My friends Robert and Linda got themselves a Schnauzer puppy. His name is Hobart, Hobie for short. He is about 8 inches long, and very friendly. He doesn’t bark yet. He is so cute. 
Hmmm…
that’s an awkward size - too big for badminton, too small for football…
wait a couple of weeks, then punt
Well, when Hobie finds his voice, watch out!
Schnauzers are great little dogs. They are really hyperactive, attentive, mischievous, possibly aggressive and nippy. My folks had three at one time: Shadow, Dusty, and Sky. Dusty was the first dog I ever taught to shake.
