This is the fifth and last article I have written about working dogs. The subject of this article is the Giant Schnauzer, which is one of three of the Schnauzer breed. This dog belongs to the group of working dogs, while the other two are smaller and classified as terriers. The Giant Schnauzer is a large and powerful breed. It has a useful life of 12 to 15 years. His temperament can be described as intelligent, kind, and loyal. The dog can also be strong-willed, dominant, and powerful. The height of male and female Giant Schnauzers can be up to 28 inches, with weights of up to 79 pounds. The colors of this breed can be tan and black, salt and pepper, black or fawn.

The history of Giant Schnauzers dates back to 1832, when dogs were used in Bavaria to herd pigs and cattle. At the time, the breed was also known as oberlanders. The breed wasn’t actually standardized until 1923. Breeders used the Standard Schnauzer to help establish the German Giant Schnauzer.

There were basically two guys at the time, the Dutch and the Munich guys. After World War I, the breed declined in numbers.

This dog also makes a good family pet, but care must be taken that it is properly socialized. It is recommended that the dog be adopted by the family as a puppy, so that it can grow and socialize naturally. Although generally friendly by nature, this can sometimes turn into aggression with strangers. Both firmness and gentleness are required when raising these dogs. The dog has a powerful bite, which would be an unpleasant experience for a stranger or thief.

The Giant Schnauzer is susceptible to several diseases, including autoimmune disorders, Crohn’s disease, and anemia. Other health problems include incontinence and epilepsy. Due to its large size, this dog can also have bone and joint problems. It is important that the dog exercises daily.

The dog is good at various competitions. These include grazing, tracking and agility tests. The animal has a strong herding instinct that makes it a good competitor in these types of events. You can also train to participate in other competitions.

The Giant Schnauzer is a very good breed for the family and it also makes an excellent working dog. Like other working dogs that I have written about, this dog was developed in Germany. He is a good partner if he trains properly. Due to its gentle nature, it would make a good pet. It would also make a good watchdog to protect both family and property.
