The largest of the three Schnauzers, this breed can look very intimidating, especially with those brows and beard! They are strong-willed and powerful but are simultaneously kind and loyal. Because of their size, they may not be the best for families with small children, or for those with small spaces. They do need to be socialized at a young age, or can be aggressive towards strangers they don’t know. They can get to be around 95 lbs and live to be 12 to 15 years old.
