. I've recommended them to so many people I should be getting a commission! J
Lovely photos of you J with Pepper and Gozo. I think purple is a great colour for black and pepper and salt coloured dogs. I'm after a purple collar for Asti. What treats do you give to them both? I can only give Asti a few low fat treats as she suffers with Pancreatitis.
