Origin, character, and ownership of the Miniature Schnauzer dog. - 英語版 -

The Miniature Schnauzer is a breed of German origin, created in the late 19th century as a smaller version of the standard schnauzer. Their history began with the need for a small guardian dog that was especially skilled at catching rodents, as they were responsible for vermin control on farms and houses. They crossed the Afopinscher and German terrier breeds to establish a breed with superior intelligence, an active character, and a compact body shape. In the early 20th century, the breed was officially recognized under the name "Miniature Schnauzer" and became popular in the United States and other countries. #Miniature Schnauzer#dog
