What does a Mini Schnauzer look like?

A Miniature Schnauzer has a distinctive appearance characterized by a wiry, double coat and rectangular-shaped head with bushy eyebrows, a prominent beard, and a distinctively pointed mustache, giving them a dignified yet playful expression. Their ears have historically been cropped to stand erect, however e ar cropping is a controversial practice and has been banned or restricted in many countries due to animal welfare concerns. There is no medical reason to crop a dog’s ears, and vets do not recommend it. Similarly, their tails have historically been docked to a short length, although this practice is medically unnecessary and widely discouraged by veterinarians and animal advocates.
