The Schnoodle is a cross between two century old dog breeds, the Poodle and the Schnauzer. The desire for a hypoallergenic and low shedding dog, led to the development of the Schnoodle. This cross normally comes in three sizes: toy (10 inches or less and which is usually the result of a Toy Poodle/Miniature Schnauzer cross), miniature (10 to 15 inches and which is the result of a Miniature Poodle/Miniature Schnauzer cross) and standard (15 inches and up and which usually is the result of a Standard Poodle/Standard Schnauzer cross). This intelligent companion has a temperament that reflects the best of both breeding parents: playful, happy, affectionate and eager to please. The Schnoodles coat, like the breed parents doesn’t shed and is relatively dander free. The texture ranges from slightly course to silky soft with colors that range from dark solids to blends of the breed parents, with the possibility of changing over the course of the dog’s life. One draw back of the Schnoodle,
however, is that they often vocalize with a sharp piercing bark common to the Schnauzer breed. With patience and training, your Schnoodle will learn the appropriate times for such barking.
