About the Miniature Schnauzer

The Miniature Schnauzer was developed in Germany during the late 19th century by crossing the Standard Schnauzer with smaller breeds such as the Affenpinscher and possibly the Poodle and Miniature Pinscher. The goal was to create a smaller version of the Standard Schnauzer that could serve as a farm ratter and companion. The breed quickly proved capable of both tasks.
