I had a friend who was a professional dog trainer. Her favorite breed was the giant schnauzer. She had two of them at the same time. She loved dogs that were very hard to train. RIP, Kim, I really miss you.
Our Riesenschnauzer-girl challenges me every day. She is the most loving, forgiving and protective dog for our kids. But at the same time she reflects your mental state in training. If you perform poorly; she does. And vise versa. Let me tell you since we got her I am not taking s*ht from anyone! I adore her for that life lesson!
I love our gaint! He picks up commands very quickly! He is protective when needed but hes a very sweet boy. I groom him myself and it does take alot to groom but its worth it.
I would love your thoughts on the Bouvier. I had a female who was an incredible guardian with great intuition. Her growl alone deterred more than one prowler from remaining on our property.
Giant Schnauzers and Bouviers are both outstanding powerful guardians that don’t get near enough attention but they can be a bit aloof. Personally I love their that quality because they won’t just run over to anyone who calls them or except food from anyone one with a treat: they know who THIER people are and act accordingly.
It’s a good thing!! They are not nearly as popular. Which keeps the puppy mills and back yard breeders from messing them up! Trust me you do not want that to happen. The three breeds you listed, along with many others have been destroyed because of PM and BYB.
I have a 1.5 year old female Giant and she is INSANELY smart! Can’t even begin to describe her in one sentence because she’s a lot of things though 😂 I’ve had other dogs in the past but NONE like this one.. owning one of these has to be mad similar to owning a border collie (minus the collie’s hair type) frfr. But both breeds attempt to cross you up with their intelligence every day of there lives loool
100% right! I have a big girl GS . She is 10 now and just starting to relax a bit! 😅 One hour swimming in the river, another hour good walk and and some time to run free every day! Best dog you will ever have if you are ready to put in the time and effort. I learned to groom her, which is not too difficult if well trained.
Hey sir recently I've been thinking of getting an dog but on internet i saw some seizure videos of dog and i was kinda scared of that thing so i wanna ask that if every dog gets seizure if yes then on what conditions and how to deal with that, did any of your dogs got any seizure attack? Pls answer I'm so curious about this..
Lol I loved grooming my dog, Since he was a puppy, I would brush him every second day. Not sure how that is something negative. I would get it professionally groomed once in a while and then just keep trimming a little myself every weekend so I won't need professional grooming too often. If you love your dog, you would love doing all these things with and for them. Like dogs are not a painting to be acquired and just hung on the wall.
I have a giant schnauzer and he is the opposite of all that, now I’m not saying he’s wrong because some giant schnauzer’s may be like that but mine turned 4 2 months ago and he’s always been calm and he’s basically a giant puppy
Please get them used to you touching their paws and your family touching their paws Dog groomer here and corgis are known in my world as being one of the breeds horrible for nail trims along with pugs , bulldogs and rotors sometimes lol unless you desensitize as puppy
Grooming can be done far less often if we are talking about cutting hair. I'd say every three months is good. The advantage is they don't really shed so all the hair comes off at one time. Rather than tumble weeds of fluff all over the house. Brushing several times a week is definitely required though. As far as stubborn and strong, those are relative. I'd say my 'most' stubborn dog is my German shepherd. Then my Australian shepherd. My giant is more cautious, he is more likely to 'frezz or halt' when he is unsure of direction. He often times stops or backs up, sits and looks at me for more direction. I think often times this is confused with stubborn. I believe this is his cautious, guarding instincts. My German shepherds and Australian shepherd are always moving forward. If they make a mistake you have to walk them back around or have them circle back. My giant will actually reverse which is odd. My giant definitely doesn't have the OCD prey drive that the shepherds have. He's goofy, friendly, cuddly, inquisitive and lacks the obsessiveness of my other pups. I think it makes him an outstanding companion and watch dog.
@@porshajones5869 I can't say it any better than I think my Giant is my ideal dog. I love my other dogs but my German shepherd, at 13 barely lets me pet him. He requires that I gently toss the ball so he can chase it. Even In his old age he routinely plays too rough. If my giant gets a little rough, I gently say No, he is quite literally devastated. When I give him a command, he does it so fast that I've had trainers complement it. Funny thing is, it's not me. It's the dog. He wants with all his little heart to do whatever I ask. Just work with a trainer than Is gentle but firm. Trying to force a giant to do things is a dumb way to think about it. They stop and assess the situation because that's what guard dogs do. My shepherds charge in because they were breed to herd sheep and guard the flock. Neither of those things benefit from a dog standing still. Guarding a home, person or brewery though, you don't want them running off. I just think people forget what kind of dog they are trying to train. The grooming is a lot, but it's no more time dedication than properly grooming my German shepherd. The difference is that the shepherds is a little all the time. When a Giant you end up spending that same amount of time but all in one day, if you groom them yourself. If you pay someone, then it's even easier, though more costly. If you groom yourself, buy some really nice clippers meant for thick hair and it will be a lot faster. My first time took 4 or 5 hours. Now I can do it in under an hour.
A year ago a woman moved in to the semi detached house next to me with her 1 year old rottweiler and a female husky dog. After 9 months one of my cats went over to their side and it was killed. Yesterday another of my cats went over there fortunately she durvived but she is at the vets after he had to stich a puncture wound in her stomach. Is there a way to train these dogs to not hurt cats?
It's too late, you sold me on one in the last short 😂🤣 jk I have a 90+ lb Shepherd mutt (Anatolian, GSD, husky, etc) and she keeps me busy enough lmao. I could definitely handle a Giant Schnauzer if I had all the time in the world 💜💙💚
Best dog I've ever had. I love my shepherds but my Giant special. He doesn't have the energy of my shepherds. More like my friends rottweiler. Will play, run and loves games but gets tired far faster. Doesn't have the same mental stamina or obsessive nature.
Damn. Grooming costs in that range (way more than I spent on my own hair, incidentally) on top of food, doggy health insurance, toys, dog tax and possibly dog school is really brutal. I wonder, how many people seriously underestimate just how expensive their cute little puppy ends up being in the end.
Most of them lol If you want a fancy haircut it costs 2-3 hundred. If you just want a shave, it's roughly 1-2 hundred. I either cut or have my Giants hair cut every 3 months or so. Though I brush him for 5 ish minutes a day. I actually find it preferable to the shedding of my other dogs. As I don't need anymore tumble weeds of fluff. As far as food costs go, it's the most expensive part. This big pup costs more money in food than in healthcare, insurance, grooming and the rest combined. Even buying him initially was soon eclipsed by feeding him.
@@jonathanpark7658I’ve never seen a giant schnauzer in the shelter over here in southern Cali I’m a dog groomer and this is my top contender in the next breed I want to have. I had rescue pitties before and lost two to cancer . Have one left .
Too many. I’m a mobile groomer. I wish I could forget how many abused/neglected dogs I’ve groomed that were left uncut for 6-12+ months. Hair gets tangled and damp causing tons of skin issues. Even seen poop matted to dogs skin causing skin to rot away. Some people shouldn’t own animals
We have one and love him. Most obedient dog we ever had and he's an excellent guardian whilst looking like a fluff monster. BUT, we got him after having had German shepherds and Doberman in the past. He's definitely stubborn and not a dog for inexperienced owners ❤
We got our giant after having raised 3 Akitas. We did some research on the giant schnauzer before we got one.....We loved them all and still miss them every day....
100% agree with #1 which is what I said under your Top.3 reasons for getting this dog - how stubborn and strong-willed they are. I once had a client who had a Schnoodle, which was even worse because of the poodle mix with a schnauzer. The dog looked horrible because they couldn't take him to a groomer because they babied him and he became aggressive. As their dog walker, I was the only one he trusted and I actually was able to convince a friend who was a groomer to at least shave off all the mats and long hair that he had with me holding him and having him muzzled. It took us an hour and a 1/2 just to do that but he looked amazing and felt so much better. I was the only one who could ever clip his nails as well because he knew I was in charge and he trusted me.
Just buy a pair set of grooming scissors and a clipper for the dog. You can maintain a semi professional looking cut easily at home. UA-cam has hundreds of followers along tutorials by pro dog groomers and as long as your dog is well behaved you will be able to do whatever you want to the dog
I have a 4 month old G-schnauzer. She is very smart and energetic. Stuggling to get her to properly walk on a leash instead of pulling. Still really likes to bite. But other than that she learns well.
I must have the right bloodlines. I breed miniature schnauzers and that are not stubborn at all. They are very willing to learn and catch onto things fast.
Because Mini Schnauzers and Giant schnauzers are entirely different breeds. Mini Schnauzers are just smaller Schnauzers. But the Giants have been crossbred with 5 other protection dogs to create a Giant Schnauzer. So they still have Schnauzer in their name but they are not anywhere near the same temperament
Could you do these videos about presa canario and australian kelpie? 😊 I have 4yo presa canario/GSD/australiankelpie-mix, and I would love to show people these kind of videos about them because people don't understand how difficult these breeds can be. I'm lucky that Nuutti is happy-go-lucky personality and has food drive. He has been so much easier that my almost 9yo baby girl Nada, who is amstaff/shitbull/bullmastiff-mix 😅 I find it funny that my baby boy is so much like presa and kelpie, his GSD genes doesn't show much... He only shed like a GSD 😂
Please do a video on the catahoula leopard dog, I’ve had mine for about 2 Years and she’s smart as a whip, has energy like a crackhead, but knows how and when to be gentle, I think they’re one of the coolest breeds out there
The only experience I've had with Giant schnauzers are from a neighbor long ago. She had two. She also had an electrified fence and a front screen door open all day, every day. Any time anyone walked by the front yard, those dumb dogs would start barking like crazy, which would set off my neighbor something awful. She would start shouting, "SHUT! UP! SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!!!" This would go on many times a day. You knew when they were in the backyard because they would constantly run into the electrified fence and bark, which would then set off my neighbor, who would then start yelling, etc. All. Day. Every day. So I've never, ever liked schnauzers, giant or not.
#1 Reason not to buy a Giant Schnauzer - you might think you are buying a Giant Schnauzer but ended up buying a Russian Black Terrier, which just multiplied all of your above mentioned problems by a factor of 10.
Brush at least once or twice a week at minimum?? Your using the crappiest kind of brush for this breed btw 🤦🏻♀️ lol it costs so much because it’s going to be obviously matted if your only brushing once or twice at minimum with this kind of brush 🤣🤦🏻♀️
I love Schnauzer's so much, they are so loveable and friendly and fantastic with kids .My miniture has a tendency to have a mind of his own at times which is actually fun. But he's 11 years old and has fathered over 70 pups so I let it slide 😂😂. The giants look amazing, I've only ever seen one here in Ireland, beautiful animals.
Same apples to standard size. They're not a joke with their strength either. I had 2. Still have one and boy did they walk all over me 🙄. The only dogs I couldn't figure out. Not for everyone.
I've got a 9 month old Giant Schnauzer and this is all true, but I work with him everyday and he's awesome. I love this breed but also being so big and high energy can be difficult with small children, especially as a puppy.
I always agree with your opinions on each breed I’m curious what your thoughts on my favorite breed the poodle and thanx for these videos I show them to my clients
I had a standard schnauzer and loved him . Somewhat hyper and originally I cut his hair but later once a month I had it done for $50 but that was over 10 years ago. Not hard to train to me but I grew up with dogs but did have stubborn streak and very intelligent . Also had a Doberman at same time and he was slightly more willing to please and therefore trainable . The giant seems slightly more energetic and is obviously bigger but otherwise if only dog I think as long as not first full sized dog and you are decently active and outdoorsy should be fine .
Could you make a video for dogs that protect ❤ as a woman I want a safe dog that can protect me when I go out since self defense weapons aren't allowed in many places
Unless you are trying to do work, I wouldn't worry about working lines. They aren't popular enough to have the same health concerns as some other breeds where working lines are a prerequisite for healthy. Giants are the healthiest, followed by minis and then standards. They follow the same list in regards to ease of training as well. This is all from what I'm told and my limited experience. With that being said, I've had standards square their bodies and challenge me while I was visiting a friend. I was walking to the bathroom and had a rather bold 45 pound standard refuse to let me past lol Definitely talk with breeder, as different lines can have different personalities. I love my giant because he doesn't have the drive my shepherds do.
I can deal with stubbornness not the crazy exercise, i want a home protector thats also hypoallergenic this is the only guard dog i know that IS hypoallergenic
I'd say male poodle or giant schnauzer, everything else is too small or too big (komodor). A male poodle from a useful line is a formidable dog, and a massively more alert watchdog than a giant schnauzer. The gs is the one you want to survive a riot though, but many of them won't tolerate strangers doing anything sudden or threatening. I've had many of both, same reasons you cited. These coats need to be shaved totally tight btw, poodle and gs traditional cuts are a useless tradition and disgusting seasonally. Just do it yourself
I can't speak for all giants. Mine has the relaxed guard dog personality I've seen in Rottweilers. Gets tired after 15 minutes of chasing a ball. My shepherds can go for hours. My significant other was walking our giant one night. As they Walked up to the house, I came out from between our cars. My giant immediately got between us. Growled and barked. I was impressed, he immediately stopped once I said something and he realized who I was. He's a fantastic dog.
@@Inothanks171 I love the black terriers. I consider them a +50lb giant schnauzer, and I'm (approvingly) suspicious that they are actively being crossed into gs lines to add diversity. I like it bc the giants schnauzers were almost a total wipe after the world wars. Besides weren't the terriers just appropriated gs' at first? I know nothing about the bouvies though, I've maybe seen one once.

Reason 3 that’s all I needed lol. I think I’ll only own short haired breeds. Pitbulls, dogos, presa. They’re much easier to groom.
100% true. But are the best, love my Luna
Sharpai - Got him trained with almost everything but other dogs , and walking on lead WOW just lost with it
The only experience I've had with Giant schnauzers are from a neighbor long ago. She had two. She also had an electrified fence and a front screen door open all day, every day. Any time anyone walked by the front yard, those dumb dogs would start barking like crazy, which would set off my neighbor something awful. She would start shouting, "SHUT! UP! SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!!!" This would go on many times a day. You knew when they were in the backyard because they would constantly run into the electrified fence and bark, which would then set off my neighbor, who would then start yelling, etc. All. Day. Every day. So I've never, ever liked schnauzers, giant or not.
Thank you for sharing !
You talked me out of it.
Best dog I've ever had.
#1 Reason not to buy a Giant Schnauzer - you might think you are buying a Giant Schnauzer but ended up buying a Russian Black Terrier, which just multiplied all of your above mentioned problems by a factor of 10.
but they are lovely dogs, absolutely
SO GORGEOUS
Grooming is needed, but they dont shed :D
110 every 3 or 3.5 months for mine
Brush at least once or twice a week at minimum??
Your using the crappiest kind of brush for this breed btw 🤦🏻♀️
lol it costs so much because it’s going to be obviously matted if your only brushing once or twice at minimum with this kind of brush 🤣🤦🏻♀️
I love Schnauzer's so much, they are so loveable and friendly and fantastic with kids .My miniture has a tendency to have a mind of his own at times which is actually fun. But he's 11 years old and has fathered over 70 pups so I let it slide 😂😂. The giants look amazing, I've only ever seen one here in Ireland, beautiful animals.
Same apples to standard size. They're not a joke with their strength either. I had 2. Still have one and boy did they walk all over me 🙄. The only dogs I couldn't figure out. Not for everyone.
Keep up the great work.🎉❤😂😅
I've got a 9 month old Giant Schnauzer and this is all true, but I work with him everyday and he's awesome. I love this breed but also being so big and high energy can be difficult with small children, especially as a puppy.
I always agree with your opinions on each breed I’m curious what your thoughts on my favorite breed the poodle and thanx for these videos I show them to my clients
Great video
You don't want to get knots down to their skin that virtually require shaving off and leaving bald spots, you brush thoroughly once a day if not more.
Pls keep doing
I had a standard schnauzer and loved him . Somewhat hyper and originally I cut his hair but later once a month I had it done for $50 but that was over 10 years ago. Not hard to train to me but I grew up with dogs but did have stubborn streak and very intelligent . Also had a Doberman at same time and he was slightly more willing to please and therefore trainable . The giant seems slightly more energetic and is obviously bigger but otherwise if only dog I think as long as not first full sized dog and you are decently active and outdoorsy should be fine .
I like how they look, but I'm not getting one 😅
Me watching every one of your shorts that comes up even though I never plan on getting a dog 😮
Could you make a video for dogs that protect ❤ as a woman I want a safe dog that can protect me when I go out since self defense weapons aren't allowed in many places
Beautiful
I want
I see you found my dog 🐕
What about the medium size Schnauzer? Are those also working line?
Those are actually called standard schnauzer and they were also original breed as protectors before gaint ones and mini were made
Unless you are trying to do work, I wouldn't worry about working lines.
They aren't popular enough to have the same health concerns as some other breeds where working lines are a prerequisite for healthy.
Giants are the healthiest, followed by minis and then standards.
They follow the same list in regards to ease of training as well.
This is all from what I'm told and my limited experience.
With that being said, I've had standards square their bodies and challenge me while I was visiting a friend. I was walking to the bathroom and had a rather bold 45 pound standard refuse to let me past lol
Definitely talk with breeder, as different lines can have different personalities.
I love my giant because he doesn't have the drive my shepherds do.
I can deal with stubbornness not the crazy exercise, i want a home protector thats also hypoallergenic this is the only guard dog i know that IS hypoallergenic
I'd say male poodle or giant schnauzer, everything else is too small or too big (komodor). A male poodle from a useful line is a formidable dog, and a massively more alert watchdog than a giant schnauzer. The gs is the one you want to survive a riot though, but many of them won't tolerate strangers doing anything sudden or threatening. I've had many of both, same reasons you cited.
These coats need to be shaved totally tight btw, poodle and gs traditional cuts are a useless tradition and disgusting seasonally. Just do it yourself
I can't speak for all giants. Mine has the relaxed guard dog personality I've seen in Rottweilers.
Gets tired after 15 minutes of chasing a ball.
My shepherds can go for hours.
My significant other was walking our giant one night. As they Walked up to the house, I came out from between our cars. My giant immediately got between us. Growled and barked. I was impressed, he immediately stopped once I said something and he realized who I was.
He's a fantastic dog.
Love to bark ! However very, very Loyal!
Black Russian terrier’s and Bouvier de Flanders are hypoallergenic guard dogs too.
@@Inothanks171 I love the black terriers. I consider them a +50lb giant schnauzer, and I'm (approvingly) suspicious that they are actively being crossed into gs lines to add diversity. I like it bc the giants schnauzers were almost a total wipe after the world wars. Besides weren't the terriers just appropriated gs' at first?
I know nothing about the bouvies though, I've maybe seen one once.
