2. Zoey

low maintenance Coat - Soft and Wavy
Zoey is an average sized miniature Schnauzer. Her puppies will be 14 - 20 lbs as adults. Zoey is spunky and has a clown-like personality. She likes to talk to us in little "half barks". She is super smart and easy to train. Her puppies would be well suited for therapy dogs.
3. Crystal

Coat type - Megacoat - thick and soft
Crystal is will produce puppies in the 13-15 lb range. She has a super thick megacoat and her face looks like a teddy bear. It is a small face very similar to my Coco. Like Coco she loves people so much, she will just flop over on her back for a belly rub, when she sees you. She is the most docile of all my dogs. Like the other girls she is super smart and trains very quickly.

About the Genetics of the White Color:
. I have had a few questions about whether White is a defect in the Schnauzer. The white gene does not carry any health defects. The white color in Schnauzers goes back to very early Schnauzer breeding lines. Although the white colored Schnauzer is not allowed in the AKC show ring, AKC does register White Schnauzers and recognize them as pure bred. White Schnauzers have always been allowed to show in the UKC dog shows in Europe.
The white color is not albino. Research has indicated that white and red come from the same gene but whites have a fading gene that hides the red color. I have seen some tinge of red color on young Schnauzer puppies that has grown out with age. Since the large Schnauzer was bred down by crossing it with the Poodle and the Affenpincher in order to get the Miniature size, it is not surprising that the recessive white gene that is found in the poodles, would also have been present in the early breeding lines or the Miniature Schnauzer.
When the White Schnauzer is bred to the Red Poodle the color produced will be shades of red....from creme to dark red. The red color gene is present in all the puppies. But the depth of red is determined by how much the fading gene is present. I have had reds that lighten with age and cremes that have darkened with age. It is an interesting color phenomena....but the shades of apricot are always beautiful!
