The Standard Schnauzer (Mittelschnauzer) is the progenitor of the Giant Schnauzer and Miniature Schnauzer that originated in Germany in at least 14th–15th century. These dogs were originally bred to be ratters, guard dogs, and allpurpose dogs on German farms.

The Standard Schnauzer is a mediumsize dog who inspired early breeders to develop two more breeds who look just like himthe Miniature Schnauzer and the Giant Schnauzer. It's no wonder breeders wanted to duplicate this dog in different sizes for different needs. Standard Schnauzers are not only highly intelligent and excellent family companions, but they're also uniquely handsome, even aristocratic, in appearance. Renowned for their guarding abilities and devotion to their families, they're also often described as a dog with a human brain.

Squarely built, these dogs have stiff, wiry coats that shed little with minimal "doggy" odor. A hallmark of the breed is the face furnishings, which include arched eyebrows and a bristly mustache and beard. The highset ears are carried erect when cropped but are otherwise Vshaped, carried forward with the inner edge of the ear close to the cheek.

Standard Schnauzers typically carry themselves with a great deal of selfimportance. They are agile and athletic and excel in performance sports such as agility, tracking, and herding. Highly versatile, they're good hunters and have been used as retrievers both on land and in the water. They're also excellent herders of sheep and cattle, one of their original jobs as an allaround farm dog. In fact, many Standard Schnauzers have earned American Kennel Club (AKC) herding titles.

With their working dog heritage, they also make excellent watchdogs. Standard Schnauzers are territorial, quick to bark at any disturbance. They have a deep bark that sounds as though it should come from a much larger dog and are vigorous in carrying out their watchdog duties. Their personality is sometimes mischievous, always clever, and inevitably dignified. They learn quickly and want to please, which makes them great therapy dogs. And when socialized with children, they make an excellent and affectionate companion for the younger members of the family.
