Breed Information
Overview
The Schnoodle is not a purebred dog. It is a cross between a Schnauzer and Poodle. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and understand that you can get any combination of the characteristics found in either breed. This designer breed is recognized by ACHC (American Canine Hybrid Club).
The Schnoodle is a designer dog breed that was developed in the 1980s in the United States. They are a cross between a Schnauzer and a Poodle. There is a Mini Schnoodle, but this Schnoodle is a cross between a Standard Poodle and a Standard or Giant Schnauzer. As a mixed dog breed, the Schnoodle can take on any combination of traits from one or both of the parent breeds.
Overall, Schnoodles tend to be intelligent and loving dogs with playful personalities that are also devoted to their families. In addition to being a beloved family pet, the Schnoodle can also be found working as a therapy dog. This dog breed may not be recognized by the American Kennel Club, but they are recognized by other professional dog organizations like the American Canine Hybrid Club, Designer Dogs Kennel Club, and more.
Temperament
Schnoodles are cute and adorable dogs no matter their size. They also tend to be an ideal family pet as they get along with children, other pets, and other dogs. Their playful personality and friendly disposition make them a great addition to a family.
The Schnoodle is also loyal and affectionate to their families. Because they are so friendly, they also tend to be quite excitable and may be prone to jumping up on people in their excitement. Structure, training, and socialization early on can help curb this behavior.
