THINGS TO DO WITH SCHNAUZERS

Barn Hunt

Schnauzers are a great breed at Barn Hunt, where they find rats hidden among straw courses they have to climb and tunnel through.

SCENTWORK

Scentwork is a sport where dogs use their incredible noses! They can do this for a variety of scents like birch and clove, or even their owners scent.

SWIMMING

Our dogs love to swim! Schnauzers are strong swimmers whether it be in a pool, at a beach, or in a lake. The sport of dock diving takes this to another level dogs launch off a dock retrieve a toy and swim back.

TRICKS

Schnauzers are brilliant problem solvers, they love to learn and perform tricks!

AGILITY

Agility involves dogs running, jumping,  obstacles, and partnering with their human to navigate a course. It's a challenging but addicting sport.

FAST CAT AND COURSING ABILITY

Does your dog like to run fast? A Fast Cat competition involves a dog chasing a lure, normally a white trash bag, pulled rapidly on a line for 100 yards. Coursing is a 600 yard circular course which may be unfenced. Schnauzers love this!

FARM DOG

Schnauzers were originally developed to be an all around farm dog in Germany, they excel at farm tasks including caring for livestock and guarding. AKC clubs offer "Farm Dog" tests to evaluate if our dogs can perform the same tasks today.
