Sure buddy

@@billzusner4873 yep. Just made it up. Come on by some time and find out.

Wow fantastic.. Beautiful brilliant dog! Did she get hurt by the glass?

@@Misslisasolutions I called her off before she went in. She’s fine. She acted like it was just a drill. 😊

Nice

Sounds like a great doff!

Do you one sharing your breeders info? @njw1977

Dear black giants are pure gold

Awesome dogs! Thanks for the comment

I’m so sorry for your loss!! I have a miniature schnauzer named Roscoe. This is our family’s first Breed of schnauzer and we LOVE it. We normally always preferred Rottweilers.

2 Esdras 2: 31 -100 ''''''''''''''''

Our boy, Baron, went to 139, and truly was all muscle, never soft or OVER weight, and actually looked trim and fit! He was from an excellent breeder; so, some excellent genetics were on his side for health and temperment. Still, he was defiinitely strong-willed. We were very, VERY careful to socialize and train (with whole-family-consistency) at a very early age, and throughout life. He was loved by the entire neighborhood! Lived 12 years. Died on his birthday. Thrived despite a few toe cancers, but ultimately succumbed to osteo sarcoma in his last 45 days. Went very fast. Miss him terribly. He was my stalwart pal!

Thanks for the comment. Awesome breed but can be a lot to handle

@@DogsNowChannel No problem. Credit where it’s due. Before we got our GS I did a lot of reading up & spoke to breeders aswell. He is exactly as I was told he would be. Lately I’ve seen some quite misleading puff pieces about owning a GS on KZfaq that concern me TBH. You have been accurate and fair. People need to realise what they are taking on. I would not recommend a GS with young children for example. Being honest with yourself avoids a lot of misery for both the owner & dog, there are scores of other dog breeds to choose from to get the perfect dog to suit your family, home, work/life balance. A GS is rare for good reason.

Jon. Interesting. I have a gigantic property so there is a lot of running room, etc, and was considering the breed. I believe all you said and have heard it before. Puzzling though, is that our neighbor in California had one and the dog was very friendly, to me and other neighbors. The owner, a small woman said that yeah, it needed training but that she'd never had any trouble with it at all and that very early on, it learned she was the boss. She said she'd heard that "who is boss" had to be reinforced EVERY single day, but that had not been true with her dog. Biggest surprise for me was that the dog seemed very calm. Energy yeah, but quite calm. I expected a wayward, headstrong whirlwind. Nope... Maybe she got a 'prince' of a dog, an outlier.

@@Allan-et5ig Hi. I understand what you mean about ‘be the boss’ and that’s correct sort of BUT that doesn’t mean you have to be mean or mistreat. We are not breaking the dog or anything at all like that. Never. It means showing lots of love, being very consistent with house rules, masses of socialization when young and forever TBH, being very confident and calm yourself in all situations because the dog needs YOU to lead otherwise it will make its own decisions and yes it’s an every day thing. Females are probably less dominant you dont say if your lady neighbours is/was. Sounds like she had good energy and that’s why her dog was the way it was. A big garden is a great advantage provided it’s secure. Our dog is naturally a teffiic guard dog but can clear a 5 foot fence easily if he is minded to so it’s got to be secure. Very strong prey drive. This all sounds like I am putting you off and in a way I am. I absolutely love my GS and he loves us, no doubt about it but these are not easy dogs. Since I left the breeders I have only seen one other GS in 6 years yet hundreds of other breeds out & about. That tells its own story. I would go and find a registered breeder, explain what you are thinking and see if they will let you go and meet some GS dogs, have a long chat and be honest with yourself. I would not buy a GS without seeing it’s mother, it’s home, knowing who the sire was. They are magnificent dogs, handsome, clever, funny, strong willed, powerful, so loyal, that want to be with you all the time. Best of luck with your decision.

slightly further…..forgot to add. Our GS is excellent with neighbours too and calm but he would not tolerate them coming into the garden or house unannounced at all and would run at them, and charge them, no doubt. All the postal people know about him. So to be 100% safe I keep our dog in the rear secure garden all the time where he can run in & out of the house if he wants, I always know where he is safe UNLESS I am with him out the front or out out. If anyone comes into the front he barks like mad through the metal see thru gate. You won’t miss him put it that way! Hope that makes sense.

Very. My boy is 6yrs old and 50 kg. He’s strong, athletic, and very determined.

​@@jfro5867lmao bruh. Whooooosh

You're welcome 😊

LOL, Just saw this Julie, ours opens doors too, he jumps up and wraps his front paw over the handle to open it. So I’ve put draw bolts on a couple of doors to keep him out of the bedrooms! My wife would go nuts ( with me I might add not the dog he gets away with anything) if he jumped all over the bed with muddy feet.

Good info! Thanks for sharing

@@jfro5867 lol 😆 Ours also used his nose to jingle on the back door to go in and outside. My Hubby would not let any of ours in the bedroom, because of the mud. Absolutely 💯 Love this Breed.

Unfortunately a second dog doesn’t help with anxiety. What does tend to help is crate training and a vest, something that makes them feel tight and secure.

Awe, my dog is the best but still gnaws on my pillows when I'm gone 😢. He has his on and if i put it on the couch he'll use that instead of my sleeping pillows. In wish i could take him everywhere. ​@@tribequest9

You have to get there tail docked.

@@julieseifert4680you don’t

Giant schnauzers are a ton of work and require almost a 24/7 commitment. There are rescue organizations for this breed, because many people cannot handle them. Unlike a mini, a giant will totally change your lifestyle. They’re very loving dogs, but not for most people. I speak from experience I’ve had both types of schnauzers.

My mini schnauzer dog don't like kids. Schnauzers don't like noise, shout....in my opinion this breed of dog is cute, nice and have a lot of energy 😅 they likes to be the center of attention,they are gentle but they have a character, and they don't tolerate harsh touch 😅 All the breed schnauzers have the same character but i think GS are calmer than mini schnauzers 😅. My dog is jelaous of attention 😅 I think if a small kids would piss him off the dog will go to hide 😅 sorry for my english 😅 this is not my language

We have a 6 month old giant schnauzer and a 6 month old german shepherd. Our giant is extremely friendly and playful but it is a VERY physical play to say the least. She learns new commands with 10-20 repetitions typically but keep sessions to 5-15 minute segments with play and praise between😂 the activity and mental stimulation required for giants is very high….i put in 6-11 miles on foot every day typically so I can’t imagine what our pups put in🤣 we have 17 and 11 year old girls and our 11 year old would have had a lot of trouble handling our giant 5 years ago…but if you do not leave a younger child unsupervised i would see no issue at all👍 natural property protection instincts started showing at 3.5-4 months old(but warms up to friends n family very quickly) we have been socializing in public since 3 months old and she does quite well with external stimulation. All in all i would recommend a giant schnauzer in a heartbeat as long as you have TONS of time to devote to the pup and a good sized yard😁👍

@@nibiru9035 thank you a lot.

We got our GS when he was 9 weeks old, trained him ourselves. My brother (much younger than me:) was 18 months old, my sister was yet to come. Our Short has NEVER made any harm to either of them, not even unintentionally. He was extremely big and strong, even for this race, but equally delicate and careful with kids. Sometimes they happened to pull his ears (or tongue!) and stick fingers in his nose or eyes, as very little children can do. He just sighed and moved aside. I don't know any other GS living with toddlers, so I cannot guarantee its always the same. But ours was an example of goodness.

@@domikm1767 thank you a lot for your feedback. Out of curiosity, how old are you with these younger siblings of yours??

Giant Schnauzers are pretty on-par with German Shepherds as far as strength goes. Ours was a protection dog that did quite a bit of cart-pulling. I was around 220lbs at that time(he's passed away, and I've lost weight), and he was content to pull that for as long as I ever asked him to. For context, he was about 105lbs at his heaviest point. I'be owned purebreds of 6 different breeds in my life. If I could start over from the beginning, I would have started and stuck with Giant Schnauzers, and never looked back. They are large but not unmanageably so, very trainable, can learn a lot of different jobs/sports, very loyal, standoffish with strangers... there are too many positive traits to list. A truly outstanding breed.

Hmm. I also wonder if the ground is down and the sky is up.

Damn strong. Needs an even stronger handler!!!

They are incredibly powerful.

They would kill a bastard like you in a second!

My words! After two Dobies i am now on my second Giant 😊

@@Keyser_Soze739 Nice, they're great dogs.

Thinking a Giant is human intelligent is a HUGE mistake! It just proves that your girl has tricked you into believing that because, believe me, she is a lot smarter than most humans😊

bull in a china shop!

100% agree. My 6 yr old male is 50kg and solid muscle. He’s always had raw food. I would not recommend one either unless you can totally devote your life to them. I love mine to bits but he’s not an ‘easy’ dog. Have spend countless hours especially when he was a pup socializing him and he is wonderful now and goes everywhere with me BUT he would be an absolute nightmare if he was badly behaved.

No they are not

@@tomfisher47 they're harder to train than other breeds

​@@ob1qtx421ha! Try beagles!

Socializing typically means getting them used to things outside of the home, not just in the home. And whatever you do, don't get 2 dogs at the same time unless they are bonded adults.

She is very smart, learnt all commands quickly as if she already new them and learn more. She always wants to engage with human and loves fetching ball.

No German shepherds need way more mental and physical stimulation than that it’s a working breed

I meant giant schnauzer

@@UnderDog748 are you dumb?

Well with the separation anxiety, it’ll be hard to manage. They could get destructive so will need to probably stay in a crate unless you have a big property and can let it run around outside. I’ve never had one but that’s my best guess on how to handle it. Getting them exercise before and after work can help a lot too. Wear them out.

If you're gone for 8hours a day, a dog is not for you period.

110 lbs actually but I’m not sure about the height. I have seen some online get up to 130 but that’s abnormal.

@@farriermaiden7289 oh cause on the akc website it says the most is 85lbs

I’ve wanted to own one for a while now, just want to make sure of how big they can get

@@treasurewilliams13 it does vary but I would just recommend that you see the parents of the dog before you buy a puppy to make sure they aren’t too big for you and so you can see the dog overall.

@@treasurewilliams13 mine is 70 lbs at 8 months

I agree fully! It are just things to know.

You saw something somewhere once and decided to let it shape your opinion of an entire country?
