Schnauzer: meaning, definitions and examples

The word 'Schnauzer' comes from the German word 'Schnauze', which means 'snout' or 'muzzle', referring to the breed's distinctive facial features. This breed was developed in Germany in the 15th century, primarily as a farm dog, used for herding and guarding livestock. As the breed evolved, its appearance and function changed, with a focus on developing the Miniature and Giant varieties. The Standard Schnauzer, the original form, was widely recognized in Germany, and in the late 19th century, an official breed standard was established. Schnauzers gained popularity in the early 20th century and have since become favored companions and family pets due to their loyal and loving nature.
