Schnauzers like people more than their own kind, not only because people can take care of them and give them eat and live. The main reason is that dogs and people are companions and establish a relationship. Dogs are very protective of their owners. Some dogs rescue children from water, a house on fire, or under a car. The dog will help its distressed or injured companion.

3. Territorial habits

Dogs have a territorial habit, that is, they occupy a certain range and protect them from intrusion by other animals. They use the secretions of the anal glands to give the feces a special smell, the sweat secreted by the sweat glands between the fingers and the scratches on the ground with their hind limbs as territorial markers.

The Schnauzer also has vanity and likes to be praised for it. When it does a good deed, or does some small skill activities, you clap your hands to praise it, touch it, and the Schnauzer will be as satisfied as eating a sumptuous meal. Dogs are also shy, if they do something wrong or their coat is too short, the schnauzer will hide somewhere and come out when hungry.

5. Afraid of fire

Schnauzers are afraid of fire, so they don't like anything that smokes, such as striking matches, smoking, etc. There are many examples on Madden's official website to remind us that smoking will make dogs hate you very much.

6. Likes

Schnauzers like to smell anything. Sniff for territorial markers, new dogs, food, poison, feces, urine, and more. When a dog is out roaming, we often see it constantly urinating or squatting to poop, spreading its feces along the road. And the Schnauzer relies on these stinky signs to walk.

7. Dislike

Schnauzers dislike alcohol the least. When injecting dogs in a veterinary hospital, they behave well before rubbing alcohol. Once rubbed with alcohol, the dog smelled the odor, and the fur stood on end and growled anxiously.
