Reviews From Schnauzer Owners:

“I adore Schnauzers & having lost one a while back decided to go from a lovely Mini to a handsome Standard. The book was recommended & I wasn’t sure what to expect. Well, I loved it - it really gives an insight into each schnauzer type & is FULL of really useful insights & advice. It really has been the best book I’ve purchased in a long time. Obviously, Linda Whitwam & her contributors really love & understand the breed & share that understanding in a very helpful non-condescending way,”

JUSTIN CORP, UK

“Great book for anyone who has or is thinking of adding a schnauzer to their family. I have a 5-month-old Standard Schnauzer. I was pre-warned that the breed can be challenging so found this book a great source to confirm I am on track to provide everything she needs so we can thrive together. I have also had Mini-Schnauzers previously & found the information on this breed accurate, but also useful for drawing out differences I should expect to see & apply as my Standard pup matures,”

SOPHIE S., UK

LISA S. VANCE, USA

“A must!! This is a fantastic book for all information on Schnauzers. It seems to cover all you need to know about the breed. We have had our mini for only 2 days, & have read this book through & through, & so has my 12-year-old son. We feel so much more knowledgeable now,”

POL, UK

“I have a miniature & giant schnauzer & found this book extremely informative, I would definitely recommend to anyone considering these breeds as they are alike in name only, each has its very own unique characteristics. This book highlights them perfectly! ”

ANDREW B., UK

“Great reference book. I have never owned a dog before & am thinking about getting a mini schnauzer. Found this book so practical & useful with lots of great information. I'll also be able to use it as a reference book when I get my little dog. Would recommend this book to anyone thinking of getting a schnauzer as it covers all three sizes,”
