Schnoodle
Bewhiskered blend of two bright breeds
Schnoodles 101
Crossbred groupThe Schnoodle is a mix of two smart breeds but may be a little more independent than a Poodle alone thanks to the influence of the Miniature Schnauzer. They’re a great size for a family dog, slightly larger and sturdier than many of the toy breeds and crosses. This is a dog who loves family, but who’ll also keep you on your toes. Teach some fun tricks to keep that sharp mind occupied!

Schnoodle coat care and colors
Both the Miniature Schnauzer and the Toy or Miniature Poodle do best with regular grooming, and so, not surprisingly, do Schnoodles. Maintain the coat in between with weekly brushing and combing. Acclimate to nail trims as early as possible to prevent struggles later on.
