Description:

We wanted a dog for our family and thought my time home over COVID would be perfect to trainrnan addition.  We had spent a long time researching breads and selected a giant schnauzer becausernthey are hair not fur (hypoallergenic), smart, athletic, obedient, and loyal. We spent over two yearsrnlooking before we purchased.  While we have spent countless hours with him training and learningrnwith him, ultimately, we've realized that we just aren't dog people.  He has had plenty of love andrnattention with us, as well as being engaged in exercise and behaving well to be an addition to ourrnfamily, we just don't enjoy pet life like pet lovers do. Being that he just turned one, we thought it fairrnto find a home with a tried-and-true dog loving family.  rnAbout Sergeant Schnauzer (Sarge),rn     He was born 6-14-20 to a couple who have always had giants and were not intending to breed.rnAs a result, he is  AKC registered.  We have photos of both parents, we were told his father was justrnunder 100lbs and his mother 85, he currently is at 65.  This boy is house broken, crate trainedrnovernight and while away during the day,  has no evidence of destructive behavior (other than thingsrnwhich he may perceive as toys IE: balls, stuffed animals, small plastic toys), he does not climb orrnsleep on furniture or our beds.
