My boyfriend and I are currently looking for a miniature schnauzer, i came across your page via AJC.com website and was very impressed. I have never owned a mini schnauzer and am really excited to learn more about there breed. I have been a dog owner all my life and am currently w/o a 4 legged companion, as an animal lover, that leaves me very lonely. Having 2 small children i am careful to make my decision as to the temperments of this breed. Can you please get back w/ me and give your suggestions? Thank you for time and i hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas n A Happy New Year! Thank You, Kelly
